  1. My truck is cut for 33s, however the stock well is deep backspace. So not mutch room between tire and strut. I can fit 35s with offset wheels but guess no one uses stock chrome steelies with upgraded tires Sent from my SM-G360T1 using Tapatalk
  2. So I've searched threads over a hour and now need to ask. I can't find a max tire size for 15 inch steel wheels. I've found all the offset info, but not the stock? I'm giving my path one last trip to the woods before it's sold and don't want to mount tires all day "testing" thanks guys. Sent from my SM-G360T1 using Tapatalk
  3. These things are like unicorns! ! Sent from my SM-G360T1 using Tapatalk
  4. Check out the rear driveshaft. Carrier bearing makes a he'll of a vibration Sent from my SM-G360T1 using Tapatalk
  5. I posted my pipe bumper for sale. It's made from 120 wall DOM and has a winch mount. I built it myself.
  6. One yard i hit had a row of 19 r 50s. Not a single tire carrier Sent from my LGMS395 using Tapatalk
  7. I use a wide bed roll in mine. Fits great and im 6'2" no problem. Sent from my LGMS395 using Tapatalk
  8. What model r50s had the spare swing out? Ive scoured the pick and pulls with no luck. Id lije a oem but may have to build one...thanks guys. Sent from my LGMS395 using Tapatalk
  9. Im just north of austin. Sent from my LGMS395 using Tapatalk
  10. The factory turn plugs fit on the marker lamps. However...it will blink fast using the small peanut bulbs. Or you can fit the sockets into the corner lamps. Cost is free and works great Sent from my LGMS395 using Tapatalk
  11. Im less than two hrs away. Going to try and see them this week. Id be happy to help someone buy one if needed. Sent from my LGMS395 using Tapatalk
  12. Id think a factory tire winch would be easy to attach up there. And keep it quite safe. But im all about ratchet straps. Cheap too. Sent from my LGMS395 using Tapatalk
  13. Ive diped two cars with great results. Im deciding on this or to use tinted liner on the whole truck. I get lots of brush burn wheeling and hate bad looking paint! Awesome job btw. Sent from my LGMS395 using Tapatalk
  14. Awesome info. I cant type well enough for this. Only thing i would add is that if its primary use is off road and you plan on deeper gears in the transfer case, say 3.7:1 then the axle gears will only affect the 2high when its at the 1:1 final drive ratio. Other wise this will get the truck back to close to factory ratios. The 2:1 t case is where the r50 suffer the most if you ask me. Too much speed for slow crawling.

  15. If i stayed on 33s i wold do the 4.63 swap and be happy. But since i want 35s and possibly (gasp) 37s someday, im building with future in mind. Sent from my LGMS395 using Tapatalk
  16. Hows your on road? Notice a lag past say 65 mph trying to pass someone? Sent from my LGMS395 using Tapatalk
  17. Mines the 43 set. I considered doing the 46 swap but figured its a mute point on 35s. However! It would be ok if i do tge d300 doubler. Wish someone had a 10 doubler cuz i got like 4 of those on hand. My only highway driving is to trails and work. No hills=no problem. Sent from my LGMS395 using Tapatalk
  18. So without a swap 4.63? Is the highest option. Ive much considered not going solid and keeping the ifs (just cuz the 60k dollar jeeps i wheel with) and gearing was my main concern. Im gonna take some measurments tomorrow on the lift. Needs aligned again anyway. My local pick and pull had tons of newer frontiers and nissans. Tge diff would cost me 89 bucks. Anyone have info how to read gears on these? Sent from my LGMS395 using Tapatalk
  19. Thats a great point. R50s are not nor ever will be the chepest trucks to build. But thats what makes em so cool. If one could put together a "kit" under a grand it would be. A killer upgrade for these. I was figuring it would cost double that, but my nissan knowledge is zero other than my own pathy ive had for a few months. I thought i read someone had made gears in the 5.12 range. Any truth in that? Sent from my LGMS395 using Tapatalk
  20. I huess what i was trying to convey was if the labor and cost were similar, your getting gears and still have an IFS front. Its no secret how much better a solid is off road. Make more sense now? Its football sunday. I may be a little drunk.. Sent from my LGMS395 using Tapatalk
  21. Mines taken some direct hits. Its done well. Ill add some metal to it soon but for normal ppl its great. I beat my truck like a 2 bit @$! Though!! Sent from my LGMS395 using Tapatalk
  22. Wish mine needed just that! Those rad hose tools will be in your hand often. Great for all kinds of stuff. Sent from my LGMS395 using Tapatalk
  23. I have tge guys at discount just reset mine for free. Im too lazy to figure this one out Sent from my LGMS395 using Tapatalk
  24. D44 swap may be just as much work as a different nissan housing swap. Depends on shaft length mounts ect. Following... Sent from my LGMS395 using Tapatalk
  25. Plasti dip or flat paint? Sent from my LGMS395 using Tapatalk
