I know the JK you're talking about - but don't know the person. I don't think it's anyone on the forum though . And when it's time to put the bumper on, let me know - I'll be happy to give you a hand with that

Haven't been to Arbuckle Wilderness yet, but it sounds like a nice place - been past/around that a few times. Lake Murray is about 45 mins - an hour south of there though - past Ardmore.

I'd love to - but would like to do Colorado and Moab in one shot - maybe a 10 - day vacation or so, plus or minus a couple of days as needed. Problem I have is that by the time most of the trails open up in Colorado, it'll be searing hot in Moab, and if you go earlier, most of the trails in Colorado will be still closed or snowed in. . Our plan is to try and do it in July - maybe early July and go to Moab first and hit the trails in Colorado/Ouray on the way back.

When I got my tires, it went straight on to new steel wheels - so there was no "swapping" involved. I think I paid around $65 in all for 5 wheels, mounted and balanced - they used to charge $10/tire mount and balance + tax at the time. I know prices have gone up since and I'd probably expect to pay around $100 - $150, especially if you're getting existing tires swapped out.

Awesome. I'm trying to see if we can come up there sometime Sunday morning - not 100% yet, but I'm going to try. You guys already started the tear down?

Sorry Brandon. I saw you almost at the last minute and made sure to wave. If you hadn't been in the turn lane (and I was on my way to go pick up a colleague that had to drop off a truck to get some accessories done), and if I wasn't in a rush, we could've stopped and visited for a few - must say, the Jeep's look AWWWWWWFULLY clean . What happened to a dirty jeep is a happy jeep?

Ahem... Some other things topless are way better, but so far, this is the next best thing . Sometimes, you just gotta make the best of what you got

LOL. Sometimes, it's hard NOT to be excited. I know I was when I was expecting a mod to come in - I think waiting for that was worse than watching water boil or watching paint dry .

No sir. It's a very nice 76 degrees in Lawton, OK - you should come down here and take in some of the sunshine.

Looks like it's a few degrees cooler up there.

Very true. While stock lugnuts are ok for some time, you want to get some good lug nuts in the long run. I went with Mcgard's and they've worked great so far. Just wish I'd gone with the black ones instead of shiny stainless steel
