40 getting bigger and badder
After a bunch of years of building this 40, the direction changed after a trip to Rubithon this past year.
Wheeling with a hardcore group and seeing the whomping they put on their rigs, I knew it was time to do it to my own. 14 bolt, 5:13's, welded with discs and a Dana 60, 5:13's and either a Detroit Electric or ARB and I will be moblie finally. The pic is crappy, but the 40 is getting so close to rolling out on its own, I can taste it.

H1 Civilian Beadlocks with brand new 37x 125 x16.5 Military MT's.
Killer purchase for 5 @ $750 total package... Believe me, I have been looking and looking for the right wheel/tire combo that I could afford for this rig. |

Jack, they are the same rims that I had on my rig at the Rubithon although mine were recentered for a diferent BS.
The bolts can be reversed very easily so damage is not a problem. The hub damage is more of an issue (but only if you are not running drive slugs) __________________ I am kinda gay.......

While I have never met Nolen face to face, i know him all too well.
I may show up at a LSLC event or someother shindig, walk into the crowd or up to him slowly and introduce myself................. Actually once the FJ60 is complete, i plan on driving it to events as often as I possibly can/ 2005 will be the year, oh yes 2005..... |

Thanks, John. That is what I guessed from the evolution of this thread
Your rig is looking good and I hope to wheel with you again soon.
