    Gasoline smell, loss of fuel parked

    Mine was changed out when my transmission went bad (not related I know). After trans replaced it still wasnt running right so they replaced filter. Turns out the pump had failed but hey filters are cheap. One less 07 problem.

    Best RIM Size Selection for Off Road

    I agree with 17s. They are easier to find a good deal on just about any tire you choose and best for the reasons already mentioned. The general rule in tire size is less rubber in it means more expensive. Ask anyone who has had 20s and 17s.

    Picked up a Northstar X2 Power AGM battery today

    I have a battery tender 10w solar 12v charger and I like it. I use it on my optima yellowtop which is agm and leave it on the hood or bed all day. It has a charge controller built in and 10watts is kind of impossible to charge too fast.

    Is it worth downsizing the wheels and tires?

    I got falken wildpeaks on my GMC truck and they are E rated but its a 6" lifted old beast that rides like a stagecoach anyways so durability was my main concern. That thing hits river washouts like a champ.

    E rated tires on an expy? Unless you are hitting trails hard where rocks are an issue they wouldnt be my first choice.

    Is it worth downsizing the wheels and tires?

    I guess I never liked the fact that the less tire you get the more it costs. A 22" wheel costs more for a tire than an 18" wheel. You already pay more for the wheel but at least its REALLY more wheel. Smaller wheels are also protected a little better against damage with more sidewall bulge. But...
