Mike is dead on. I've known a few folks who saw one and then jumped. Then it was "it is slow".....wrong gears for what they expected. Drive a few types then decide what is best for you. Good Luck,

I have an old 48" that I packed out of an abandoned mine years ago. For my needs and the lack of capacity of my truck I would still buy a 48". I pick my present truck up with each wheel (either end) or the rear hitch. As stated earlier, lifting from the chassis can tax a 48" if the suspension...
I've ran two sets of them on my truck and think they are a good comprimise between highway and off-road. I've made a few 3,000 mile trip while towing a trailer. I did sipe mine for better traction in the snow/ice.

I like it. If folks want to pay the money, let them. Sure, I think others could be something "like" this and possibly for less, but, for a built rig I'm impressed. I look forward to roadtest and such.

I like the square Pivot Kings. I'm simple when building stuff and square is easier. I can't really see what cap system they use. The Summit Machine caps look cool and durable for keeping crap out.
