Got it all, wife, three kids and a business to run.
My wife graciously gives me "extra" time when it's available.
Kids help me wrench when their in the mood as well.

Nice looking rig. Is your rear axle moved forward a little bit?

Yes, it's move forward 1.5" to allow for the wheel to stay centered when flexed.

Same for the front.

So far so good.
They drive/ride very good on surface streets. Fairly quite also.
I wouldn't call them a 'mud' tire but I believe they'll be a great compromise cause I plan on driving this thing to the trails instead of trailering.
