Damn it looks like you are growing grass in the back. So what did you break while doing all this?
 
rear diff, clutch bell bearing and a up right c-hub

apart from that it was a good day LOL
 
Drill 4 1/8 inch holes in the center of your tires at 12, 3, 6 and 9. That way, when it gets up to speed, centrifugal force spins the water out. I've been doing it to all my tires for 5 years. works pretty good... except for mud. Over time, mud creates weight inside and throws the tire off balance even when dry.

I find it easiest to put the bit in my dremel on slow speed with light pressure. It creates a nice clean edged hole. Takes a little time, but it works well.
