You bringing the cream puff? If so, will you trailer it?

Really like your current avatar, @beno. The BJ70 looks like a show truck

Hey Sam @elkaholic,

@perrobravo just flipped his spare tire carrier and it cleared the 33's (no welding required). See post #48 of the following link:

https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/righty-moves-to-san-diego.840721/page-3

I know the spare tire flip works sometimes and sometimes it doesn't. But, it is worth a try, 4 bolts out and 4 bolts in!

Hope this works for you!

Tried it and no bueno. Requires removal of wiper arm and spacers as the tire is hard against the door. Plus wheel studs are buggered as well.

Thanks for the tip though.

Thanks! The cat is outta the bag now.

See you there.

If meant to me, yes and probably. It is at least 8 hour drive and the truck is much more comfortable and cruise control be nice. But, the new acquisition drives so nice I might change my mind.

Yes, I meant you

I think the Idle knob can be used to maintain speed....

Very very very NICE, Sam!

Clean and paint the winch surround ....
The previous owner must have been very slack to have not done that.

Sam has only had the Cruiser for a few days and someone has already stolen his spare tire ....... Rough neighborhood.

Well, the 11 year old BFG AT that was on the spare (that had never touched the ground) is under the truck in the garage.

The new 33x10.5R15 KM2 won't fit on the carrier, but that will be corrected by the end of the month.

I really upset somebody. The distributor that covers much of the SE had 4 of these tires left in their warehouse, when I got this one spare. BFG has discontinued the KM2 in that size but still makes the AT ... for now ....

I have heard that he is a real slacker at times

If I had gotten the black seat covers no one would have been the wiser.
