Kevin,

I recently finished my 4wd upgrade.
I see in your pictures and noticed that they include two wheels and tires.
Were they included with your kit or did you purchase them separately?
My kit did not include these wheels & tires.

Thank you in advance for your response.

There are alot of parts that are stronger than the stock ones and I have been surprised how different alot of the parts are in the conversion.
It is a very comprehensive kit and has been very well thought out.

There is a couple of mods that you have to do to completely seal the diff cases and then it will be dirt free..

Look at post #8 in the following thread
