No more GM HD trucks for me, presenting my new F250...

[Ch3rnobyl]

Is yours a dually? I see its an F350.

The front is end is exactly why I have an '11. I love it. I love everything about this truck. Now I just want some rain so I can get it dirty.

Nope, not a dually. I've only taken mine playing in mud once.. but it took more time cleaning all the damn mud out from under it that I haven't had the urge to do it again haha.

You have 37s with just a leveling kit? Do you have any pics of that?

I plan on getting a 6.4 in the Future - No Rub? Does it need a special wheel? to push the tire a little more out of the Fender?

Yea as Doesspeedturnuon said, they are mounted on my stock 18x9 wheels with no spacers and they do rub considerably at full lock.

That's badass. I'd love to see larger pics. Also, something to consider, a lot of 37's are 13.50" wide where as a 35 is 12.50 wide (unless metric)

I suck at the interwebz lol. I'll get some better ones up in just a few.

[Ch3rnobyl]

As you can see, it rubs pretty good lol.

god, I bet that thing sounds like a crop duster running down the road at 60+mph!

[Ch3rnobyl]

Your telling me.. I use to run around on SS Boggers back in high school on my 01' f250 but damn they don't have anything on these Mud Grapplers. They've got about 10-15k miles left and then I'm switching over to the Toyo Open Country M/Ts. I've heard they have a really smooth ride and they don't make nearly the noise these do.

[Cooter]

they don't come in 37's though

[Andy@PrimeTuning]

Heard anything about the Federals? - They seem to be priced pretty good too. I've only heard one person say they are pretty good for the money, but everyone has a different opinion of "pretty good"

Well looks like Federal makes the Couragia - Whoops


Ch3rnobyl - Your truck looks good man. I plan to get a 6.4 soon and I didnt know it fit 37s so easily. I will probably go with aftermarket wheels though with maybe .5 to 1" less backspacing. That should cut down on the rub.

OP's truck looks good as it sits. Don't lift it, IMO.

[DoesSpeedTurnUon]

What do you guys know about the MiniMaxx Street Tuners?

Oh and here is an update!

**UPDATED PIC** 4/17/13 - Got my Icon Vehicle Dynamics 4.5" Stage 1 lift on. Ride 100x better! Aesthetically complete now.


Squats a little with the Rzr in the bed, but that's an extra 1000lbs.



Silly pic stitched photo...

Looks good Jeff. I wish I could get away with a single cab.

Why do the Ford 3/4-1/2 ton trucks sag so bad in the rear as compared to the GM or Dodge?

I wondered that same thing. I'm half tempted to put a 1" taller block in the rear. It did it with my buddy's 24' enclosed trailer when it was empty pretty bad too.

I do know the rears only have 2 leafs and one over load. That might have something to do with it.

empty ride comfort

they really need bags for heavy loads IMO
