destroying a set of H1's.....no, actually I am cutting the 8-lug centers out of them. The reason: Toyota never made an 8-lug axle(yet) I am gonna (have a machine shop) put 6 lug centers in the wheels so I can use them on my rig. I am gonna run 38x12.50x16.5 TSL SX's. I picked up my buddys tire @ 4wpw yesterday and I set it up next to my truck(38.5x11.00x15 Bogger)--I like the height..not to fond of the narrowness

A buddy at work runs H1s on his full size rig, seems very happy with them. I got 37/12.50/15 MT/Rs on 15x8 steelies and they are plenty wide for my Toy...aired down to 8 psi at Tellico last weekend and no issues.
Nice plasma cutting!

You'll enjoy Tellico, I did for sure. Make sure to take lots of pics and plan on joining us next year for SE4RJ4. 
Most of those posts are from my "newbie" years and were about nothing...much like this post right here...but I post a lot less these days...too many other boards to read...fab work to do...my boys to chase down...but yes, that is a lot, but I'll never catch Corey!
Just checked...only 6 people have MORE posts than me.

I've had this done for a while now...just been slack with the camera. I have the rear axle just about finished and the RH tap came in...time to get my ass over there and thread some tube for my links.
On with the pics
My upper link(you'll see the finished product soon enough
)
Rear axle build-up...here is the start
Here are some pics of the tube bed design( BEND-TECH KICKS ASS!)
Still workin' on it
With rear stinger that needs to be shortened
Oh and I bought a bender w/ hydraulics Pro-tools 105HD air/over

i was gonna say the "wheres the pics thing" but since i have been following this thread if you announce something and dont have pics its b/c u didnt have a camera. Just didnt want to deal with it.

Sorry, I have been subscribed, but haven't been looking at times. Most of the time you post pictures, thats why I put it up. Not trying to be rude, just curious is all.

Oh...I did't take it serious....I bored the hole through the tube tonight and got it ready to put my threaded end(It is getting tapped tomorrow) into the link. When I get the threaded end back I promise I will post up pics

I figured out that when you do something on such a large scale you need more $$$ than ambition lol
my problem is the opposite.....I have the ambition but not the $$$
