TSL's are not so hot on street. Hawgs last decent and are good mudders, however, they are directional and are horribly out-of-round. MTs are a good 50/50 balance between mud/street tire.
I think Im gonna get a winch now...
Edit: You should get a "full body shot" of your truck in your gallery, it sounds awesome.

The duct tape is to duck tape the Distributor Cap. The exhaust extender's are just basically pipe that fit very very well into the exhaust pipe, and rise up about 3-4 feet. it's really easy just go and buy a peice of piping like maybe 3 feet, have it bent (i work at a power plant so i get free stuff 
) wrap it with something like a gasket holder or clamp and your set

i was told by my lawyer that the ticket will be dropped, but hes goin to juvie for a few weeks. but the trannies my problem because there wasnt insurance on the truck. i tried telling them the truck didnt have insurance because it was parked for the winter, but they said they cant do anything because it didnt have insurance at the time. so now im stuck with rebuilding the tranny which was just done a couple weeks ago.
