if they are TSL boggers, they are the best in the mud, but might not work well on the road being that they are bias tires. But they are DOT approved for street use and you shouldn't be making 40 MPH turns anyway. Pretty sure they do somewhat well in rock as well if they arew siped properly.

SO!!!.....
As a lot of you may know, most of our trucks did not come with door speakers...
Just the 4" Dash mounts. 1 is beside the glove box, and one just above the kick panel on the driver side.
So i decided i wanted a little bit more bump and grind in the yota
I custom made 2 boxes ( 5 1/4" at the bottom 3" at the top )
And bought two 10" Lightning Audio subs from the pawn shop for $40 bucks
And i bought a Planet Audio 400 watt amp with all the wires from a guy i know for $20 bucks
Went to wal-mart and got some Team Realtree camo carpet to wrap the speakers with and some cotton to stuff the boxes with. $22.00
it took me from 7:00 pm to 1:30 am to make the boxes, install the speakers, wire it all up and tune the amp.
So for $82.00 i got an AWESOME sounding stereo for my truck.
I can turn the sub down to a low bass bump and still here all of the words to the song clear as day.
And if i want to turn it up, its as simple as a pushin a couple of buttons.
I took a couple of pictures, but half way through i was so ready to be done that i completely forgot all about pictures. So ill show you the finished product in a few minutes.

So a little irritation has developed in the past couple of days...
Usually when im driving and i press the clutch in, within 1 to 2 seconds my RPM's immidietly drop to 750 like they should...
But recently when i press in the clutch my RPM's will raise to 1800 to 2200 and they VERY slowly decrease to 1000 or so...
No check engine light, full of oil and coolant...
No missfires, no loss in power.
The only mod ive done in the past few days was put two 10" speakers and a 400 watt behind the seat, could this be affecting anything with the idle situation?

So i ran a bottle of Fuel Injector cleaner with a full tank of premium gas through the truck, and it cleared the problems up, idle went back to normal, no hesitation in throttle response, everything was good to go.
I was riding through wal-mart parking lot and my buddie was in front of me in his silverado, he burped the gas one time and i returned the gesture only to figure out it felt like i had water in my gas, it threw a check engine code.
I gave it about half throttle and held it, after about 10 seconds in second gear and it coughed and sputtered but finally it cleared right up and my check engine light dissapeared..............
WTF....
Im probably going to put a new Oxygen sensor in it soon and see if that helps some of my problems.

Trucks running...Decent.
Ive figured out that when i first crank it up in the morning and drive it till it warms up, its sluggish almost like i have a little bit of water in my gas...
But if i cut it off for 30 seconds and crank it back up the check engine light disappears and the truck runs awesome.
I have NO idea, but im going to replace that O2 sensor soon.
Anyways...Here's a current update.
Supposedly my transmission has been backordered which is why it is taking so god awful long, and it wont be shipped out until monday.
But as soon as it is shipped out it should be here wednesday or so.
My plans are to buy this tranny and have it put in,
5:29 gears for the front and back. No locker yet
Buy a new O2 sensor, Front brake calipers, New valve cover gasket (Due to the newly developed oil leak coming from the rubber half moon gromet. I can never remember the name when i actually need it.
But what mods do yall reccomend next?
