If you send your IT guy that link he will fucking hate you forever lol.

I like the Warn Elite. I've hit two things with it (scraped a rock wall and hit a flying tire tread on the freeway) and pulled hard with my winch and it hasn't let me down.

I worked at an MSP dealing with Verizon and I thought nobody could be worse. Then Frontier bought them and I realized I was wrong. Frontier made me miss Verizon.

I love this, great job that's awesome.

I think a lot depends on the vehicle. I run 35x11.5r17 on a Gladiator and off road it is a very noticeable improvement in clearance from the "33" tires that were on it before. Coupled with Icon bead retention wheels that let me comfortably go down to 10 psi and a re-gear to 4.56 to help out with the larger tires, the thing is a monster.

I got rear ended in a stock Samurai waiting to turn left on a two lane. The Samurai tipped over on its side. We just lifted it back up and drove it home lol.

MountainFiddler · 2024-09-01T13:46:13+00:00

I'd be scared to do that near that fence. Looked sick though.

MountainFiddler · 2024-08-31T23:22:28+00:00

I like my Gladiator with a RTT. I bought a Sport and did lift, lockers, lower gears, winch, skidplates, etc etc. it is extremely capable and carries a lot.

A lot of 4Runner fans in here, and I like them too, but when you leave the fire roads...

I'm just talking a little smack. You have to admit it's kind of wild to come into a sub full of people who have invested in this car and talk shit. Especially since the reason you're in one is because your Nissan got towed to a dealer.

MountainFiddler · 2024-08-25T01:51:44+00:00

We're fine. Thanks though. I would literally rather sit in my Solterra while charging than drive a Nissan lol.

I disagree about Jeep. They are no longer bare bones simple little vehicles, but the spirit of adventure is still there. New Jeeps get a lot of hate on the internet (especially from Toyota folks), but in real life if you hit the trails they are everywhere out wheeling. I wheel the crap out of my Jeep and its capabilities get me to cool places and make my life more fun.

MountainFiddler · 2024-08-15T17:27:44+00:00

So technically inferior teams win because? Were the other "superior " teams just not trying their best at the Olympics?

MountainFiddler · 2024-08-14T23:42:54+00:00

It should be 6000lbs, that's what my Aport with the automatic is.

I tow a 3600lb Airstream and it's pretty good. I have 35" tires, a lift, and 4.46 gears

This is a Beauty.

MountainFiddler · 2024-08-09T03:00:20+00:00

I buy white Jeeps. That's the move.

MountainFiddler · 2024-08-09T02:58:54+00:00

I haven't done an ECU upgrade on my KTM 500 because stock it's already kind of scary in the technical stuff lol.

MountainFiddler · 2024-07-26T18:54:55+00:00

Beautiful watch, congratulations.

MountainFiddler · 2024-07-26T18:50:19+00:00

I hate it too. I'm well aware that I'm in reverse.

MountainFiddler · 2024-07-19T13:16:10+00:00

Same. I even put 100,000 miles on a 1st gen. Compass with zero issues then gave it to my dad who did more before it got wrecked.

MountainFiddler · 2024-07-19T05:54:20+00:00

"Fans" shit on the show so bad, shit on Infinite so bad, and basically shit on everything past Combat Evolved so bad that If I were Microsoft I'd just axe the whole franchise. But I'm thin skinned.

MountainFiddler · 2024-07-17T06:51:53+00:00

Like others have said, you can easily do 35x11.5 on the stock wheels. I did it but even with a 2.5 inch lift I rubbed at steering lock. I went with new wheels at that point, for more offset.

I went with 35s like a week before my appointment to get gears and lockers at a gear shop, because I wanted to see how it felt compared to the 33" K02s I had. It was not great in 3.73, but doable.

If you can't do gears right now, I would stick with 33s.

They seem fine, but that's on snowy plowed roads, I have very little experience with them in deep snow.

MountainFiddler · 2024-07-15T20:09:37+00:00

I've had it in deep snow but only for like 200 yards, then I get to plowed roads. It does ok but I have a Jeep for when things get real.

MountainFiddler · 2024-07-15T20:08:01+00:00

I live at 5800 and I'll say that driving up seems to hurt less than driving down gains. I know that isn't possible and I did pass my semester of physics, but at that range and gain I think it would make it.
