You friggin COD addicts!!!!!!!!! So lets see the Zj with those beadlocks on her!! :) I'm thinking getting COD5 may be a curse, so I might just have to skip it till its out of fashion---ha ha!!
Your gonna die a lonely man before that happens mag haha! Fuzz is lazy and didnt get them on yet. For god's sake! All you have to do is fill them with dynabeads by pouring them in the valve stems and then fill them with air and mount. Whats the issue? Thats a baaaaad fuzzy

It's actually even easier than that. Pour them in the side between the 4" gap. Now do we try to "pop" the tire around with lighter fluid or the boring way with high pressure air at a gas station...decisions decisions ;)

I personally always seat my beads using starting fluid and a lighter...gives me some practice for the trails.
Got a vid of yourself? I've seen a bunch on youtube but I figured I'd ask ;)

Salt Shed was the first trail I ever ran with my GC. Darned shame if they close it.
I hear you there War! I wonder if there is a petition or something along those lines we could do.
 
My club is thinking about trail clean-ups and such to try to appease the powers that be. Not sure what else can be done. We had one clean-up in that area a while back but it wasn't long before it got all tore up again shortly after we were done. We filled 2 "1 800 Got Junk" trucks with all the trash we hauled out of that trail.

The general opinion among some of the clubs (including ours) is the locals are doing most of the damage, not the clubs who host organized trail rides in that area.
 
Ha no sorry no vids. It's really simple, just starting fluid around the bead, then a lighter...a long lighter, not a "Bic".

Yeah one of those grille lighters!! Do not want to burn the fuzz off of Fuzzy!! Just make sure your dynabeads are not flammable too. Never used em so do not know. I do know a racer who did that with a flammable balancing powder, NOT GOOD!! He was ok, but scared the h3ll out of him and ruined the rim and tire.

I wanted to do it myself but it got pushed into serious overdrive last nite lol. If we get motivated tonite Pat, Smithers, Maxx, and myself might push the beadlocks to a gas station and air them up :D

Haha, I don't think we do. But then again after spending what I have I don't think $3 at the air pump is going to drag me down :D

And you know if I hop on duty I'm going to end up not getting my tires done you jerk!
 
I wont be on so no worries, get your damn tires done! I may be getting myself some beadlocks and Krawlers come spring for my wheeling meats. We shall see though

The alignment and exhaust is done in the 5.9 and it sounds great. The combinatin between the magnaflow and the aero sounds really good and its suprisingly reasonably quiet inside the jeep. Worked on the beads a little last nite as well. After a few failed attempts at the high air pressure pump starting fluid was in order. We got one of the tires to set after a small explosion ;) I'll take a video of us doing it on Saturday pending weather issues :)
