    Best 'Aggressive AT' Tires?

    I second what "telemike" said. I have a set of Kelly safari TSR's on my 04 Z71 and could not be more pleased. Good price, good tread wear, good on road and off, and the noise is nothing compared to a previous set of maxis mudders. They are what I would consider an aggressive all terrain tire...

    2014 Ram Powerwagon

    Well, I didn't think about that aspect. The Insurance company would love to hear I was overloaded and not pay out a dime if a wreck occurred. Thanks for the heads up. Guess I'll just have to get a PW and a diesel! Dream......

    2014 Ram Powerwagon

    Ok, here is a question for those "In the Know" A 2014 power wagon will be in the works for me in the upcoming months. I have drooled over them long enough and the time for a new truck has come. Here is my issue though: The non power wagon 6.4 hemi crew cab 4x4 2500 truck with the 4.10 rear can...

    Land Rover Transparent Bonnet Technology

    That is pretty neat. It appears the image is on the hood yet is actually projected on the windshield. Wonder if it would work with the hood/windshield covered in mud or if the cameras had mud/dirt on them. Would be neat to capture the picture flying over a sand dune at 50mph and see the ground...

    2005 z71 build

    My 04 Z71 has been a great truck. Keep up with routine maintenance and you should be fine. Mizeide is right on with the torsion crank and its side effects. Might not hurt to flush the transmission (if it has not been done already). If a lift is in the future, do it right the first time. You...

    How are you carrying your boats?

    Back rack with a home made yak rack engineered from cyclone fence posts. Surprisingly, it works rather well!

    2014 Ram Powerwagon

    Anyone know what the towing capacity will be on the new power wagon with the 6.4? The earlier PWs with the 5.7 gasser were a good bet less than the non PW 2500 with the 5.7 gasser (if my memory is correct). I would hope it would be at least 12K given that GMC will have a half ton that can pull...

    Kelly Safari TSR Tire Review

    I have had my Kelly TSR tires for about 2.5 to 3 years. Great tire. Can't say enough good things about them. Got about 12-15k miles on them (i don't have to drive far to and from work) and they still have great tread. They are a little louder than a BFG AT but not near as loud as a Maxis...

    8x8 HEMTT Expedition Vehicle w/Garage

    I agree, that is awesome. I do have a question though which applies to not only this sweet rig but other ex military style vehicles. Who does the maintenance? It is not like there are parts at auto zone for that thing. I can only imagine how you would change out a water pump. I say this only b/c...

    The Evolution of a Jeep Grand Cherokee

    Be careful with those spacers on the Ole Grand Cherokee! :Wow1: I had a 98 ZJ with the budget boost (essentially spacers) that I really liked but it developed the "Death Wobble" This occurred usually between 45-55 MPH. If i was traveling that speed and hit just the tiniest of bumps, it would set...

    WHAT WINCH DO YOU HAVE ON YOUR FULL-SIZE TRUCK? ...pleez post pics...

    my winch My ride is a 2004 ext cab z71. The truck has a rancho lift and i run 35 inch tires. I have a warn transformer winch mount and a warn xd9000i on a multi mount. The fact I can use it on the front or back has come in handy many times. How many times have you been stuck going forward and...

    Forest Service Road Adventure Mobile

    Kelly tsr's Glad to hear some one else using the Kelly tsr! Got a set on my half ton silverado. Run 35's on a 17 inch rim all year. (Unfortunately more pavement than dirt) These are great. I do have a ?. Do the bfg's not do well in the winter? Or is the all terrain tread with studs on the tsr's...

    Kelly Safari TSR - Looking For Feedback

    Got them in a set of 315 70 r17. Had them for about a year. Very good tire on road and off. Great reduction in road noise since I had Maxis buckshots on prior to the tsr's. Good ride as well. Anyone that gets these will not be disappointed provided they do not expect the performance off road...
