Got to use my new duratracs in the snow tonight...not much, only about 3 inches on the ground, but they gripped and pulled really well. I didn't realize how slick the roads were until seeing otherbvehicles spin out. Can't wait to play in some deeper stuff!

tires should be in and installed monday. picked up a set of 16" alloys local and dropped them off at the tire shop yesterday. ordered a OME kit from lucky 8 on thursday but have yet to see it on my online statement so i may need to double check that.

AB sent me a new serp. belt so that will be the task of the weekend as my stock belt is squealing on these colder mornings.

installed PIAA whites in the highs/lows and am gonna put yellows in the fogs. heated seat kit went in last week.

trying to decide on sliders and bumper options. my brother is on the local army base and is gonna try and score me a winch off a humvee coming back from iraq.

come on snow!!!

That looks like an awesome weekend! Unfortunately though, I am fully booked that weekend...
Make sure you rep the rover world well!
I'll keep you posed on the spring Uwharrie rover event when the date is announced. Idk if youve ever been, but its a great time with lots of rovers.
