And yeah they have some wicked tie downs.. guess they don't want those chunks of metal floppin around back there while they drive across the country

imagine seeing those snapped on roll by inspection of a train with that equipment.

Those are M88 HERCULES Recovery Vehicles. Those *****es are made to pull out stuck M1A1/A2 Tanks and all sorts of ****. Turbo Diesel and big loud ****ers. They might be headed my way, I've shot at a few of these things with a Bushmaster 25MM.

Ha, yeah. 33"s on 3" is not the best idea.

I'll replace the fenders soon as I put my 5.5"s up front. Tell then, I'll keep my "custom" fenders.

3" leaves almost no up travel. Either way, I'm not staying with 33s. Not to mention the rear of my xj is sitting around 6.5" of lift, it looks a bit silly with 3" up front.
