Nice, I mounted up my spare today. It was a pain in the @ss getting the insert inside of the tire. Even had it sitting out in the sun for about 2 hours before I tried. After I got it in and bolted it doesn't leak. Now just need to get the gears installed then I can get the others mounted and put on.
The Xplosion going to be ready for SB?

yes i have been doin stuff just had to take a little more than the weekend off, now its back to work! swaped the old spring plates for some new ones frome ruffstuff specialties wanted something strong for the rocks to beat on, so this went on ruffstuff diff cover started mounting the ram mount last week but i did'nt like how it was sitting so i moved it down and tried to tweak it up but the tie rod links would touch the ram mount at full lock. gonna wled up the tie rods tonight and get it all put together and work on mounting the orbital
