Thanks! Out of curiousity, if the beadlocks are not in the packaging, can you mount the rims/tires without them? I would rather have them of course, but if it means waiting weeks and weeks to get them... Cheers!

Balance Rims from daniel at usa6x6 arrived today! The guys at the air force post office were less than amused by how heavy it all was ;-) I still have to unrwrap everything to make sure its all there as I don't see the beadlocks right off. Unfortunatly, I have to go to Stuttgart tomorrow night...

WHen I did the rear axle, I left it connected to the drive shaft and bolted the springs in place so I would not have to modify the driveline. I mis-measured a little bit. I thought the bed would line right up leaving about the 10" you are looking at. In reality, the bed is a bit long for that. I...

I'm open to any ideas. I have no clue how to balance them (and nor will the blokes doing the tires!). On another note, the truck overheated a bit when it threw the fan belts. Seem to run fine when I replaced the belts and drove it to work. Drove to the hockey rink tonight and on the way home it...

I ordered them in mid august and he mailed them to me around the second week of Sep by bulk mail. That means with any luck they should be here any day now. I've got a local shop who will mount the rims and tires for cash. Poor suckers have no idea what they are in for! I'm planning on driving...

Oh, yeah, and as soon as I find a ratty old stuffed rabbit plushy toy, its getting zip tied to the grill between the teeth! (which the wife hates, threatens to paint eyelashes around the headlights!!!) c-

Here are the pics. The ride is great (for a duece!). The springs much softer than the twin axle truck. I'm keeping one of the xml's om the back just to keep a little weight in it at the moment. Right now its still on the 900x16's until the rims arrive for hte xml's. I've been driving it to work...

Maybe because I'm a service guy overseas, but I've always been treated really well by Daniel at usa6x6. My rims are in the mail (to my mil post box) and are probably going on a vacation to some garden spot in the universe before they get here, but at least they are on the way. Hey, I just saw...

Bobjob is done. I drove it 3.5 hours home on Monday. Pulls any hill in 5th and goes like a scalded monkey. Still on9x16 ndt's at the moment so tops out at 55mph. Bead lock rims from usa6x6 should be here any day now so I can mount the xml's. Air Force security on the base almost split a seam...

Well, I'm back now. Did not get the bob job done by july 4th, but I'll be driving it home next weekend. I'll post pics after that. I'm still waiting on a set of rims to arrive to mount the XML's on but I have to admit that it looks really cute on the 900x20's. My misses says it looks like her...
