    Just saw this thread. Congrats in the axles. About the axle width---I wouldn't want to different sets of wheels on the rig. I agree with Posimoto.

    Will your trailer jack stop Greenie?

    If you drink and weld at the same time - it needs to be DARK beer... Helps with the weld flash :)

    42's would be HUGE. My Jeep would look so little and so cute next to Sir Greenie. Oh well. I gotta make a mall run later today in it. Its going to a bit technical to negotiate. I always try to get rockstar parking . . . . R)
