Sure thing! Normally Get out wheeling 1-2 a month... probably down and out for 4-5 months to let her break in properly... but I am sure we will meet up eventually on one run or another.

Looking good! want to see this thing with 35's!

35's are the way to go! I wish I had 4.88's that's a good choice. Hopefully i'll get out there this coming weekend.

got my flares cut up a bit and then i got cold. to make them work with the 35's i have to cut the bottom part of them off, so they will be more like an over hang flare. i don't know if thats how others have done it but that's what i came up with.

Not sure if you bump stopped yet but hockey pucks work well, just stack them inside the coil. Mine are held together with a bolt.
