    Falken Wildpeak AT4W

    Interesting info on the falken site is they do not have "duraspec" sidewalls on many of the models. Most sizes are listed as "standard" sidewall. I'm assuming that means just 2 ply.

    Where to buy sand ladders aluminum

    Already mentioned in here but these are the aluminum version of landing mats. A good deal cheaper, but I have no idea if you could bridge with them. https://colemans.com/shop/material-handling/landing-mat-aluminum/

    Tool Development in Progress

    Doesn't anyone read "The Emperor's new clothes" anymore? I still say this is all healthy. Carl will read his audience and costumer base better at his next interaction or take the business where no one dares to say the emperor isn't wearing anything. Thats a win/win in my book.

    Tool Development in Progress

    Its a good post all around. "Expo" has been a prime target for get rich quick products. The community is wising up as a whole. I was happy when the $20 hatchet painted green and selling for $70 was outted a few months ago. That means we are looking out for one another now and less of a group of...

    Body Resting On Rock Sliders. Solutions?

    I'd try a single cut from the bottom of the legs 90% of the way to the top. Bend the sliders down and reweld at a 1" gap from the rocker panal.

    3rd Gener's with 4.88's ....mpg?

    I'm at 12.5-13 corrected MPG with 35's, more armor, 4.88 and crappy California gas. You've got something going on there, but you could chase it along time for an extra 3mpg

It is pretty true about the sorts of discussions on ham, but its just ******** chat on par with any other form of communication with strangers as said already in this thread I have not seen any bullying to new hams on repeaters in socal, but I'm sure its out there...

    1.tires that wont pop aka C, D or E rated and as large as your gearing and MPG will support. 2. camping gear 3.Armor the tender spots 4. moderate lift if you find you are on the skids all the time. 5. sliders only because #6 will make you take harder trails. 6. rear locker for control on...

    Pak-Lite

    Those LEDs aren't built for efficiency like today's modern LEDs. Unless you have lots of 9v batteries to use up there are better options out there, although those will certainly work great. Try budget light forums.com for the latest good stuff or candlepowerforums for the latest expensive stuff.

    Single side ban, or suck it up and eat the HAM...

    I think you'd be lucky to run into one other truck with a SSB capable CB and when you do you'd have to teach them how to use it. I know thats a grim outlook but its really like that for 4x4. I'd guess truckers and base stations may be more into SSB, but if the goal is range and talk to more...

    Anyone have any experience with any of the RTTs sold on Alibaba

    You'd have to set up a group buy to come out on top with that website. I've seen single ones for sale but then your savings is eaten up by the shipping.
