If anyone else is intrested I'll sell them to anyone on here for $700 plus shipping.

Sorry for the thread jack.

33x12 is too big for my setup unless those have a ton of offset, and shipping would rapify me. i have 32's on stock wheels and they rub at lock.

Host is considered NWS by many employers.

a lot of jeepers run the treadwrights and even down at 10psi they hold up, besides, I carry a spare.

What the fuck!?! Philip you already have snow where you live?

Philip 11-12-2007 12:53 AM

we had one storm dump about 8" and melt right away, but those tires need about 1500 miles before the green diamonds are exposed.

My Titan has a Dana rear axle that's notorious for failure. No idea what model, but isn't Dana supposed to be a decent deal?

the D44 is the strongest bolt in axle for hte XJ. To go stronger you'd have to go ford 8.8 and do some welding.
