That is awesome. I've never seen that "trick" to get a tire to reseat on the rim.

Than there is us old flat four/F head four banger guys who remember fixing tube flats on Firestone 7.75X16 Super AllTracs by splitting the rims on our Jeeps. We used our rigs for hunting and fishing and about the only way to get back there was the old fireroads or walking/horse riding. Needed more traction in the mud, we chained up. Ran out of brakes, just go down the hill butted up to your buddy and use his. Blow a clutch plate, turn the key off at each light and start it again when the light was green.
I just laugh at the guys that come on the sites and say that a only their new lifted, 35 inch tired, machine is a REAL Jeep.
Had a used Ramsey power takeoff winch on my rigs for 20 years, lubed it once and a while and changed drive shafts and u joints as it went from rig to rig during install.

I like all the recent threads about getting back to basic 4Wheelin'. I used to take my old KJ on 32's w/ DTT front and PowerTrax Rear on all the trails the 35's and bigger went. They would even ask me to "lead" sometimes. If you do so much, it becomes no challenge...and you don't learn to drive better. I would rather wheel with someone who has the correct recovery gear and armor on 31's than the 37's monster that can't drive to save his/her life.
