Get the tires balanced for the 800 mile drive, it'll likely be a rough ride home.  I might pull one of the rear seats to make loading easier and keep the weight down slightly.  Possibly a CB radio install, we'll see about that.

Nah, 8" is what I have between my rear spring mount and the end of my frame.  So I'm going to push the spring mount to the end of my frame, then cut out the rear body panel so that the tires can fit.
Not sure if I can pull that off before the trip though :dunno:
