You have a good plan and good advice in the post above. I live alone in a rural area if I jack and crawl around alone I keep my cell phone very close and not in my pocket. If I can't reach it I can ask Google to call 911 (hopefully). Have fun. Be safe.
Had these on a Taco they are tremendous. I also bought a non-studded set once because we have had snow after the required date for removal of studded tires, also highly recommend. I even have studded bicycle tires by the same manufacturer.
Look at the big tread spacing to spit the snow out, and...
As far
Ride quality they will slightly stiffen your springs. They will help with a small load or a little roll. I'll be looking for the PM and get back to you.
I'm not @Gren71 but I'll step in and give a reply if that's ok. They didn't fit his aftermarket springs so he sold them to me, they fit stock Mojave springs very nice. Jack up on the frame and let the springs expand some and they can be worked in without too much difficulty. I wasn't using them...
I've had them just a few weeks now. I've put about 2,000 miles on them so far, and have disconnected about a dozen times. I'm two weeks into a 4-5 week trip right now and probably use the disconnects another dozen times before I get home. I can't give a long term review but I do like that Apex...
Have a stock Mojave with the shorter Apex Autolynx installed. I like them, they don't hit fender liners, no cutting, I did use some 7/16 washers as spacers to help align them a little better.
This was recommended to me and I tried it, it's damn good for instant. Damn good. I know I'm going to get flamed for this but next time you're on a day hike to your favorite fishing hole leave the filters, press, or whatever behind and find a stick and stir this up.
One more thing if you attempt to drill with a carbide drill. The carbide part is usually just the tip and they are brittle. Not a problem most of the time, but with something like a tap where it's fluted the drill cutting (carbide) edge rotates passed the flute part and hits hits the tap part...
If you want to try to drill you'll want a carbide drill bit and it's still nearly impossible, the progress is painfully slow and difficult to keep centered. Try to find a left-handed drill bit. If you drill it and don't stay center and oversized the hole you still might be able to save it with a...
Pay what you want. Don't buy if you don't want. Blaming the Boomers for a free market?
Boomer style business? Really? Boomers invented it? I didn't know that, thanks for the info. Learn something new everyday.
There are some videos on installing them, do a YouTube search and several will show up, they can be a little tight. Also there's a extension cable available from Z automotive so next time you don't have to stand on your head, $30.
