    whats the widest tire i can fit?

    Just re-reading some of my threads and i never answered you! lol sorry, i installed both lifts but i would have to say the body lift was slightly more labor intensive. Only because i love doing suspension work maybe.....but i didnt go for the superlift shaft, it just seemed grossly overpriced...

    4406 front output shaft end play

    Yea at about 25-45 it sounds like a 4.0 sohc that is about to wing the cam tensioners out of it lol....the only way to change the front seal would be to split the case too,mines not leaking but a snap ring on the inside holds the front output in..I cant remember what kept the end play correct...

    4406 front output shaft end play

    Well recently ive been having a driveline vibration, but until today no noise. Well it turned into a ping noise when below 60 and goes away only when on the gas in 4x4. The front output shaft has a considerable amount of in and out play...just wanted to throw it up on here to see if anyones had...

    Hunter Grill Guard Installed - 98 XLT

    i have the same one on my mounty since 2007, and it still looks good today, even despite hitting a deer at 45 mph. my only tip would be to take care of the bolts, which like to rust.... saved my whole front end im sure of it, you can even see where his antler hit the top of the right headlight...

    AC blows on floor when on "face" setting

    there is going to be some air to everywhere all the time the mode doors have foam sticky taped to them so it can only seal so well. As trucks get older the foam can come off and then alot of air can get by all the time.... if it isnt alot of air (when i mean alot i mean like feet feels the same...

    whats the widest tire i can fit?

    turning is normal no rub lock to lock... i did have to trim more than i had already with just the 33s and a body lift. so yes if you are putting these on a freshly lifted truck that has no trimming, you'll need to do some fairly extensive trimming to fit em, mainly because they are 14.50 wide...

    whats the widest tire i can fit?

    Yea, the tires will be more weight, but it will be more over the hub vs the whole wheel and tire outside it with insane leverage... I went through 2 sets of hubs in 6 months with the spacers on the 8'' s, after switching to the 10'' I haven't replaced a single one

    whats the widest tire i can fit?

    No doubt the tires will go on the 10s, and if you read up I talk about how the spacers killed my hubs, but in case they wont fit the spacers will get me home from the shop....it will defiantly be cl ose.....

    whats the widest tire i can fit?

    yea and let me tell you, when i ran a 15x8 4 in bs rim and a 1.5'' wheel spacer i had 4 catastrophic hub failures months apart! since moving to a 10'' rim no problems...im just weary because of the side lugs on the grapplers and nowhere does it specify the actual "tread width". because say the...
