My X just got another raise

[bobdreadknot]

here is where i was....

and here is where i am now

looks better if you ask me...but then again it is my truck

I went to Discount tire and they looked at the tires, gave me the price quote for putting them on then decided to ask what type of vehicle it was. When i told them it was an explorer they looked shocked and said they cant work on it because putting bigger tires on it will make it roll over. i called him everyname in the book that i could think of since i had to take my senior pictures in about an hour and a half with my truck. so i went down the street to another discount tire and then same thing happend only i parked around the side to where he couldnt see my truck and told them it was an Expedition, what losers!!!!!!!!!!

Watch those speedbumps!!!!

LOOKS good though!

What do you have for lift? Just the 3" BL, TT, and Shackles? Did you trim your fenders at all? Seems like 35's would rub a lot with only that little of a lift.

 

[etc]

Looks like it's rubbing just sitting there.

 

[IAmTodd]

2WD=more TT. But still! Those have to be a tight fit!!

 

[dreamr]

33's are a better size match for your lift! IMO

Though it does look good, just not functional

 

[IAmTodd]

So in the past couple months you've been through 4 sets of tires? Your stock 235s, 31s, 33s, now 35s? Sheesh, Tell me where you got your money tree from!!

 

[swak6287]

looks good, bob. looks good. now, when are the SOA and spindle coming?? yours would look way way taller then mine.

 

[bobdreadknot]

here is what we cut out

and here is my money tree....it grows in my garage

next ill be goin to spindle with a SOA and then 37's

[IAmTodd]

WOW, I wish I could pull a ratchet and batteries out of my inner fenders

 

[bobdreadknot]

But i got a ?, How does it grow in the garage?

also what kidna offroading you do? Just mud? because i tihnk your gunna have soem problems with bout any other type of offroading and the lack of clearance oyu have, but it looks Good........

37s are going to be pushing the 8.8 close to its limits without upgrades, depending on gearing,...............but since I believe this truck is a street queen, it probably won't be a problem. Good luck with it!

Exactally... It sees mostly road or so it seems. Seems like it should get an SOA and spindles, and keep the 35s.... It just looks goofy as is.. too low, with too big of a tire.

 

[bobdreadknot]

yes mud is my only off roading i really do.

 

[Premier]

Shweet!!!
