PlumCrazy's Build

kris97ranger · Jan 28, 2015

Not to mention most guys on the street dont want 11" of the tire hanging out of the fender like mine do. Cops dont seem to think its as cool as we do... this is a 12.50" km2 on 16x10s 3.5" backspacing stocks 4" (im aware i can get them way further in if i wanted to but these came off my old super duty)

Also fwiw i wheel with 3 different trucks a explorer and two rangers all on half tons with 302s and none had issues.

The explorer recently did tons because he was bored and builds trucks for a living so its a business card on wheels

The way I wheel....Lord knows what will give. Ever since I started trailering.. It's been downhill fast.

Um, yeah. Plum is crazy to watch him wheel. He just points and gives her hell. Lol

Sounds like Plum needs his portal axles and 33s lol. Heres the Ranger with full width 1 ton diffs I was talking about. Not sure what it would look like without the extra fenders. It has 39.5x13.5 Iroks on 17" rims. I can measure the b/s tomorrow.
You said that youd like to build a lighter rig. How so? With the same diff/tire combo you have now or is that the plan for the mog diffs?

Having trouble with attachments.

kris97ranger · Jan 29, 2015

Those are about as far as mine id say 85" sidewall to sidewall. And theres no way in hell those fenders would still be attached after the trails around here lol

Not to mention looks ugly as **** imo

PlumCrazy · Jan 29, 2015

Way too wide for the trails I run. Im not sure switching from 10" to 12" rims will even be okay yet.lol. I shimmy between trees as it is.....I watched Brad struggle with those FW birthing hips too much.lok

Lol Id place money that those fenders will out live the rest of his Ranger. They came off of a rig that was designed specifically for tight trails, washouts and trenches. That body is now beat to shit but the fenders are fine

Theyre not just attached to the body, theyre anchored to the frame and braced a whole bunch. They look alot better then Krazy carpets wafer screwed in there imo anyway. To each his own, maybe some people prefer the krazy carpet look lol.

Hence why i went with 0 offset and 12.5 wide tires for my turn to beat on brads axles lol. Hopefully i dont have too much trouble around here with them.

PlumCrazy · Jan 29, 2015

His old rims were 4" BS....so 2" offset.
