skinny tires=less trimming, better turning, less rolling resistance, and when you air down they stretch out further, they may not be your thing looks wise but I honestly I prefer that to bulging tires sticking out an 1" past the fenders

not that it matters, my x is getting 265/75R16's

I run the wildpeak 255/85/16 MT01's . My ONLY complaint is there getting louder . I have 40k+ mile's on them ,the water channel's have wore off but the lug's are still big and meaty !!

Ooooo winch bumper is here for the pathy. Too bad its so freaking cold outside right now.
Speaking of winch, can I go straight to the battery with the winch wiring where this thing has the power sense on the ground wire to the body?

Will have to check that out. Just finished Letterkenny and was doing some marvel before diving fully into Shoresy.

It was hard to find. Obscure Canadian cop show. Not in any way a comedy. Turns out the library had all 4 seasons on DVD.

Thoughts of the final season of Letterkenny?

I did mine straight to the battery. I have a power cut off switch, just never got around to putting it in. Never had any power drain or other problems in the last 4yrs and it works like a champ still..

I enjoyed it, it somehow felt shorter than 6 episodes though. I want more.

So I take my truck to 4wp in town to get an alignment. I figure they'll know how to adjust the camber bolts, etc.

Guy comes out after about 10min and says the tie rods are so bad that he won't align it, that it wouldn't hold. Quoted me 1350$ to do it up, right then. I told him I'd wait..

That is what I got quoted to replace my leaky steering rack. Firestone

So. Tie rods are easy. Especially if you're doing both the inners and outers. Figure $100 in parts for Hitachi (OE) rods. Pull the old ones as one unit, size the new ones to the same length install. Ball joints can be hard because you may just have to do new LCAs. But you can get rock auto ones for cheap. OE camber bolts, if you have to cut the ones you have are $100. Then it just needs an alignment.

Absolutely.

The season 2 opener of 19-2 is really ufcking hard. It deals with a school shooting. And the way it's filmed is so ufcking real. It's brilliant television. But a really hard watch. I forgot how hard. Now I remember.

 

[Prime]

Now I need to find something funny to watch before I go to bed.

 

[Prime]

Airplane!

If they even bad to begin with, a lot of places sell parts to people that don’t need em cause sales

I mean. Yes. But there's also a contingent of shops that have to make money but also do good work. Have to balance it out.

Below the belt line is the automatic inflation nozzle. Pull it out and blow.

if you're honest with me you'll get my business next time, sell me a ball joint I don't need, I won't be back
