Alright so from the beginning almost fully stock FSJ Cherokee Chief...

Then after a few months of me in school and weekends working on TANK he was ready for a road test/trip..

27 Gallons of gas
2 Quarts of oil
4 Hours and 15 minutes later I finally arrived at the Destination. Out east in B.F.E, TexASS
with no problems
3 Days and night of non-stop rain and PLENTY OF RED CLAY I almost Sunk Mr. Tank In a stock tank that we made last summer.
2 Weeks later.....
We were on the way back.
Me being so kind I bought dinner at the Dairy Queen for us all and then on the road again.
Now NOT EVEN 5 F***ING MINUTES LATER I BLEW OUT THE SIDE WALL OF MY LEFT REAR TIRE!!!!!!!
And towing almost 2 tons in a 6300lbs tank when a tire blows is kindda obvious......
and this used tire I got for $33 got me the last 173 miles back home
I think it was a good test what do you guys think?
I will upload the pic of the tire when I get home tomorrow.
