Getting them all assembled. It'll definitely be two trips home. I'm not mounting them on Jeep till after C gussets are done this week. Starting them out at 30 psi (?).

Fun fact: not all balancing systems are created equal and DT will have different ones. I just asked the guy doing mine which one was best and he definitely knew which machine we should use. Not sure I would've ended up on that one if I hadn't asked though so may be worth bringing up the next time you're at DT.

SWEET! I would go lower in PSI on your 37"s, maybe around 26-28, but do the chalk test to be sure. Goddam, those tires are sexy. I CANNOT wait to get them in 40" at some point!

Time for LoD Destroyer bumper and tire carrier install! Picked up a few necessary items I didn't have but will need: bearing grease, 1.5" socket, 1/2" drill bit.

Unpacked the new bumper yesterday. Looks great. Packaging is intense.

Anybody want one? I'd like to get a little $ for it. Already has a nice custom 3rd light relocation job on it (one of the mods I did earlier in this thread).
