But my truck is my DD, that is my point. If i had another ride, oh hell yea it would be on like donkey kong...

But the same truck has to take me back and forth to work everyday, and to random

schluts ( thanks kris ) houses...
oh and the bar...

Right now, im catchin a ride to work from a friend.
When i need to i borrow hissuburban

 

Well thats interesting.

 

Unfortunately if I want to do any wheeling I got to drive there and to be honest I really dont wheel it much different than if I had a trailer, but when your tires are almost bald and you have 351 with a 2bbl breaking stuff is a little harder to do lol.

 

actually Id say its easier to do with an under powered engine.....

 

kris, i've always felt the same, but it's hard for people to accept it when they hear it, because it is kind of reverse thinking

 

if you are underpowered, instead of your axles still spinning, they repeatedly catch and release traction, thus putting a stress load on the axles that wouldn't be encountered with the power to keep said axle spinning

 

Repeated catch and release doesnt happen a whole lot with my tires lol, otherwise I agree completely.

 

not just catching, also binding from lack of power, but i get what you mean about bald tires. i've ran my fair share of mudders turned drag slicks

 

I'm having a hell of a time finding new tires at the moment. Right now I got a 315/75/16 on the truck which is basically a 35x12.50 and have been looking for something close to that for cheap. All I can find used are mall-terrains and bald bfg mt's.

I do get what yall are talking about with the catching and binding and agree completely, I had that in my old f150.

 

well at least you have 16's, that's a better starting point than 16.5's. i prefer trader papers over flea-bay or crapslist, but to each their own

 

I tried them all lol not many people around here go wheelin and the ones that do hold on to their tires till there aint nothin left.

 

check the net for offroad clubs in you state, their sites almost always have a classified section. you might have to drive a few hours to get to em, but it sure as hell beats the price of new tires if you find the right deal. pirate has a huge classified section that has items from coast to coast. might want to check there too, but watch where you post, they're pretty rough on newbs with dumb or misplaced questions
