Thanks jaybeecon. Its was a little time consuming (about 4 hours from start to finish) but it sure looks "tough". As for my tires, I ended up replacing them with the identical sizes, ie 25X12-10 and front is 25X8-12. I dont know if I have those numbers in the right order, basically 25" tall, 10 wide in the rear, 8 wide in the front on 12" rims. I wanted to keep it stock size because of the speedometer. Also didnt want to gear it up higher by using taller tires, the Eiger has no lo range in reverese and I've really had to hit it hard several times. Lo range would of been perfect. I got my tires off of Ebay from a dealer, it was http://www.tuckertire.com and the rear tires were $90 for the pair and $85 for the front pair. This was a great price and you can really feel the firmer sidewalls, especially in corners. Original tires handles poor in those conditions, but did just find in mud etc. I think it was the lack of plys too, I had 3 flats in short order, all holes were in the LR tire, the other 3 went un popped. I will probably sell them on ebay. Only had consumed about 5% of the tread on them.
