King Ranch Armrests

My armrests are starting to show significant wear. Can / has anyone ever flipped the armrests over and used the opposite side's bottom as the new top? Does that even makes sense? IOWs- I want to use the good side of the armrest and want to know if the two sides (L & R) are interchangeable?

I did pretty much the same thing on mine, except that all I did was remove the King Ranch covers from the armrests, flip them and swap them for left and right. Took about 5-10 minutes, and you don't have to remove the armrests themselves.

By the way TX Hill Country, how do the 305/70/16 BFG AT's work on the factory KR wheels? Any balancing issues or rubbing?

They work great on the factory rims (16" KR rims), no balancing issues.

However, the leveling kit was required to eliminate rubbing when at full-lock turns.
