I guess that's why the have a disclaimer recommending a certain tire size on their website.

Hey, I red the nice chart they have posted and you violated the max size. So what did you read that said they would warranty it?

Not exactly stock,...
Will the allow you to exchange it using their dif. exchange program? You could then sell the replacement to somebody with smaller tires/etc. and recoup some of the loss, as opposed to just chucking it,...

YES!!! I'm running them front and rear (Both D44's), 4.88's, and 35" MTZ's.
I've heard lots of issues with the ECTED in person and online. Definitely going with an Elocker in the D30.
Isn't the Auburn just clutches in there? I wouldn't really expect that to hold up to such huge tires. It's just friction that is giving you a 'locked' feeling. Too much stress from huge tires and there goes your friction material. It's like trying to do burnouts all the time with a honda motor and 26" slicks.

hmmm around here i am the little guy but as far as the tires being to big of course no one told me this when i bought it and i told them my set up, hell they sold me the set up so i feel just a bit violated.....yes they did off the replacement at 260 but like i said i am the little guy around here and don't have a huge market to sell to, well no more wheelin till next spring no matter what i go with ....whats an elocker worth

My buddy had the same problem with his ARB the warranty is void on tires over 31 inches! I'll take an aussie that way if you break it and they won't cover it you don't have to sell one of your children to get another one.
