I'm sure everybody is just running the 27" BHs unless they have the smaller tires on steel wheels.

that's what i have but it has so much torque i was thinkin 30 inch truck tires, skinny super swampers or like, i seen where a guy put 31's on a 620. i think it was on tractorpoint. i need more lift. heard anything about a lift voiding warranty?

When I bought my Gator 825i they mentioned something about a 2" lift. But I declined. Now I am having on custom built. I plan on putting 30" Zillas on it. Also got a custom made roof being built right now for it. I couldnt see paying $404 for a plactic roof when I could get a custom diamond plate roof for $500. Heres a link if your interested. I am in know way involved in the business and have nothing to gain, but thought yall might like to see what else is out there for a little more money. www.triplecwelding.com

I paid less than $400 for this one LineX'd and shipped to me. The non-LineX one is less.

Does that price include lights or rack like shown on website, or just the roof?

Everything it shows in the picture comes at that price lights, rack and roof. I opted for a smooth roof instead of the diamond plate for no extra charge. And there done in about a week.. $500. Sweet deal.

Figured you must be from around here if you were going to Cleburne.
I'm in the Dalls area and seriously considering one of their roofs.

Got the roof installed and it looks good. Gonna take a little longer on the lift. Here are a couple pics. I may put a flat black paint job on it and add some more lights.

Looks good.
I ordered one last Friday. Didn't get the rack because I wouldn't have been able to get it in the garage.
How do you like the lights?
