Default making progress

Got the new hubs on the front and new wheels/rubber on... what a difference... these M/T's are LRD vs 10 year old LRE Nittos... and the M/T's are noticeably less unsprung weight...

now to do the rear full floaters... 10 years and 37000 miles have been kind to this unit however it needs updating...

Great choice! I recently put on MT Baja Boss ATs. So far, no regrets!

Give us a report after those tires have seen a bit of dirt, snow, rocks, sand, and/or mud!!

everything off the main road down here is either rock , gravel, mud or ocean... my first 500 miles impressions are that the M/T EXP's are very quiet, ride better (LRD's vs LRE) compared to the Nitto Ridge grapplers... So far very happy
