Nice build so far, need to throw that lift on and use the stock RA's for now...BTW, if you go to walmart and get a 7 gallon portable air tank from automotive (like $20), they make great OBA tanks Hope to meet and ride one day, my g/f (Brandizzle) lives right there in Henderson, so me and John (railman), and Brandizzle might swing by sometime

please do im always down for some hanging out and bullshitting maybe even drinking a few....

id like to go with yall on the 17th if i can come up with some tires, dont wanna go on the 235's and have to be pulled every 10 minutes lol...if not ill make it the next time hopefully

that oba tank is pretty much the same thing ive got probably just a little bigger...and it was free so we will see how it turns out

Last time out to TB (12-13) I was wheelin with just 2WD, as I blew my front axle, so 2 hi and 2 lo is all I had, I get pulled a few times, but did pretty good considering...believe it or not you would actually do pretty good, even with stock tires...TB is mainly gravel trails, with some mud in spots here and there, but where the mud is there is several spots to go around so it gives people different options depending on their rig...I'd wheel what you got

basically cut down a 2 1/2" 5/16" wall tubing to 1 1/4 tall and welded on a 1/4" plate with a 5/8'' hole drilled in it for the factory bolt to pass through....

nice, sounds like she is gunna be a hoss....what are you going to do with your old axles?

got they from ruff stuff...right around 60 bucks for the pair which was super cheep, they shipped very quickly also.....but as for ballistic fab, ordered some stuff the week before christmas and still havent seen even any shipping info so if you order from them be ready for a wait
