"I found one thing out today, with my flexy flexy lift my rear driveshaft is making friends with my gas tank skid"

I have the SS 1.2 and my driveshaft has been getting friendly with gas tank skid. Steve sent me the zerk plug replacement plug so I didn't snap off the grease fitting. A small bolt that screws in and is flush with the drive shaft. I also mod'd my tank skid. I bought a new one and had a welder add some iron to beef it up. I pounded in the side that was rubbing with the driveshaft. I would highly recommend it. It touches when it is flexed out like this.

Well i got them out on the trail and they did excellent, and I got to take them out in the rain and the also did very good.

I only hydroplaned once, and that was due to a lot of standing water on the interstate. Its actually been raining a lot these past couple of days so i have had multiple times to test them.

Ive been running BigHorns on my taco and now on my tundra for almost 2 years and love them. great wear awsome on the rocks great in the dirt. last weekend I found their 1 weakness. Large Gravel I was driving next to some Rail road tracks and pushed a large gravel rock inbetween the tread blocks right through the tire. my guess is an AT wouldnt have had this problem. otherwise killer tire I am replacing it with another. and wont be driving near rail road tracks again.

Enjoy
