I guess it's the "Super Stocker" build

I understand a box arrived at home with EVO tape on it. [emoji16]

I'm also working on an unexpected upgrade that I may not be able to pass up. It's a smoking deal IMO if it works out. I'll know more on Saturday. [emoji106]

I did in fact get home last night to find this...

More packing materials! [emoji1]

And the real contents...

As I said in an earlier post, I realize the biggest function of these will be to clean up the appearance of the front wheel wells.

Without

With mini-liner

I will be rattle canning these with bed liner. The plan is to also cut off the stud that is pointing straight down. All those threads are excessive for these liners and could potentially contact my tire. I hope to get that done after checking out my potential upgrade deal in Tucson tomorrow.

So, a guy in Tucson wanted 33's due to some health issues. He traded me my 33's and stock wheels for his Cooper STT's in 35x12.50x17 straight across. They do have some outer corner chunks, but all 5 have replacement warranties, through Discount Tire, transferred to me!

The wheels have 4.5" back space and are the MB's with the round holes. Loving this!!!

So I tried the rubber cork trick for my spare tire isolaters. I guess since the wheels have the 4.5" bs it won't reach.

I've reluctantly ordered the daystar extensions. I'm hoping I get an improved set over the "cheap foam" version. Those will be here Tuesday.

Cancel your order and get 1.5" pvc pipe and end caps from Home Depot. I'll take pics of mine tomorrow when it stops raining.

Here is a picture of the end caps from the internet since when I do grab photos you won't be able to see them all that well.

I'm pretty sure that two caps and a five foot section of pipe set me back $6.

I eye balled the length that I cut the pipe at so I don't have an exact mesurement.

Perfect! That's helpful, thanks! I assume you install the non-capped end of the PVC into the factory isolator??? If so, is it a tight fit or is an adhesive needed?

It's a tight fit. My stock isolators were already trimmed because I was using tennis balls before the pipe. You might have to trim your to get it to fit.

Dude that's awesome! Although I do love my STT Pros's, the original STT was a better looking tread and I kind of miss mine.
