37" tires?

Is any one running 37" tires on thier EB? I have a 3 1/2" lift and 2" body lift, I'm running 35"s right now but would like to go to 37". What needs to be done to go to the bigger tire? I would like to run the bigger tire without putting a bigger lift on if it is possible. Dose anyone have any sugestions?

Man i need to get some pictures of my EB on here...

I have 36" TSL's on a 76 EB. I'm sure I could put 37's on. The 37's prob. measure the same as 36 tsl's... I guess your looking at some type of radial...

I'm not sure yet on what type of tire i'm looking to get yet. I will be driveing it on the highways and in town, so probably a radial.

Its holding up ok, I just bought the truck. The body lift has been on it for about 6 years so I was told. The suspension for 2-3 years as I'm told from old owner.

I doubt the guy ever took the truck offroad. He bought it from Colorado. You know, flew out there, looked at it and had it towed back. He spent a ton of money on it and let it run out of oil. "OUCH" But its ok.. Because I bought it cheap......

i got my eb for cheap too. it had been sitting for years. I would pass it everyday on my way to work. I never saw it move. then one day i saw the guy that owned it out looking at it so i stoped to ask what he was doing. He had desided to sell it and was trying to get it ready to move. I offered him $1000 right thier as it was and he said ok. that evening after work i went back to his house with the money and came home with the 1966 Bronco. Needs work, but i'm loveing every min. of it.

Its fun when you know you found "that deal". I was looking on and off for years. A buddy of mine found it for me. Same guy always finds something in his crossings that I've been searching for. I guess thats what friends are for, to help you spend your money. lol
