New tires are on.
34's compared to the 36's

Big difference :p what tires are those exactly and it looks like 8" rims w/ 2" spacers.
How do you like the spacers?:hmm:

36/12.50 TSL radials. I have 2" spacers on the front only, needed
a bit more room to clear the calipers. No reviews on them pro or negative.
 
I used to run TSL bias ply and I always liked them. I think the radials have better road manners. They look real mean on the Cruiser. :cheers:

I was looking for something taller and better on the road. 4 or the 5 balanced up nice, one is a bit out of
round.
 
Whats that, I've been trying to find a place to spin balance mine (35's or larger) w/ no luck. I did go w/ the Dyna beads, but I always liked the spin balance since I drive to the trails.
:D


Mounted and balanced for about $60.

One of the guys there is coming over next week with cash
to take the 34's away.
 
Looks good Lane.
I'm gearing up to do a 60 ps box conversion and a new front bumper this weekend
 
Started some frame repair today. Frame's on stands, axle is out, the harness and brake line are out of the way, head pipe is off the header, spring perches are off and the rock sliders are unwelded off the frame. Tommorow the brackets for the body mounts come off. Going to make some templates out of paper board before I cut out the rust so I can transfer from one side to the other. Hopefully start putting in some new steel tommorow :bounce::bounce2:

Here's some crappy cell phone pics,

Bling Bling....

I ordered new rims and Spidertrax 1.5" spacers for the front axle.(hopefully it will help w/ smashing the front fenders, trees and all.....:frown:)
I also put a little West Caost buffing on the fenders and hood.:D


Hey Jr., is that Kermit?:deadhorse: I like buffing more than grinding out rust. I rememeber those days. I see if I can find a pic?

Looks way too good Rick, Need some mud on her!!!
 
Dude!!!

That paint looks a quarter inch thick! Not Kermit. I hear you about the rust suck, but this one's helping to pay some bills.

Rig is looking awesome Lane! That's a great price for mounting and balancing. I tried every tire shop near me, including a couple of truck tire shops and no one would touch them. Ended up going with the beads. Where did you get them balanced?

Hey..

Hey Jr, I have also tried many tire shops and truck places to get tires balanced, but no luck. Thanks Lane for the info. I even tried Rochester Tire because they advertise on ExploringNH. I thouhgt that was one of your rigs, I didn't know it was a customers. Jobs like that pay well because of all the man hours involved.:eek:
 
I installed a complete stereo system in Mike's truck today. The head unit was a Christmas present and has Bluetooth and a high Speed USB. The 4 speakers were a birthday present and are 3-ways. Sounds pretty good.
