    Truck bed tie downs

    I saw options of clamping to the side of the bed rails but that seems like a flimsy area to trust to keep 3k pounds from moving in a bad situation. I can't put anything between the wheel wells or the pallet will not fit. A nice but random spot would be on top of the wheel wells. Also about 2...

    Truck bed tie downs

    I just picked up a new 2016 RAM 3500 regular cab 8ft bed. I carry two 4x4x4 boxes several times a month that weigh 1500 lbs and need a way to fasten them down. The corner pockets and rings are of no use. Anyone have any suggestions on something that possibly mounts to the bed? I looked at...

    JK/JKU, auto vs manual

    The manual transmission is horrible in these things (I have one). I can only compare it to my Massey Ferguson, not even a car/truck manual trans. I drove a few to make sure it wasn't jut mine and they are all the same. They work, but not nicely. The gear spread is strange, the throw is enormous...

    fishrising I am in MA, if you want to come take a look at the cooper tires or swap them on your truck for a test drive let me know. They only have 600 miles on them so they are pretty much brand new.

    I have that size Duratrac on my truck, they have an insane amount of miles on them and measure 31 inches.

    I paid right around $200 a piece mounted and balanced for the StMaxx's. I could not find a good deal on the bfgs and the extra "inch" just was not worth it to me. This is my third set of cooper tires and have had great luck with all of them.

    Real world height when I first put on the 255/80 st Maxx was 32.5 as best as my eye and a tape measure could tell. Soft top, no additional weight inside and 38psi Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

    I also went with the st maxx in 255/80. 600 miles so far, still quiet and handled rain and dirt roads very good. I have 4:10 gears and could still feel their weight fairly easily in comparison to the stock 255/75. It is an 07 so weak engine to begin with.
