My middle tires were Michelin LTX M/S 225/75r16. they were great in the desert and Moab.

I don't know about the silver rub strips though... sorry.

The last 2 shots are with OME MD and 235/85r16 GY MT/R.
next wkend i am going to take off the brush guard. on the pass side the main bar (hold on to frame) got hit from the po and i just found out that the rust eat through, so it is held up mainly by the drivers side i would like to get a Aframe bar (if i can find one?) and get some hella driving lights. selling the ones on there now, works great but want a differnt set up.
check out ebay and craigslist about the rims. acouple of month ago on craigslist i saw someone in CO area selling 5 spoke black rims for $40 each w/ a tires and had all for $150! i am always looking for rrc stuff all the time (makes work go faster) so if i see another set i will pm u.
how did u like the 235/85?

I loved the brush bar look, but they sure had issues.

Now I'd like to get a stock RR, probably a 2 door from the mid 70's and make a convertable. I love the look of the stock front end on these RR's

I loved the 235/85! The MT/R tread, the MD OME lift and removal of all anti-sway bars made it articulate very nicely.. although I out grew that too. It never ends. Hence the 'new' old truck

That was the last one I saw for sale too!

Bad timing for me for now!

I think A frames can be had at Atlantic British for some $$$
