    Well I didn't say where.

    And the 130's are supposed to handle better than the 90's when you have a state to turn around in.

    Ah but dave I have spent some big $$$ overhauling the beast since then. All thats left to do now is the rear axels and flanges for the driveline to be in perfect order or so I have been told.
    I even had the transfer checked for no good reason than I could at the time.
