Time for my annual check - in I guess along with a few photos. We are still out and about when my schedule permits, no real changes to the vehicle EXCEPT I have now put in 3 different power steering pumps and also changed the steering box once, and that all happened since I went with the bigger tires. Coincidence? Maybe not? I have started to shop around here and there for a 285 size tire and may change back down to them. 💰💰I also note that the Coopers in this size seem to be difficult to keep well balanced, I have had them at four different tire shops getting balanced since I bought them 6 years ago ( maybe longer? my memory ain't great).
Anyway, - pics to follow

Random forest of Mountain Laurel in Cherokee NF - picked up a fair amount of trail striping on this drive. Oh well!
