Well, my new 24bolts arrived and i picked up some runflats local. I was going to order a set up TWF PVC beadlocks, but they are now $560 SHIPPED. So I think im going to find some PVC local and cut my own. For now, I need to decide runflats, or no run flats. Smoothness is paramount, but i wanna...

How wide are your TWF PVC spacers? I went to install the tires today and put one of my 12 bolts rims on the balancer by itself... Nope https://youtube.com/shorts/1_uqnU4FJ-8?si=_cZH9L255Z7FxeeU I ordered a set of 24 bolts from feltz Trying to decide on inserts. I'm can get local rubber...

Price does fluctuate quite a bit. I've actually check simple tire probably weekly, since before this thread started. I actually did buy them from their eBay store, I had them in my cart for over a month, and then I got a push notification that the price had been lowered. That's what pushed me...

It would appear they are out of stock, but it was at this link : https://simpletire.com/brands/petlas-tires/explero-m-t-pt451#utm_source=Iterable&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=campaign_Transactional_Cart_Abandon_No%20Recs_Email%201 Alternatively, they still show in stock on their eBay store...

My petlas came in today. look good, DOT 0824, so, lots of life. $390 ea shipped from simple tire. Look like i will NOT be installing the bead locks, sorry for your troubles Mogman, thanks for the write up. I am not yet sure the plan with balancing them. I own a balancer, i remember a few of my...

totally understand, thanks

Any updates on the peltas? pictures installed? how well they ride/balance? Thanks

Kept looking, still couldn't find any 14 bolts local much less one in my width End up trying three different Detroit lockers, had to send them all back. Somebody pointed me to a guy named Carl jantz out of WA. He apparently has a lot of experience with these odd axles. Anyway, he said at Dana...

im happy with the quality on these https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09SW694YB/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1

..... Well that brings me to the rear axle.... which is a thorn in my side. Lots of return/restocking fees on failed installs. I'm not giving up..... Yet

My rig has a dana 60 front and a ultra rare super 70 in the rear... more on that later. Both are just open diffs and so i really wanted to get some traction devices in there. For the front i opted on a lunchbox, mostly since there was one local on marketplace from cheap, but ive have great luck...

One thing that always really bothered me was the worn drivers seat. I actually have been searching since i got this for new seat, but to no avail. I actually was considering having the entire interior reupholstered, but at the same time still wanted the original look. Finally hillbilly got a new...

A year or so back the previous long term owner connected with me in IG. Found out the truck had been all over the west coast and had even been featured on a optima batteries promo video. pretty cool. its come a long way.... literally

Its been over two years since ive updated the build. I did just drive and enjoy it, got busy with the other builds in the fleet, but i do have some updates. Fist thing to address was the wiring harness. Basically it had 37 years of previous owners cutting and splicing.... poorly. I envisioned a...

I think I'm going to cross my fingers and see if a new set of 24 bolts with some 98 or 100% dot 2020 bajas fixes it... Need to decide reg 24 vs paired bolts 24

I'm kinda at a crossroads with my wheels. I actually have a cucv with 12 bolt hmmwv wheels and baja tires, dot date 2011. I'd like to drive it more, but the rides is killing me. I have tried weights, beads and Hummer balancing rings. Sometimes it will be decent, other speeds shake the truck...

Completely stock H1 wheels, no spacers, but I am running ~75" wms-wms dually axles. No tach yet, but im guessing with the 4 speed 700r4 Im doing somewhere around 2200rpms at 70mph. I'd love to get a all-in-one gauge like you can for a boat/airplane. looking into that now.

37" humvee tires, 4.10 gears

Yeah I don't need speed, mine chugs along at 70 just fine. It can get my boat to the local boat ramp about a mile away easy as well. However, The other day I tried to tell it to the nicer boat ramp in the city, and it was just not pleasant. It struggles up bridges and anything over 50. The boat...

I addressed all the leaks this past weekend, as well as replace the smashed in oil pan and re-did the turbo return line. I know its sacrilege, but I really want to put a duramax in there. I love this truck, but i really need the reliability, and power of a newer truck, like a2006 k2500hd. If I...
