$47 for my three fucked up wheels.

Took a LOT to break down the back beads. Couldn’t dismount solo on the tire machine. Too heavy a tire.

Heading back to the shop now to get the InnerAirLocks put in the good tires and bring all the crap home.

Anyone need 14” rollers? One pair and 2 each oddballs. Planning to loose them instantly if no one needs them.

I think one of the matching pair was tubed :rolleyes:

The worse of the two bent wheels was cracked. I’d give 90% odds on cracking the other trying to straighten it so I figured I’d just get them out of my way. Saved the beadlock rings since they were fine.

Have both front header panel body mounts failed. Don’t think I care.

All shock bushings completely shit. Already replaced rear upper bushings with nuts.

Front mounts are set up ~1” too short for fox shocks. Fuck. Length is 16.1”, I have been full bump at 15 +/- 1/8
EDIT: I’m dumb. I have about an inch to spare on bump and will have room for almost 4” more droop if I ever get softer longer springs on there. I knew I was mathing something wrong.

Radiator mount al-al tig is cracked on one side. So much for using the sweet easy aluminum ears forever.

Also need to plate a radius arm.

Hoping to leave around 5 tomorrow evening and bolt in shocks upon arrival.

I’d like to get rear wheel wells for saturday’s mud but odds on that have gone to zero.

I’m working on it today and tmw. Work keeps bugging me. 16 hours yesterday was apparently not quite enough.

Edited above, fox shocks are 1” longer at full compression, thats all. I’ll have 1” of shaft showing at full bump instead of 2”
