You'll be amazed of the difference in ride. The steel wheels don't absorb bumps and whatnot in the road like alloys do. I went from alloys to steel and back to alloys again a couple of times... ride is definitely rougher with the steel. Not that you're trying to get it to ride like a cadi, but still... it's a nice bonus.

I never can find that tire carrier. Keep hoping to get lucky one day at the JY, but hasn't happened yet.

I'm wanting to do this with mine, but with bedliner on the tread surfaces. My wife's care likes to spin the tires going up the ramp if there's the slightest bit of moisture or sand on the tires.

That's a helluva rake you got goin' on there.

 

Have had my mt2s for over a year now. Been nothing but hard on them. They handle rocks very well, drive great on the street, are quiet and seem to be an all around great tire. I smashed them through the Rubicon and came out with almost 0 rock rash. I do have one complaint though. They don't clean out mud very well.

 

Bought it some presents...

 

Yo, bruv, welcome 2 our mutual nightmare. It's all good. And ur Grand Dad was the "man".

J.E.E.P. = just empty every pocket

TT&TSTEVEIE

 

Yeah I contemplated that. I went with farm equipment spray paint instead. hopefully I dont have that issue

 

I would consider trying all-weather grip tape

 

Yea I had added shackle relocation brackets in the rear so I had to put bigger Springs up front to level up the front

 

Ill give it a whirl once I get my XJ back and modify from there

 

The finished product!

 

Power steering pump locked up, threw a belt on the highways, slightly overheated getting to a safe spot, and completely broke the power steering pulley in half. Yay! More maintenance.

 

That looks good.....

 

Ahhh, ok. I thought maybe they were new leaf packs that hadn't settled yet.

D'OH! No bueno.

 

Done that, ain't if fun

 

Drove it full of stuff to college, move in day!

 

First year?
