Shit going to be awhile. Plan for now is to keep what I got and plate the frame. I'll go to 14" possibly one day but not right now.

 

Why you plating?

 

The frame channel is a C, so you plate the inside to beef it up. Only the rear section after the cab, plating the entire frame would be pretty difficult

 

I know. He's not jumping dunes, so why plate it? Is he seeing problems? Is what he is doing going to cause it to bend? What are his reasons to plate it?

 

OP likes to spend money

I may plate mine down the road, I'll look into it, I know 1st gens are weak af

 

Even with heavy weight and hard drops can cause stress, I've never wheeled with andrew so I couldn't say. Id like to do it one day but to remove the stock tire carrier to mount a water tank, air tank, and rear mounted winch but thats down the road

 

This just after the cab not entire truck. After seeing @SGTCap get his done a few months ago it's been on the list so I figured I'll get it done while doing all this other stuff

 

Been known for the back half of the trucks to have a lot of stress and either shift/bend over time. Rather go ahead and do it while it's straight than wait till it has messed up.

 

My frame is plated

 

Ok so Ive decided that I'm going with the 37x12.50r17 falken wildpeak MT's

 

So why even post the poll if you're not going to pay attention to it?

What did the poll favor? MTRs?
