They definitely look massive, especially because I'm running 30x9.5's at the moment. Lol. The MTR's definitely run true to size where a lot of manufacturers actually measure under their rated size. BFG KM2's are notorious for that.

These are just a piece to the puzzle for my current build. Have a lot of plans in the works.

Had a weird thing happen this morning.

I have a leaky injector or a fuel pump going bad or something, so I do a poor man's prime. This morning I do that and everything is cool, radio (Pioneer DEH6500BT) comes on, Scangauge comes on, etc. Then when I go to start up, the engine comes on just fine but the Scangauge rapidly cycles through all its backlight colors in like a tenth of a second and my radio goes in to "store demo" mode and all the memory gets cleared out.

It was a little concerning.

Adjusted my drag link so my steering wheel is straight(ish). Due to my OCD this makes me absolutely crazy.

Yay for electrical issues. Sounds like a voltage drop, your battery in good shape? Terminals tight? With the colder weather it definitely puts more strain on your electrical system.

Pff I gave up on this a long time ago. As long as the wheel is in the vicinity of cancelling the turn signals when making turns, I'm happy

My wife's tire has a slow leak in it. I don't see anything in the tread, so it has to be something around the bead or rim. I keep meaning to take it off and inspect it but time keeps getting in the way... bad hubby.
