Looks good! Thx for sharing. WHat size rims are those? 15X_?

brentcole5 · 10-02-2007, 03:32 PM

their 15x8, i got the tires which are bfg mud terrains 33x12.50 for 100 bucks with about 90% tread from a buddy and bought the rims new, their just cheapie rock crawlers, i didnt even plan on putting them on until i got my straight axle in (in the process of aquiring all the parts) but somebody apperently thought all four of my tires was a good place to put their knife so here it is.

4JOGGER · 10-02-2007, 03:38 PM

So no rubbing at all when the front wheels are fully turned during driving on pavements and bumpy roads?

That person who slashed your tires probably was a comedian...from Las Vegas.

ozziesironmanoffroad · 10-02-2007, 05:16 PM

actually it happened while i was still in san diego.... so yeah.... havent had my tires cut since ive been in vegas.. surprising, i know

brentcole5 · 10-02-2007, 05:59 PM

i had to beat down the pinch weld behind the tire but after i did that it only barely rubs if the front is maxed out on flex

BigWavePaul · 10-03-2007, 12:53 PM

I have wondered if my 2" lift shackles would help my saggy butt, your truck looks nice with them. Was it hard to replace your old shackles? Were the old ones tough to get out? The bushing requires that you take the leaves off and put them in a press to get them out or did you choose to burn them out? How did you do your shackle job?

If you're running no lift on 33x12.5's you may wanna trim like Brian894x4.com did to his 3rd gen, see

brentcole5 · 10-03-2007, 10:57 PM

putting the shackles on took all of about a half an hour and and that the bushings just slid out fairly easy, i should have replaced them with new one but i just gobbed some grease on em and called it done, can't beat it for $35

brentcole5 · 10-03-2007, 10:58 PM

and thanks for the advise on the trimming!

91Yota4x4 · 10-04-2007, 06:17 AM

hey i got 33 12.50 on my 91 stock and i barley rub on the front plastic on a slow sharp turn

bruzryoda · 10-04-2007, 06:36 AM

iam in the process of looking at a set of 33 12.50s for my 81 4bi and was alittle worried bout rub and or to much tire for the birfs? this guy is selling 4 with 80% tread for 3 bills (BFG- mud terrians). i will b installing a 3inch spring lift, very soon. but i dont think i can pass on the tires and throw them on now. hopefully he will haggle.. any helpful info. would b appreceated??

no you shouldn't have, trust me, it's a hell of a job. if they're not cracked and rotten just leave them alone - thank me later

brentcole5 · 10-04-2007, 07:27 AM

i would say yes if they come with some rims but if not negotiate for like $250, he cant say no with cash in his face. And as for the birfs and rubbing, i honestly wouldnt hesitate to put em on, unless you have a spool up front or its welded but like i said thats my opinion. Or like you said you could wait and get your lift on, that would be fine too!

brentcole5 · 10-04-2007, 07:28 AM

LOL, ill take your word for it!

bruzryoda · 10-04-2007, 03:03 PM
