Re: Canadian sources for Jeep parts and off-road tires
Can't help on the sources but lift shackles are not usually
reccomended: They tend to bend the spring mounts as well as
screw up the caster.

Re: Canadian sources for Jeep parts and off-road tires
I just read that again.
I thought you were going to off rod your rig, not put it on a show
floor.
I have seen those TSL 'stuckbirds' in action once. I 'really' felt
sorry for the poor Jeep driver. His 3 or 4 passengers were out pushing
him across some muddy grass while a Pontiac Acadian full of kids drove
in circles around him just pissing themselves laughing!
As far as I know those tires are 'show' tires only, they 'sure' won't go
anywhere on our Ontario trails.

Re: Canadian sources for Jeep parts and off-road tires
Hi Mike,
He didn't specify Interco TSL Thornbirds. Just guessing, but he's
probably interested in Interco TSL Super Swampers:
