    Enjoyed having you, and I'm stocked we got some older rigs. I love my new fangled tech and stuff, but there's just something awesome about a 30 year old truck still getting it done.

    1. Springs are 886's, might be a little heavy for the weight i'm running but I like that its a little stiff.
    2. Full dakar pack, no leafs have been pulled.
    3. 90000 firm ride OME nitro chargers.
    4. Smitty x20 Winch is in the SSO slimeline hybrid bumper.

    That David should be @dwaltdtx if i'm not mistaken.

    Not big enough :anonymous:.


    They are 265/70r17 but I wish I had known I was going to lift my truck this soon because 285's would have looked much better. I also installed LR UCA's with the lift. If you have any other questions feel free to ask, just tag or pm me.

    Nonsense. 265/70r17 is perfect. It's a 32.5" tire and that's what I run on Katie's. The benefit is that it's not super wide so you are quieter on highway, less rolling resistance, and the tires don't stick past the fenders.

    A few of us are fans of the flush look, and I'll be putting 265/75r16 on mine, which are essentially the same rolling diameter.

    In person it looks ok but in pics they look small. I'm not changing them out until I wear out the tread in a year. Maybe by then I'll change my mind and stick with the same size but with the way I feel right now its unlikely.
