here's a picture of the wheels I just finished painting this week that are going on but I'm unsure on the tire size? Either 32x11.50 or 31x10.50?

That is a sharp looking truck, like what I am seeing. What are your plans for it? I am doing an 86 currently and finished an 88 a while back. Really think you will enjoy this truck.

cool, keep us posted and remember pictures, pictures.

Tire size will be based on what you are using he truck for and how high you want to go.

best of luck.........

Nice find! It wouldn't take much to fit 32's on your runner. You can do a "zuke mod" on the rear to help out the sagging springs & either crank your tortion bars a little in the front or get some ball joint spacers... or you could go the other route and do a body lift. Good luck with your build!

Ya we picked it up for 1200 and I don't really want to do anything to the suspension so I think I'm gonna go with the 31inch km2s then

I forgot to mention when I bought it the transfer case was stuck in 2wheel drive but looked at it finally after a year and found this and just pushed the thing forward and lined them up and I had 4wheel drive I had to go test it out in the snow and it works great. Now just waiting on tires. Either gonna be the bfg km2 bfg all terrains or the cooper discovery stt mt
