Towing you out of that was the scariest thing I think I've ever done off-road.... Would do it again in a heartbeat!
I was impressed you fixed it in a camp ground, that was impressive.
Dun Dun Dun.... Another one bites the dust. OW!

Stupid Craigslist gets the best of me again. 
37" KM2. Tread is a little better than what came off. Tires are only three years old.
....so these rims....i didn't catch it while loading since i was trading or selling them....definitely noticed when i unloaded.
Some Super tweaker took to the wheel centers to bore them from chevy to toyota hub size. Looks like they tried to chew them out.
Needless to say, these are going to scrap.

Sigh... at least you didn't swing by a car lot and buy a jeep..
I am capable of such greatness myself. 17" rims?

No.
Really lame since i drove to the coast.
Went to swap wheels today and found an impact break in one tire....
So all in all i paid 1100 for three km2 @70%
Bought 4 wheels last night, one was bent. So at least i can use the s*** wheel and tire for a spare. Lol.
Sometimes i swear the whole fxxxing world is against me.

So even eating a tire im still way ahead of just dropping coin on a brand new set.
Im pretty stoked about the FJC rims. They give it kind of an updated look.
The backspacing is a bit extreme, so it gives me an excuse to finish project:cubic zirconium.
My new tire is supposed to be here the 17th, so its cutting it very close for MC run.

Cases back in.
Adding fluid and buttoning up that project tomorrow.
I did gey my TG warranty parts....
Cant even make a good copy of the original
Idk if you can really tell from pics but even though the TG input is now 23 spline, it has that funny neckdown tbat the OG toyota one doesnt.
Just to be clear pic 2&3 are old. Showing stock 23 vs stock 21. #3 just showing input profile.
PSS. lol and i think its a nut kicker that the input comes with that one stupid snap ring and not that other one.
