Good information and another great video! I have always wanted to give this a try myself. However like you mentioned, having a trustworthy professional install the gears who does this more regularly I think is the smart choice!
I'd be down for an East Coast meetup also! Great idea. Has anyone considered Stoney Lonesome? Another decent option IMO but, any location would be awesome.
This has been my experience with sets of KO, KO2, KM, KM2. Some of the 35's were taking 13oz of weight to balance. Never again..
My current 40" Nitto Trail Grapplers with zero weight ride better than any BFG I ever owned.
