Default My 'mud buggy'...

A small beans project I've been tinkering on...
It was bone stock when I got it. I added some BFG mud terrains and a 2" body lift with a slight torsion bar crank.


It got the name 'mud buggy' from a friend that was poking fun at it. It was free
Wheels are next...was just going to go with something like this

Love those tires man, they look mean. How do they work offroad, or have you had a chance to try them out yet? Also, how to they ride on the highway...I found my offroad tires I had on mine when I first bought the truck rode like crap on the highway

I put the tires and a new wiper motor on and it hasn't rained here for over a month, go figure.

I'm not sure how the tires do offroad, but they seem to be fine on the highway. A little noise on the highway and a small vibration at 2-3mph only, but that's typical of a mud terrain tread.

We got a little bit of rain this morning, the first drops in 40-50 days. I'm anxious to take it and sling some mud...we might go hit an offroad park soon.
