    Damn if I hadn't already bought and installed the steel crawler bumper from @Fluxor last year I'd be all over this. GLWS!

    Do any of the loaner tool balljoint presses work?

    I bought that same set when I did my ball joints, no complaints either.

    Why are my tires not holding a bead off road?

    I haven't, but I'll add this to the list of things to rule out. When I'm wheeling I air down with a rapid tire deflator that has a gauge but I also have a spare gauge that I could compare results with.

    Why are my tires not holding a bead off road?

    If I understand you, you're saying the interior edge of the tire should be on the left-hand said of that ridge aka the safety bead?

    Why are my tires not holding a bead off road?

    This is out in the high desert here in So Cal, known as Calico, near Barstow. Lots of tight canyons and abandoned mines to explore.

    Why are my tires not holding a bead off road?

    I think I'm going to try them at 12 psi next time and see how that goes. If this problem continues I'll have to think about trying to try and clean them up the rim. Was a fun day otherwise!

    Why are my tires not holding a bead off road?

    Is this something that I could do myself now that the tires are already mounted? Could I completely deflate the tire on the rim and clean up the mounting surface and get some tire lube?

    Why are my tires not holding a bead off road?

    My BFGs were load c I went back and found a photo.👍 That's what I'm trying to figure out is whether I'm just running too low of a pressure for this particular set of tires or if it's possibly related to the bubba at the used tire shop that installed these.

    Why are my tires not holding a bead off road?

    Yes same wheels. The sidewall says it is a 3 ply sidewall, maybe that's part of the problem? I think the BFGs are 10 ply? They are load range c as well, but so were my BFGs.

    What's wrong with my brakes?

    It looks like the bracket that spans the shoes had springs on both sides instead of just the one yellow one? Also, is your cable routed correctly? It looks like it is running behind that tab on the cable guide on the bottom but in front of the tab on top?

    Advice on possible purchase LJ vs LJR

    I get the desire for the unicorn, but man what you've got right now is pretty sweet. That's one of my favorite colors. Does your current rig have lockers?
