Wyoming B.S. Thread

Supposed to be back in warehouses starting the 16th.

I was considering the G003 as well.

 

pretty good price for 295/70r17 for the G003.

The Toyo At III i can get in a C load! In 285/75/r17. Pricey though.

nd that would be cutting it pretty close for me and this trip hahaha hmm.

 

An interesting concept. Not sure about that color tho.

I mean it's a thread about the knurling not the color haha but pretty out there color. I'd run it. Haha

 

Why? I like my custom knurling.

On Igor?

 

Haha idk might be an odd combo but could be cool!

For only a few extra big ones, you too can make your faux bead lockers fully functional.

 

Well pulled the trigger on the Kenda's. Were just too cheap to not get. Hopefully work well in the snow. Then maybe I'll get some MT's next summer that are a bit taller, hopefully the 275s

 

Did you get the RTs? What size? I will be interested to see how they perform.

I think going to 35s would be foolish on Igor unless a regear is planned for the same move. Those 4.10s are brutal.

 

Eh idk. Not really ready to jump to 35s I think. Be a bit overkill for this rig anyways likely. a good 34 or rather a true 33 I think would be good though and do able without a regear given the width too.

Yeah the RTs, same thing Ryan just bough ha 33x10.5r17.

And yes Im not about to regear. Although I need to consider it as I really am at the point I want a rear lock. So those 4.56s of Dan's are tempting..

 

4.56s would be better for sure. But you'd still be under geared for 34's. But I can certainly understand the appeal. Would be an easy (relatively) swap, probably less expensive overall and would get you into an 8.4.

 

Well it would be okay with 34s, probably pretty close to what 4.10s and 33s are now and I don't mind that. Plus it would still work with 33s/32 for a second set of tires for the offseason/dd duties.

 

IMO, the only way it would be ok long tern would be if you intend on also doing a trans swap to a manual.

 

I would love to do that.

But not that likely. So idk. ultimately 33s are just fine for what I do with this truck. I just want the locker and probably some full skids and it's good. Ideally I'll have Frank back in the next 18months once the house is done being built. So Igor will really just be about weekend trips or shorter trips Devin comes on with the dog. Frank will be the one for the bigger trips and of course harder trails.

 

This would make Igor very capable for 99% of what we do, and good enough for the rest. The 4.56s start yo make sense if you don't go any bigger than 33's with the auto. Barely! You've heard me say many times that I wish I'd gone 5.29s...not gonna do that now of course. I'll live with what I have.

 

well I also hope to never be as fat as your rig haha Which lets be honestly plays a bit roll in that part of it.

I mean with the 255s, I can still get over 20mpg here and there in Igor with 4.10s so..yeah.

But yes, for most of what I use Igor for, it'd be perfect. Only other major thing is I'd like to do the rear shock kit. I'd like a swing out rear bumper but really I don't need that. I've got the packing setup dialed on Igor and if anything need to pack a bit less so I don't need the space. Still have space. And if I did do the rear bumper thing I think I'd like to try and Aluminum one. And that sounds expensive haha plus I don't know if there is even a good option, I don't think Eric makes stuff in Aluminum and I'd need a lot of practice welding aluminum to try it out and feel confident in it.

 

Igor seems to get around just fine with 4.10 and 33’s. 4.56 would give just a little extra pep in his step, or would be about the same with 34’s.

I think the Redhead needs the extra gearing because of her…weight issue. Don’t tell her I said that.

 

There's also a lump of aluminum that someone flooded with cherry colada instead of a transmission, that's not helping

 

While I'm thinking of it, if you have a chance, put one of those new tires on a scale. I read somewhere that they weigh 65#. I am curious how accurate that is.

Folks who live in glass houses, shouldn't be throwing around stones.

 

Monte, Dan and I all have that issue to deal with.
