Hurricane preparedness, so I filled her up with gas, all they had was Diesel and 93 octane at $4.40 a gallon so the Silver Cloud is very happy!

Stay safe Loren!

I’m right dead in the middle of it in Live Oak next to lake city.
I was in Andrew when I lived in Miami. There were an estimated 200 tornados in that storm ….
Hunker down Doc!

Finally did this!

255/75/17.

Off a bronco, they do not rub. I did 33psi and it drives so smooth, like brand new shocks, acceleration feels like a big truck.

No tire rub, adjusted speedometer with forscan

It did make the bed height defect worse. It is higher. Even if only 1/4 inch

Looks good. That's the size I think I am going with when the factory tires wear out.

I would suggest returning the truck, that extra 1/4" is a deal breaker.

I will definitely try them off road, hunting season is starting. I do believe they will have a much better footprint than the old tires. Its only a 4x2 but the lockers help and momentum is king

Had to fill up down here in Boca, and I had this preconceived notion it was time to run a tank of 93 through her. $5.50 a gallon!!!!!!! WTF!?!?!?!? We only got some rain from the hurricane but we sure as hell got the hurricane fuel pricing. BS!

Ok, after getting the Bedrug in yesterday I used a fairly cool morning to build my sleeping platform in the bed. I used one 11/32 sheet of sanded plywood and 2 cheap 2x2x8s. $34. I already had a nice sleeping pad thaI used on my last road/camping trip. I modified it to fit into the corners and was able to use original cover.

My carpentry work was summed up in the movie Unforgiven with the following quote…….he ain’t scared, but he ain’t no carpenter.! ???

Will try using leftover plywood to build a folding shelf for front passenger side of the bed.
