My buddy has Deegan 38's in a 35 on his Ram 1500. They perform really well. Have a howl to them, but grab just as good as my Toyos

Been hearing more and more about these tires the last few months. So far I've read nothing but positives about them. Looking forward to your opinion of them.

I've heard nothing but good about them, was told they have a hum to them but aren't near as bad as you'd think they would be and are better than most MTs.

Project Solaris has them and he loves them, hoping I feel the same!

I noticed that once I had a few hundred miles on my R/T's and rotated them they quieted down a little bit. My advice would be to rotate your tires at the 500 or 1000 mile mark when you go back to have the torque check on your lift.

What did you paint?

The pillars. Made them black to go with the rest of the interior. Doing the rest of the pillars in the next week and eventually I want to make the headliner black and colormatch anything on the roof that is hard plastic

Rims finally shipped Yesterday, arriving on Tuesday but so bitter sweet that I'll be out of town from this Saturday till next [emoji35]

I'll be calling the shop tomorrow hopefully and making an appointment for one of the first days I'm back home to get everything put in.

 

Also I got a chance tonight to finish painting the pillars. Waiting for them to dry so I can do another coat right now

Neither(:

Mickey Thompson Deegan 38s (in a 35x12.5x20 size. 38 is not the size, just part of the model.) It's a MTZ-ATZ hybrid

Yeah i knew of the Deegan 38s, i thought they were strictly MTZ. They look great, more aggressive than the ATZp3.

      The Peckish Synapse

      Well that book won't sell many copies. Taking ones right foot off the loud pedal never gets applause. Funny really, It isn't that people don't know what to do...they just don't want to do it. But they will complain about it. About bad craftsmanship, about the cost of fuel, about the cost of part and repairs and mainly they complain that the solution while still possible isn't one they are willing to do.    I observe this daily. 'Gas cost to much!", they wail, while they mat it passing at 80+ mpg and scoot down the road like gas cost a dime a gallon. Then complain about the few that will lift and save both fuel and iron like they are owed and own the road.    Good thing they haven't an ounce of influence on my equipment. The rest I just laugh at. Stupid is as stupid does, right Forest?

      Gas Prices

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Today I filled up with 4.899 gallons of fuel at a cost of $4.899 a gallon. $24 bucks. 290 miles. 59.2 mpg. After my 4% COSTCO discount just under eight cents a mile.

      14-18 Sierra 1500 Heated Steering Wheel Help

      By SwitchBladeSierra · Posted

      Howdy folks,   Recently I pulled a heated steering wheel and clock spring out of a 2015 Sierra All Terrain (part numbers coming soon - will have to disassemble), and just installed it on my 2016 Sierra WT (as base model as it gets).   On install, I noticed that I’m missing the connector often tucked behind the dash for the heating element.     No problem… or so I thought.   I used an “Add-A-Fuse” at my heated steering wheel fuse location, which has voltage, but no wires. I ran it to the positive of the heated steering wheel (Violet/White), and took black to ground.   Hooked up the battery, turned the truck on - no heated steering wheel. No button backlights. Was pleased to see that my cruise control was working though.   Read a post suggesting reversing polarity, so I gave it a shot. Violet and White to ground, Black to power.    Aha! Heat! But I seemingly can’t turn it off AND still no backlights on any of the buttons.    Checked all fuses, everything is still in good order. I’m stumped.   Does anyone have any insight? If so, please share!

      Brake Pad Warning Message

      By TrueBlue · Posted

      I'm about 1800 miles into my last oil change, and yesterday a message appeared saying oil life was at 77%. Not sure why it popped up but I think all of these electronics could be susceptible to solar flares or somesuch. I change my oil right at 3K each time, and that was the first time in 10870 miles that message came up. Strange thing is that it showed on the screen at all since I don't drive with that sort of info displayed on the DIC.
