I'm runnin' 5's. It's flexy as hell. Real soft. Need 8 inch wheels though, if I turn to sharp on these I rub the leaf. I'm literally about to go and test it out with the 36s. I'll be back in a couple of hours with some shots and info. Wish me luck haha!

any body lift? and are they all pro springs? thanks again dude. the rig looks killer. is the front axle 55" wide, or do you run the widening kit/spacers? i'm running the sky kit when i do mine, so hopefully i wont have a spring-rubbing problem...

Good lookin runner. Those Swampers look so much better than those wimpy Pro Comps. Makes the rig look a lot meaner.

There is a 1 inch body lift that came with the runner when I got it. Yes, 5inch all pro springs front and rear. The front axle is a 84 Toyota Pickup front axle so whatever measurements that has. The longfields in it work great. I have spacers in the front for sure.


Thanks guys for your compliments. I'll be back in Charlotte on Monday. After I get my shock remounted I'm planning to shoot a small video of the runner just rolling over some hills and stuff to give you a taste of the suspension...haha.

Yes yes, love the howling.


Jason

Did you measure them? How big are they really? They don't seem to make many 35's which I have a hard on for, but do make alot of 36's.

Is this 36 closer to a 37?

Well I hear that tires are measured to the bottom of the tread. So its like 36 inch tire then the inch of tread or whatever. I could be wrong.

So like a 34" swamper would be anyone elses 35" tire? I can't get bigger tires because it won't fit in the Garage then.

So I gotta stay with 35's which is fine.
