They are the BFG AT KO's... I have recently put them on and found they are remarkable. For something just starting out finding what the G can do they do the job plus more. In addition, they function perfectly on-road both highway and local. |

About that... As I was getting out of the truck in the second photo the door slipped out of my hand and CRACK there goes the unit which stops the door from going past 90degrees. From what I can see it is attached to the top hinge. probally adding 80USD to the part price...

Thank you. I have already sent an e-mail to Eurotruck... waiting for response. When I first looked at it it looked like it was separate pieces but upon closer inspection it was attached to the entire hinge, something I assume can only double the price of the piece.
On a side note, I will be in the Atlanta area around later this week (June 8/9) on a cross-country car delivery and plan to stop EuroTruck and see what goodies I can pick up. I will keep you posted about the hinge.
Thanks, Eric |

I just paid $25.00 each for two from the classified. They are REALLY easy to replace. There is one on GBay but it is a bit different then mine......

Beautiful scenery. Nice pictures. Thank you for sharing.
He did say "off-road lite" :)
Right he did and you are right amzimmy should have should have posted this comment , appologies ericdab.
ericdab ,
I have used to run the BFG AT KO's they are good over all performance and are not so loud on road , the only place you will hate them is in the mud .
For a combination of on road and soft core off road they are a very good choice .
Good luck with your G wheeling , soon you will be amazed to now how far a G can Go .
ReG ,
