    Ctis, air lockers and bigger 14.5x20 tires...

    Well if you ever get the air lockers installed, let us know how long it takes you to break some u joints and/or axle shafts. I believe that you will benefit from adding a split brake system to your truck.

    Finally Got My ARB Air-Lockers...

    Air lockers would be sweet. I would have them individually actuated, so you could just engage 1 for some extra traction without the severe load on the driveline

    M1031 HMMWV tire pressure

    I think I run 25psi in mine. What rims you running? mine are on the stock 6 7/8" wide M880 rims, a little narrow as the recommended width is like 8 1/2. I'd say mine likes to "follow the road" due to being on narrow rims, but I have not felt sway when trailering. 6200 lbs of M886 on an 1800 lb...
