Black rocks that are 16x8 with 4.5" back spacing. The 1 tons are wider though. The stock m1009 15" rims are 8" wide with 4" back spacing.

I literally just got my tires mounted today. I have 315/75-16 bfg ko2's and a 2" lift (with 1 ton axles). You'll be doing a lot of cutting and with stock 3.08's the 6.2 will be struggling.
I'm in the process of putting 1 tons under mine with 4.10 gears so I'm hoping that'll really wake it up. I've had thoughts of doing a sm465 swap but I may stick with the th400 for trail use.
That's a tough one. The turbo will be cheap and easy to set up and it really wakes the 6.2 up (I'm running under 10psi).

A bike shop cannot add a new cable end to a cable as that's not common practice. There are companies that make these however

Apparently my post disappeared? I have a kit I was going to use but I think it's missing some small bits. You can look over the TM's (there is one for the winterization kit)
Yep, I feel the same way but it is what it is. Anything newer than 1976 must have emissions testing. Only thing exempt is cars that are less than 6 years old.
I moved from a state where my cucv was an antique vehicle with no emissions to here. Theres been plenty of recent debate about if...
