Yea I hear ya and hopefully you could get a set off here or the Craigslist, but most folks that have them understand that having a set will let you run surplus military take offs.
The Goodyear Wrangler MT II's (bias ply) 36x12.50x16.5 and the 37x12.50x16.5 AT tread radials are still the cheapest going.
A few fellow FTE'ers are running them 37's, one on a Bronco and one on a F150 and get along with them pretty good.
I actually am going to run 37x12.50x16.5 Swamper Iroks on this set of wheels I have my fingers crossed for a set of 24 bolt humvee beadlocks that I should have home tuesday next week, but they would require and adapter or recentering to work. I just figured I'd go fishing and see what I caught that already works.

Yea this will be a light rig when its gets done.....some day......
I have to un-screw the PO hack job on the front spring hangers, put a 8" spring lift on, drop a 460 w/c-6 & NP 205 in it. Slap on some 44's, get the tube chassis secured to the frame, move the rear axle and fel tank closer and chop of the back half.
Brakes, wiring and a steering column, rework the rear springs with some 8" lift kit rear springs and give it to the wife so she stays outa my Bronco, lol.
I have a ton of 8 on 6 1/2-10x16.5 rims so I could run those 37's all day and might start her with them?
Hey Huggy, I might have a set of steel (painted black) with slots. I will have to double check the size. They are either 16 or 16.5 not 100% sure. I will let you know this weekend.

There are a few honey holes left for the dents that I hit up but most of the body panels are pretty rusty and are in poor condition...but if you need other parts they are lots of them.

Then there is always a few more in the Ford "parts lot" and all else fails the JY 4 miles from the house.
How are the JY's up in your neck of the woods?
