    Indeed there are some beautiful places up here. Most of where i go is new territory, not a lot of set offroading trails and what not. Just kinda make your own up here. But it is cool. ill try and post a pic or two of some scenery from up here

    Max,
    What do you think about this:
    A 35x12.5x17 mounted on a steel crawler wheel with 3.5 BS?
    :cool:

    3.5" BS on a 9" Wheel?

    I have a feeling that it would rub in some odd places. I'd still shoot for the normal 4"-4.5" BS :cool:

    Yes, the answer is still valid cause I'm a Max too:p

    Thanks northern Max!

    I've got 295's on a 16x9wheel with 4.5 BS now. That is a 33.5" tire. Going up to a 315 would actually be a 34.6" tire... As I sit right now I rub the passenger frame at full lock - drivers side no rub at all...
    I'm thinking of switching to a 17" wheel to go with a true 35" tire... at this point I also think going with 1" less BS would solve the frame rub.
    :notsure:

    Interesting. I'd think a 4" B.S should suffice. Is it only under up travel or at right height? It's one of those things that's hard to judge. Can't hurt to go wider but I have a feeling that it'll just move the rubbing to a different point:notsure:

    It's at ride height... happens pulling out of my driveway sometimes...
    I'm posting this in Max's build because I know y'all have messed around with this issue yourselves.:eek:
    Soon I'll have a 5lug and the 4x4 will become my toy. regear and lockers are in the works as well as a 1" BL. I truly feel with the clearance work I've done already I can make the aforementioned combo work.
    I just want to bounce it off you guys because I value your experience & opinions.:D

    Interesting, and it's rubbing on the frame?

    Pulling out the drive way sounds more like a firewall rub (Depends on you . Do you know what your alignment specs are, as you can attempt to "max" out Castor in order to get the wheel further away from the frame (if it's only rubbing slightly). Me and Max are both running 4" BS, 3.5" definitely won't hurt but I can't be certain if it'll fix the issues.

    Not a big fan of the BL but it works for some obviously. I await what you have planned :cool:
