Yup, first B2 to go on the UA. There was a Toyota guy from Michigan I believe named Jason, however, it was a black flatbed.
Was it a toyota tundra truggy, a black one? I was at a club wheeling meet a month ago and there was a black tundra truggy with a big ultimate adventure sticker on it, i don't recall his name, his rig was pretty sweet.

It wasnt a Tundra buggy....just your old school mini truck Toyota.

As for the Goodyears...I love them! I had BFG muds before these. The Goodyears stick like glue and are pretty quiet. Long term daily driver...not sure how long they would last. But in my situation where its just an offroad toy...I love them.

Spd...The TTB can be a pretty impressive setup when setup correctly.

However, I wanted wider and stronger. The SAS has worked extremely well and I am very happy with it. I wouldnt go back.

I just used 2x4 tubing to space them off the frame. Bolted them first and then welded them for extra strength. I really font have any more pics besides the ones on my cardomain page.

They gave me about 7" of lift. That is with the Duff buckets even with the bottom of the frame.
