    Any Pictorial directions on taking apart front console for Stereo and Diff lck instal

    Hey guys, I went through the FAQ and did a search on the 80 forums but didnt find anything.

    Where does everybody purchase their tires from?

    So Im in the market for some 315/75/16s, and man im finding it difficult to pick one. The cooper discovery and toyo open countrys have great reviews on this forum but I cant find a good place to purchase them, or even the trxus intercos.

    Noob questions about Wheels, backspacing, and tires

    Hey guys, I did a quick couple of searches but didnt find the answers because I think my questions are just general knowledge for 99% of you guys. First off; backspacing is how much the tires are going to stick in/out of the wheel well? IE it will change your stance either wide or narrow...
