You already follow trucks on 40's with open diffs, IFS and 33's, what else do you need? Obviously not gearing, lockers or protection.

Maybe sell this magical truck to the guy with the golden goose and get a different hobby?

Dude, come on.

What?

Open your eyes and read. Locked rear. Just cause I am following guys on 40's doesnt mean I can go where 40's take you. Its a remark on following friends that have overkill size on their trucks. Shove a golden goose up your ass.

The first post included it, I made a point of belittling it.

I followed a Spidertrax buggy yesterday...


It was on a trailer driving through Fort Collins.

Vulgarity and a personal attack, just wanted to make sure it was saved for posterity.

Please feel free to belittle my posts all you want in your own threads not mine. I have no plans on changing my post unless a moderator asks me to so save it all you want. Your sarcastic remarks are just as much of an dick personal attack as me making a direct comment.

I'm probably gonna wind up getting some nice TSL's with the money. The SAS will come reguardless of what I do with this money. Besides I dont think I'm gonna up my tire size til the christmas after the swap just to save for the tires and regearing so I dont loose 10mpg instead of 2...

1. No such thing as "nice" TSL's. There are tires that are almost as good off-road and WAY better on-road.

2. If you're concerned about MPG, a SAS is the last thing you need.

my advice....stick that money somewhere where you'll forget about it for a few months and do some YT surfing!
