Happy birthday!

What di you guys think? I listed my 8" stack that came on my truck for sale or trade on craigslist. 2 major bites for trade. I told them I wasn't driving or shipping. One guy lived 1.5 he's away and the other 2. I told them whoever shows first I'll accept their trade. The guy with 2 12" subs didn't show up in time. A 17 year old kid shows up with a Raptor 150. It ran and he went away happy with my old stack.

Now to sell it or put it on....

The Roo Hunter was made in March of 93, so she's pretty much 1 year older than me, and I have a guitar that's either 13 or 14 years older than me

I'm quite impressed that someone would trade a functioning lift pump for a stack. I need to get into those trades :lol:

Happy Birthday Dman!

Ellis, Dan Puckett used to rodeo. He was telling me about it once at SOP, said he gained too much weigh and had to quit. I said "So when you get on and the bull goes 'oooomph' it's time to do something else?" He didn't think that was too funny. I did. :mrgreen:

Happy birthday Dman!

So I picked up a pcm for the Ford today and got it running again. Shall we take bets on how long that last?

Caleb, you ever end up ordering them recap tires you were looking at? Been looking at a couple different recap companies, prices and tread patterns look good, just don't know anybody who has run recaps on light trucks

I never have received an email saying the all terrain pattern I wanted was in stock.

However my buddy bought two of these for the rear of his 2500HD: https://www.treadwright.com/p-28-235-85 ... m-t-e.aspx

He loves them. He's had them for less than 5k miles and it appears that they wear somewhat quickly, but 4wd is seldom needed any more. If they continue to wear decent, they'll be hard to beat when a virgin mud tire like that is twice the cost.

Treadwright from my research has excellent reviews but they still run into typical recap problems. I've seen pics of decapped tires that happened while running down the road, bulges, tires that would never balance causing vibrations. Just things to think about.
