Its locked front and rear and will go mostly wherever I point it... It gets plenty of practice for the hunting trails on Jeep runs in the off season.. I have a question for you extreme off roaders. How often do you knock a tire off the bead when you get sideways like in the first pic? And if you do in the middle of something like that how do you get it out of there? I have never had one come off the bead. If it did, I'd just drive it out and put the spare on. The guys that run less than 5 psi usually run beadlock wheels.

When I installed a 60 & 44 in my CJ8, I had em narrowed. Had to to be able to be street-legal. Nice CJ7 in any event!! Ken

Something clever here.

I love the older straight - axle subs. I would love to buy one and do a duramax/allison conversion on one someday. What engine are you running in yours? I assume big block with that TH400.
