Nice, that's a good looking tire! How do you like them? I'm debating on going to 35's in the future, so any info is appreciated. I don't technically need a mud tire, but if they aren't bad on road, I may look into them.

Lack is stuck waiting on parts, so lets stink up his thread with BS!

Ok, is it just me or does anyone else have a problem seeing UnidentifiedBomb's post right away? It continues to show in my CP that he/you posted, but I can't see it in the thread. It doesn't always happen, and I've noticed it with a couple other users, but for some reason it happens with him/you the most. Sorry, that's just been bothering me.

EDIT:It's not until someone else posts that I can see it. Cause when I just posted and refreshed, his/your post was there.

Its not just on mobile, it does it on the desktop site as well. I guess CF is censoring your posts.

Progress is being made, been about a week since I turned any wrenches on the jeep.

From the time the knife came out to open up the package until it was fully installed took a whopping 40 minutes.

Makes things a lot easier when the axle is out of the jeep, didn't run into any snags. Had to cut the spring retaining wires on the locker very short so the locker would fit into the case for install. Aside from that little detail everything went extremely smooth.

Took a little fiddling to get the c-clips in, but I figured that would be the case.

Pro tip: use assembly grease when installing. Not only does the grease help things stick where you want them, but it also provides lubrication on the first start up until diff fluid can circulate and get into everything. The grease you want is the type that will combine with the oil after it warms up.
