Do any of you guys know the size of the valve stems for the ATX slabs? I called Northridge 2 weeks ago to let them know that I was missing one from my order but they still have not it shipped to me. I guess I'm going to have to go out and buy one. Spending over $10,000 with them over the past few years is not enough for a $2 valve stem I guess. :thinking:

That does not sound like them at all. Email the rep on the forum and email then directly? I've heard there on it like flies on crap.

I'm not a100% sure on the slab size hole, but this chart is pretty good, depends on how long you want the stem. I bought a bag of 25 stems and a tool for 10 bucks on eBay.

Went to America's Tire (where I bought all my RV tires) and they installed a tire valve stem for free!!! That's the reason I keep spending my money with them! :yup: :thumb:

That allowed me to mount my spare

Also applied the banner to rep the WAL pose! (Gust of wind came along and put a wrinkle in the L while I was applying it :( )

Yup, bought my RV tires and had them install em. Got my Nittos from discount tire since I installed them myself. I was able to get it perfectly straight but RIGHT when I went to press the L down a massive gust of wind pressed it down for me :(

I plan on beating up the stock bumper until I find a good deal on a used HD stubby rear. I like the D-rings but like the corner protection a bumper gives you.

Never planned to worry or address the evap canister, but i found a good dude selling a GenRight evap skid for dirt cheap so couldn't pass it up!

Much more robust/HD than the stock tin can!

Sounds good. I'm not sure who makes a good bumper. I remember evo had a prototype, but never happened.
