Old Girl got some new tires today 265/75/16 E
Only problem is the garage did not put my rear hub cap on tight and it is now along the side of the road somewhere....
I'll pick up another at the junk yard soon... Not a hugh deal, I will be telling my buddy that he needs to put them on better next time.
I also took out my bench seat and put in a 40/20/40 seat yesterday..

Is that broken off? Or is the core just coming out of the stem?

it is broken off, but the core is still good and holds the air in. Just no way to fill with air.


I ended up taking the core out, and using a blower attachment to fill it, and replaced the core. good to go. Eventually I will get new valve stems all around and sell the good sensors

Dude, cut that tail off of that tie wrap. You haven't been out there long enough to be a hillbilly yet!

Walked out to my 17 year old 4x4 truck today, and couldn't find a speck of leak underneath it!!!

Made my friggin day. I must've done a good job with all the work I've put into it in the past few months.
