This thread seems exclusive! Screw you guys!!!

Ok, my long distance winter plans are to get rings for my bead-lock rims made. Find some tires to put on said rims.... make plans for rear bumper/side armor.... Probably some other things...

Haven't got that far yet


all said and done I will get locked axeles, and have either my set axels (open front/aussie rear) or open/open.

Whatever works out best for all involved.

I still have the system out of my project- I won't be using that, only might need the muffler but can let that go too if you need it. You'll just need to get the gaskets for the bolt up flanges.

I've had good results with the "Econopower" batt's @ Interstate- they usually are $35 to $50 and sometimes they have been as good as new- I have also picked up some Optima's there- you just have to ask.. (Reverse terminals are sometimes hard to get)
