Sorry, no action pics, I thought the wife would get a few but she "forgot". Oh well, here's a few after shots. All in all, I wasn't too disappointed for a heavy ol burb w/o lockers. I had her up the bumpers, front and rear. She didn't make it all the way through the pit, got about half way, but she did back out on her own. I think with lockers she'll make it through the pit completely.
 



There are only two tools in life that one needs. Duct tape and WD40. If it moves and shouldn't, use the duct tape. If it doesn't move and should, use the WD40.

      Yeah, the flares sure do help keep a lot of the mud off the side of the truck too. Everyone there was amazed at how clean she was when we finally got out of the pit. Myself included. But the tires worked great. I just wish they drove as good on the street as they sling mud, I'd be buying a couple more sets and stockpiling them. As it is, I think I'm gonna buy a set of street tires, and keep these for off-roadin'.
       
      BTW, Chris, you ever make it back over to the shop and pick up those tires?
