heres a few pics of this weekend. i dont have any good pictures of my wheels but both bent and one cracked.

Heres how the night began. We left my house at 6pm heading for Tennessee.

I was running 185 psi and one of my airlines that connected tank to tank blew a big hole in it. 0 psi in about 3 seconds.


Square D pressure switch fucked up on me and i'm trying to fix it. eventually just hot wired it to a switch.


I do not have wipers or defrost and i had to stop to get some rain X and shaving cream to prevent fog lol


After 18 hours of broken rims, airlines, pressure switches, trailer rides and driving all over Tennessee trying to find a spare wheel and get my 24 welded i make it to the show




notice the flat rear tire and folded bed corner from the trip down


back to the hotel. i thought this guy was going to run my truck over! lol he backed in between two body drops


tuckin stock rim


shitty pic of the way home. i bent another 24 and tore the bed corner and had AAA come pick me up.



I bought a new bed corner today for $125. I got quoted $1240 for two new 24's w/ 30 series tires this time. When i originally bought the wheels i didnt think i could fit bigger tires. Well they will fit. I am just gonna order the two 275/30r24 tires and make sure they'll fit up front and then order two more for the rear if they do.

Does anyone have any opinions on the 275/30r24 tires? are they gonna last me more than 300 miles this time?

Also we are going to re do the rear bag mount set up. Trying to think of some kind of canitlever. It will have shocks on it this time too!!! Should have it ready for Havoc hopefully.
