Well I grinded down the ridge inside the hub centre on the rims and they fit now !! Buuut I threw them on and because of my completely flat stock leaf pack in the back, they bottom out on the smallest bumps and ruts, so now I gotta wait till I get the lift kit to put them on lol oooowell ! It was worth a try haha

Haha I loved reading your thread, Harley. It's a shame you didn't get more feedback... but I think you've done a WICKED job, especially for this being your first vehicle and you gaining most of your knowledge from the site.

If only I wasn't leaving, I'd DEFINITELY get you to weld me up a bumper. I noticed tonight when we were turning around on that tight trail that it saved your grill from quite a few short trees.

By the way.... I was thinking it to myself on the drive home.. you remind me a lot of Brian. Totally excited by every little thing, super friendly, and always smiling.

Really glad to have met you!




**bring on awkward moment tomorrow or the day after when you're like "ah, thanks for the comments..." hahaha.
