I had a great Discount Tire in Kerrville, TX, but the one in Spokane sucks. I can give them everything to the T and they still get it wrong. Once they even stole 6 of my stubby valve stems and threw them away. I went back and they said, oh, we thought those were old. I was like, what the hell are you doing digging in my cupholder? It's not like they were just laying around.Leave it to discount tire to always fuck up the inboard and outboard side of mounting my tires. My fault for not checking before I got home. Going to have to start giving them a list of to do’s.
Check that the inboard side is actually inboard

I absolutely recommend the Noico. I stripped the vehicle and got it just about everywhere I could. I wish getting the dash out was a simple affair or I would've covered the entire firewall. I think that would've made it even better. With the seats out, I got it as high up as I could manage. It made a world of difference for sound even before getting around to putting the carpet back in. The vehicle felt less rickety and more solid. The sound when closing the tailgate also changed to a more expensive German car sound. I had saved about half a box that I was planning to use on the doors and on the backs of some interior pieces to try to eliminate some panel resonances. But the car was wrecked before I could finish. If you have the patience, I would take the dash out and get it on the higher parts of the firewall that are unreachable with it in. Or you could just keep some leftover material for when you have to remove the dash out of necessity and do it then. If you are the type who sprays out the tub, then this wouldn't be for you although you can use soup cans and leather punches to cut out perfect circle holes around all bolts and drainage plugs, which is what I did. The shipping weight is 27 lbs per box. One box should make a difference if you just address all key areas but to do it really well with full coverage, two boxes will be best.

Pretty damn cool to have your wheeling buddy be your old man!Man, those Dad's are always slowin' stuff down...
It really is. We’ve always made sure we have a shared hobby together. Surfing and motocross were some others we did a lot growing upPretty damn cool to have your wheeling buddy be your old man!
I have BarTacs and live on the coast where we have more humidity than AZ. I haven't noticed any swampiness, the BarTacs aren't like neoprene seat covers. Not sure what the material is, but it's like a heavy duty cordura.Get any time to determine the swampiness?
