By power lines, do you mean the area down Lakeshore towards Bessemer? That's where I usually go. Getting a little bored with it though, hoping to find somewhere new.

 

Yeah, that's the spot. I heard there were some other areas towards Helena but who knows. I'm not looking to get a shotgun pointed at me lol

 

No joke, we were wondering about that after seeing all the spent ammo at the power lines. I'll keep searching and let you know if I find somewhere different. We were out by the power lines Saturday afternoon, and no one was out there. Strange being such a nice day.

 

MC Im in MS and was wondering how you like the TW Guards in that size, I have a 3" TF lift HD front and rear and am thinking about changing to the 285's. How do yours do?

 

I think they're great. It's the first AT/MT tire I've ever had. It has a little hum to it, (mostly between 30-45mph) but nothing annoying. I actually kind of like the sound. At highway speeds, they are smooth without zero vibration. Off road I haven't been stuck yet, and I'm usually the one testing the iffy spots first. I just hope they keep making this size, so I can get more later. I have the load range D (yokohama geolander) and I run them at about 38-40 psi.

 

While I was changing my oil and greasing my driveshafts yesterday, I reached up and discovered that I do, in fact, have a CDL! I wasn't sure, since mine is a 2001.

Happy days!

 

Cleaned & repaired three electrical connectors in the passenger footwell that were severely corroded.

Replaced the front wiper motor/linkage assembly.

slid the rear passenger window channel back up (approx 2"). Hopefully this was the source of the wind noise.

 

Replaced both ripped front seats in the 99 with some like new used ones, and installed a ground loop isolator to my aftermarket radio. It's so peaceful now to drive down the road with the radio on and it not drowning out the music with its buzzing noise. I even added a new ground to it first with no luck so if anyone else has a buzzing radio this fixed me up.


Now I'm just waiting to get some new cats welded up on my 04.

 

Did the breaks, mounted front Asfir skid plate, and front Asfir diff guard can't wait till Rally Wed
