Your going to love them I run the Guard Dogs on myF150 Great tires!

 

[ZuluBravoTango]

Nice to hear, the nextdoor neighbor runs them on his 3 toyotas and swears by them. I still cant believe I got 4 tires for under 500 bucks... Insane.

Alright, got some stuff installed! Tires, lift, shocks, lightening headlights & corners, plastidipped the grill, and threw on the Surco safari rack. Still have to do the tail lights, plastidip the wheels (have new chrome center caps) & plastidip the front bottom plastic & the tow bar, flat black the hood, mount the brush guard, install 6 procomp lights, Nerf Bars on the sides, get the elec fans on, tb spacer, and I am thinking about a MAF upgrade. Anyway, this is how she sits today.

[ZuluBravoTango]

Yeah it was friggin cold. Froze the back on the concrete... Darn thing doesnt fit in the garage anymore... but I count that as a good thing!

Thanks Walnuts! I'm done with winter too. Hope you see spring soon in N NY, now matter what Phil the rodent said! I'm ready to flip the switch on spring!

Hey, has anyone painted thier hood to deal with overhead light reflection? With this silver, I would bet it will be killer for me. Kind of common in the land rover world, but I dont see too many rigs here with it. I will give the lights a shot with the bare hood, but I'm putting the flat black down if I get bounce back. I am debating on if I will paint the whole hood flat black, or just between the creases.

Thanks for looking!
