    5 ton recovery gone horribly horribly right!

    I appreciate the info and had planned on changing it out or at minimum having a tire shop do a full inspection. that said, how do any of you know that the rest of your tired were not stored or driven flat at some point and then just reinflated? so aren't we all taking this risk just by...

    5 ton recovery gone horribly horribly right!

    I won't use the tapatalk thing on my phone so the photos were delayed until now. Scary to think that I paid less than what the sales tax would have been for an original purchase. auction closed under $3600! extras in the back. didn't know anything was there until i got home. couple engine...

    5 ton recovery gone horribly horribly right!

    Gimpy, LA this weekend the South America right after so sadly no Haspin. The two front tires are Goodyear and the rear 4 and spare are Michelin. I'd like to find replacements for the front so they all match.

    trailer recovery and data plate question

    lowes truck would have been large enough to strap it on top of the back as they did not have a hitch. and then would not have to deal with any brake issues or anything else during transport. next idea was the home depot truck. same price but these are like f25s with a bigger flat bed. bed is...
