Re: 4x4 Off Topic Thread
with how quick it fell, there was no way for someone to run over with an air hose. about 6 times the tire didnt even pop, just layed there and caught fire.
why did they make every 16.5 tire/wheel so shitty? why did they never go 'shit the beads have issues cause they arent big enough, lets fix that on our new run of tires/wheels'. seems retarded to me

that is the issue, there is no bead. most of your military 16.5s were the hummer run flats so there was no need for a safety bead. every other size rim pretty much has one

Re: 4x4 Off Topic Thread
we had one on there. until the end when it caught fire and burned in half. at that point we realized the fire extinguisher was empty lol
i know the humvee 36s and 37s had those, and they ran beadlocks, so i can understand. i dont have a spare 16.5 wheel around to look at but isnt the wheels rim missing some bead contact area too? or is it just the tire?

well... i got the truck fully back on the road today.... Transmission flush, filter, pan gasket, oil change / filter, new batteries, alternator, and replaced the drive belt
i was pretty happy with how the transmission looked when i got the pan / filter off.... it looked very clean and well taken care of.

Bought myself a new exhaust.... expecting for it to be a side exit exhaust like stock but received a dump. I do like the dump though but its 100 cheaper on the website....
I tried contacting the website "talk LIVE" chat person and they said I installed it wrong at first but then told me the picture was wrong. I asked " What about the description that says "single side exit"? The person stated it could be a wrong description and that she will contact the complaint division and tell them to change it
I went off... I said so you website has wrong info and I have to live with it? Even on the main website it shows the exhaust $100 cheaper than the part that I thought I ordered. I threw out the ... "so what you are telling me is that your website is presenting false advertisements?" She stated *im going to say she for sake of argument* that I need to bring it to a mechanic to make sure it fits right.
The part fits right...its the wrong damn part. I asked to speak to someone higher.... she decided to give me some 1800 number and that she couldn't help me any further. SHE DIDN'T HELP ME!
