It was John Cooper’s fault.
I’m not sure how l....but we need to blame him
Was this guy around when it happened?

Was this guy around when it happened?
I wonder if I should be worried about my TEN factory chromo shafts for my Dana 44 once I step up my tire size and HP....
I've already twisted my factory shafts in the rear from bumping up stuff on 31s,I'll see how the chromo. Shafts do once I get around to installing them....
Edit- I guess they aren't that bad then after what Blaine said

What makes these your favorite ?
I've been looking at these for a bit and the price seems good to me too!
I'd like to buy a set of tires&wheels that I'd only use when going to a trail and have a set only for the street and that being my current setup!
That or a set if interco tires I.e super swamper sx2's or some Trxus radials,iroks Etc. I'm over using my daily setup of tires on the rocks since I chunk them up on rocks and get very bad vibrations once I'm back to a dailying
....duh

They seem like they'd be great in mud, but half the price of Swampers. The downside from the reviews I read was they are extremely difficult to balance. Not a real issue since you would want to limit their street use.

You know I will take the blame, heck I was trying to spot for you and take pictures.
That's never a good combination!!!!!!! Just ask @Hog he will tell you, I can barely walk and chew gum at the same time.....
I’m not sure... but I think his evil spirit still lurks.....
I would be worried about punctured sidewalls on a chinese tire compared to a swamper. But keep that in mind and I'm sure you'd get plenty of miles throwing 10 lb globs of mud at everyone around you!
I didn't bother balancing my wheeling swampers. Once they warm up it's quite managable
That guy is a walking Voodoo artist!!!!!!
@tr21triton is a decent guy, but dang he can put a hex on you quicker than Marie Laveau, I swear on a stack of pringels!!!!!!

next time take video so we can see the carnage happen!
Then if you want photos you can just take screenshots.
Trying to stay ahead of @AndyG going up that hill to spot and take pictures, I think I got about 8 pictures of either the ground or my shoes.
I reckon I am just getting old and out of shape.
When we do this we need a dedicated video/photographer to take pictures and such for us.
I was actually thinking if I should’ve done it the way Blaine described but then I realized I’d likely got in more trouble because of the sharp drop behind me - This was the kind of climb that you need to be hitting on a fairly dry day
Plus- if you look at the pictures it’s a drop off behind you where you make the turn-
I mean it is like do or die- not much room for error
Then you’ve got to get up on the rock and don’t walk the front end off to the right and flop.

No, I’d start worrying about them now -
Welp.....dayum
They aren't installed yet since I'm lazy and I don't have the bearings for em so I'll give them a shot....I did buy them new from a guy for 50$ so It's definitely worth the shot!
Edit I spent more money refreshing some stock shafts I bought from marketplace when i did my rear truetrac than these TEN factory ones
but I bought the chrmo shafts months after the fact, oh well....better late than never I guess

They're made in Indonesia, just like my old water monitor lizard. They both have tough sidewalls and plenty of bite.

I figured you were older
15 now.
I don't think he asked how many wives...
Awesome we'll that's good to know!
Home to Bridgeport OHV is a 156 mile Round trip so.....I'll deeply take that into consideration about the balancing
Maybe if I find some reasonably priced intercos I'll get them since I haven't heard too many negatives about them apart from price!
