I want some diy bead locks on mine to be cool.

Been there, done that. Won't do it again.

They'll always leak. They're heavy as hell.

When I go back to beadlocks (when I have a spare stack of cash) I'll get Allied Rock-a-thons.

The new designs I've seen with built-in anti coning tabs seem to hold air a lot better but they're still super heavy.

Plus, by the time you buy the wheels and DIY locks you could have almost bought legit beadlock wheels.

Sunday I'm out, have to play guitar and go to a meeting at church. Saturday could work unless this girl doesn't work... And if I don't have to make a delivery for the Wash Bowl.

Spot I went to when I hit Wild Cat campground was a pretty sketchy trail. On the side of the mountain. Trail was 6 inches wider than my Jeep in some spots. It was pretty fun.

The trick is finding the trails.

To get to the trail I'm referring to you have to turn off of a FS road, ride 50 yards up this creek and then turn left onto the trail.

If ya didn't know it was there you'd never knew it existed.
