Nope trail use only. Oh and fawk off too, shit aint bustin:thefinger: What I build I wheel, hard. And I would not have done anything the way I had if I thought it would fail me on the trail getting used and abused!


Tires are 38x20R16.1 NHS Goodyear Terra Tires.

I dont think that guy knows you todd.............lol.

For those of you that dont know.........They dont call him Hard core for nothin.......
 
Does the 2.9 have any trouble turing those tires? Nice truck BTW, I like it.
 
With the 3.73 gears it does have trouble, my doubler t-case helps a lot.

With the current gear ratio my combined crawl is 85.33 to 1. Single low is 34.41, very undesirable for the tires I am running.


After my 5.38 gear swap final crawl will be 123.08, and 49.63 single low much more desirable. The gear swap will be competed as soon as I can, as its needed very much.
 
With 3.73 gears I bet it does lol
Be easy on your 26 spline t-case outputs running those tires & gears, all that gear reduction ahead of everything could snap one if you bounce it hard enough.

Looks cool :icon_thumby: For some reason though I thought the tires would look a little bigger diameter that that.

One thing I have to comment on though: 3/8" thick plate welded to a stock shackle seems a bit overkill, no? Guess you won't need to worry about the part you welded onto it breaking :thefinger:

Ya I had a lot of 3/8” plate so it was there.

The Rear spring mounts and front shackles are from a F-350 flat bed dually. So the 3/8” to a dually shackle isn’t that bad, lol.
