  1. Yeah, I was reading about them being bad for airing down or even highway driving :S I think im going to pass them up afterall if the guy in line ahead of me would MAKE A DECISION!!! saves me 50 bucks in gas though bummer Thanks guys/gals
  2. 1) Is it important that I stick with the 15" diameter? I'm assuming going to 16" would simply give me less space to fit tires in my wheel well...and without a big lift that space is at a premium for my rig. -If you want to use the same tires, you need to stick to the same rim DIAMETER....when it comes to tires and wheels being compatible, its not the size of the tires, its the width of the tires vs the width of the rim, and the diameter of the rim MUST equal the rim size of the tires 2) Can I go up to 8" or 10" width without many issues, besides the expected rubbing, stress on steering components, etc? (I believe the stock Lego and chrome rims are 6" wide, correct my if I'm wrong). I would think 8 would be fine, but i think on a 10.5" tire that 10 may be a little too wide 3) When I go through different websites "wheels applications" programs to figure which wheels will fit my truck, the AR-767s never pop up as being applicable. Is this because of backspace or offset issues? Should I pay any attention to these "wheel applications" program's suggestions for rims? Im not too sure on this one, but the ARE-7675783 seem like they should fit if thats what your looking for
  3. the redundancy of this topic is appalling! LOL
  4. Yeah, that was the issue that i was concerned with too..... idk, assuming the guy 1st in line doesn't take em...it really can't hurt to pick em up :\
  5. lol, i really hope the deal goes through I guess ill find out when i get there, i took the ruler out there today and i think i can fit one in the passenger, atleast one in the trunk, and one or two in the back...... kinda pumped to try it also getting a 10 dollar 4' cb antenna on the way back up from the tire guy :D
  6. lol, these are a 'preemptive' action....free 33's with over 50% tread?! i mean, that cuts like 1000 bucks off my costs These will be sitting in my basement until i can 1) convince my ma and 2) buy the lift components No rims on these, and i was kinda wondering about the 16.5 rim size...its kinda odd and im worried i won't be able to get the correct size rims for cheap :S This may sound stupid, but will 16.5's fit on 17s?
  7. I dunno, lol Im getting them from some guy south of me, not discount tire I think i can fit two in the back seats, and atleast one in the trunk.... I really didn't think about it when I inquired about em :S
  8. I searched but i couldn't find anything!!!! I SWEAR! So I may be getting free 33x12.5x16.5" tires but i gotta drive 3 hour round trip to get them if the deal goes through.... which my pathfinder won't be used for So anyone with 33" tires know/think that a set of 4 will fit in the back of my 98 malibu? Im willing to use the trunk, back seats, and passenger seat, so yeah...LOL
  9. Just a thought, cause when I taught my nephew to drive he thought that the t-case shifter was usually in Neutral(so he was trying to push it forward to engage), so if your new to a pathy, make sure your pushing it the right way 2Hi- Starts here, this is for daily driving 4hi- Pull back to get here, this will engage all 4 wheels, and you can go past 30mph N- This will disengage it all, and you need to push down vertically on the handle, then pull it one click to get here 4lo- This should only be used for extreme conditions, NEVER on dry pavement. Again depress the handle, and pull all the way back HOPEFULLY you were mistaken although I highly doubt it...but hey, if it can save you $$$ its worth mentioning
  10. What can i say..i just cant stay away!!
  11. i got the same issue as you, but mine pulls left.... Id check the wear/tear on your brakes, cause apparently the ones on mine are in need of replacement, which is what we assumed caused it
  12. from what i heard, thats exactly all it is good for, cause the way they attach it will not support any sort of load for use as a stinger or grillguard if you do it take pics it looks kinda interesting
  13. Well its been a while since it was a daily driver, and we don't drive it much since...but id say less than 14, and not too great on highway either I also thought it may be a richness issue, it idles rather high and I could smell it around the tailpipe, but im not to sure (i was outside when looking for it, so the smell could be from anywhere on the truck) Ill try the stuff you guys suggested this weekend
  14. So under moderate acceleration and revving the engine, i can smell gasoline inside and outside of the pathy Where should I look for issues?
  15. Thanks for all your input and help guys! Yes, even you beavis! Im hopefully going to buy these as soon as i get paid, and so will start the collection of parts! Theres another guy who will probably end up selling me his calmini coils (hes not sure if he wants to part out his truck) and then all i need is a panhard bracket!
  16. Big help, thanks! I had read about it earlier, but i wasn't completely sure UCA's here i come!
  17. i think your thinking of the 3" body lift?
  18. The 3" superlift hardbody UCA's fit our trucks right? No mods or anything needed? Im hopefully going to be getting a pair for CHEAP
  19. now that you have the dash out you should replace it with sheet metal! I rode in an old jeep one time that was amazing offroad, and had a flat metal dash....it looked GREAT and you would be one of the first if NOT the first
  20. Or if your looking for a decent deal, go buy the D21 hardbody lift kit, it has the rough country UCA's that you need, and comes with shocks that will fit your truck, and you just don't use the rest of the kit! Its about 340 bucks, and the lowest I COULD ever find a set of 4 shocks was 40 each, making the UCA's under 200 bucks
  21. and try not to hit belts.....(i heard they can be damaged by the WD)
