question about tires
this weekend i plan to get new tires, i currently have 265's on it and would like to go to 285's and money is tight so ill only beable to get them 2 at a time. so my question is will having two different tire sizes on my truck mess up my trans or T-case?

Yeah.. definitely do not use 4x4 with differing tire sizes. Your rear tires will be rotating slower compared to the front axle, assuming you put the big tires on the rear. (Otherwise this is just going to look goofy as hell :P ) This will end up binding up the whole system and possibly snapping stuff making all kinds of headachy and expensive problems.
