    NDT vs Michelins?

    Glad to see the NDT's getting good press, they are awesome, Its apples to oranges though for the most part, but have to say NDT's with them cut up to be a stricked off road tire, not meaning U can't drive em on the road but the center line adds all the reliability to how long they last, I would...

    Berg Tire

    The fast answer is no, Like eggs in the super market that go back and get re stamped 3 times, these tires are used for more than 30 plus years on trucks in service and still perform just fine, these are not 70 mile an hour over the road trucks that have requirments like price and fuel...

    $%#, Was gonna drive my truck for Independence Day...

    more times than not it is a brake cylinder, they do leak in these trucks way more than seals, way more, they can also be weeping and not noticed and cause low peddle, and possibly loss of brakes, any one who buys one of these trucks and does not pull the wheels is asking for trouble, many times...

    11.0-20 NDTs on a deuce, good idea?

    1100's are all they say, it will steer easier, look cooler to most, and yes would handle heavy loads better, but the 900's will handle any load the deuce can carry also just fine, the radials are apples to oranges big time, I have run 900's for 40thou miles on my first deuce, then went with...

    11.0-20 NDTs on a deuce, good idea?

    Belive it or not the 900's would be better in mud and snow,and could air down to 15#s , that is super awesome, although the 1100's are just fine in the deuls , i would not go that low in air, they may rub, zI would think , its one thing i just did not need to do to know the outcome, the 1100's...

    Rust removal?

    POR is touchy stuff, any oils deep in the metal will make it peel off in time, it never comes off skin until u grow new skin, u have to use there solvent only, nothing else will cut it, it has a short shelf life, and is very hard to work with if one wants to do something different later, i have...
