Well, after getting my new 35x10.5x15 ETs on, I decided to go test them and push the limits of my truck before I justify any Maxi-Drive components (that are going to be my X-Mas gift to me).
Highlights are great articulation allround with the 2" OME lift, 2" body lift, and Rangie Spares flares...however, I need to extend my rear bump-stops some 2-3" more.
The tires are a MASSIVE improvement over the 32" TSLs I was running.
Here are Some pics: |

Got to a sweet looking pond. This is September, so if there is still water in this, that means the ground is STICKY! Needless to say, we got stuck (no front ARB) |

After trying to drive out and breaking a front short-side axle, then using the pull-pal which got bent, we tried to hammer a steel pole we found lying loose into the ground as an anchor: |

The "home-made" anchor before and after.
FYI: I had to call a friend of mine that is working in construction to get a 6 wheel drive truck to recover me. When that was not able to find traction, we had to use my M8274-50 with a snatch block to get me out. Great Winch. |
