2001 Ranger i need some opinions guys

[mwood1985]

ok ive got a 2001 4x4 ranger DD currently im running some 34 10.50 16 tsls i have a set of black cragers that are 15s i want to switch to the swampers are awesome offroad but of course not so good for commuting. i also am gonna add a body lift and gears. my question is whats ya'll opinions on what tire size i should run 33s or 35s the truck is stock other that a torsion crank

 

[ssj123]

if you are keeping it a DD then id go with 33s

tires

i dont want it to be too tall with small looking tires a nice proportion i guess is what im looking for

33's. If you max your t-bars and throw on a body lift you can fit 35's but you'll be a street queen then.

as seen by the picture this aint no street queen lol im just too cheap right now to spring for the RCD lift i want

That's why I said 33's.

Stick with 33s. With 35s you're likely to start breaking parts pretty quickly if you do any serious off roading.

33s hommie, unless you throw some different gears, she will be working pretty damb hard to get those 35 rollin and the diff and tranny will overheat and you will start replacing things that shouldn't need to be replaced!

yeah i figured that out the transmission got rebuilt in july. thats why im trashing the 34's i wheeled too hard and killed the bands and pumps in the original so 33/s it is ill post pics when i get it finished

What is a street queen?

A truck that never sees dirt.

This is a prime example of a street queen:

That is for sale at the "lemon lot" on Fort Bragg. I have no idea how much lift it has, but it's sitting on 40" Iroks.

my 2 cents if you buy it with 4x4 Ford designed it to leave the pavement. so what if we frankenstien it into a short bed Rangexplorbronc2 mutant creation? damn it Mr. Henry would be proud that we all refused to buy a Chevy...
