    @ovrlndkull is on some killer MT Baja Boss 35s. I think he’s got some JBA UCAs

    I'm on JBAs with 35x12.50s but I'm also running 1.5" spacers with a 17x9 wheel with -12 offset. I could take the spacer off and see if they clear if you want

    Don’t get out of your way man.

    Wondering why you went with a 1.5” spacer?

    Because I need them to clear my rear shocks at full stuff since I'm on a 63 swap 14" 2.5 Kings on AG relocation. And I hate a truck that is different width front and rear

    You dont have to, most run a shim or the carrier bearing drop to get the angles right or fix vibrations. With a tom woods custom one piece drive shaft you wont have to worry about any of that.

    Lmao. He’s running all that on 315’s and still on eibach coils and stock UCA’s? And a business? How is he not on some better suspension and good UCA’s by now?

    The pro truck lift Ive heard is pretty good and budget friendly. Its not on the rebuildable coilover level such as fox and king etc. but you dont need aftermarket uca for it. Eibach is also unveiling there new coilovers which will come out in about 6 weeks if you follow the thread on here. Ive also heard of there new rear shocks with remote resi’s coming out too. Definitely stepping there game up in the light truck suspension game.

    Not the point. He’s got a full on business. How would you not flaunt the BEST shit out there? I would. Especially since he sells kings on his site.

    I agree, if I ran an offroad business my truck would be a rolling commercial

    Awesome to see someone making this tire size finally. At only $200 each as well. Hopefully they come out with a lower load rating though. They call the tire a D but they are listed as 3195lbs which is the same as most E rated tires. Did either of you happen to weight them? Im curious how they stack up to 315s since they are so much narrower. Also have either of you aired them down yet? If so how did they behave?

    I have not weighed them. The once you see them in person they are not a huge difference in width. At 35psi they measure right at 10.5” which is good enough for me

    Ive aired down to roughly 17lbs and its amazing how they don’t even seem aired down. This pic is around 20psi. Hardly any sidewall bulge. I prefer it that way E424D072-5BE2-422C-9368-8F0EE321D9AB.jpg

    Just a thicker sidewall. Our terrain is mostly sharp rocks and I’ve ripped many of sidewalls on my previous Jeeps. I usually ran a swamper type tire.

    You aren’t aired down as much as you think. Shoot for 5-10 and you’ll feel the ride comfort increase as you won’t bounce as much all over the goddamn place.

    And that’s because you really aren’t aired down.

    Ya Swampers have terrible side walls, I've seen them buckle and collapse so many times, never had a desire to run them.

    On my Treps I run them at 20psi for normal driving and 5psi for offroad.
