I will warn you, the black vinyl was miscolored, sort of a blue tinge to it. They were kind enough to send a replacement but I still wasn’t happy, it wasn’t a true black. So I masked off the LR logo and used gloss black vinyl spray paint and gave a nice fresh true black finish.
Thanks! In an oddball way, you just chose my next set of tires. I have been set on getting another set of Kenda Klevers (I run them on the Jeep currently and LOVE them) and was just planning on 265/65r18. Well, that size you have comes in the Klevers and is CHEAPER despite being marginally larger. WOOHOO!

Now I just need to find the time to refinish my Comets so I get them back on.

MFing squirrels.. Found my ABS problem, fixed the harness, then went visiting for the holidays and came back to find a nest and another wire chewed.

For the last year or so I’ve been giving the rodents favourite places a coating of bear spray. So far it seems to be keeping them out.

Hmm wonder what the neighbors would think of me wandering around the yard pepper spraying the squirrels directly

@Sandman614 I have a complete spare modulator - I can pull the the connector if you have no luck at wreckers. On the west coast in Canada so it will probably take about 5-10 days to get to you.
