First a thanks out to Metal Twister for the invite. My rig is a 91 Full size Bronco running about a 7" lift 1 Ton axles with 4.88s LS in the rear and ARB in the front. made it thru the Rubicon about a month ago too. I'm looking forward to a run in Big bear sometime, so I'll be watching for one, since I haven't been out there since I was a kid. I'm located in Palmdale. I'm also into Halloween and put on a Haunted House every year, so that takes most of my time in Sept and Oct. The rest of the time I'm working on a truck or a mustang. Here is a couple of current pics   |

That looks a whole lot better than the last full size Bronco I saw on a trail, it was being dragged along by a tractor ~clown

Thanks for the wecome everyone sick bronco make me wish i never got rid of mine i used to have those tires on my toyota man do they suck ever so much i hated those things
What didn't you like about them? These made it thru the Rubicon with no problems. The only problem I've had was some chunking. I liked them enough to buy another set of 5. Maybe a heavier truck makes a diferance, but the price is what sold me. |

Maybe a heavier truck makes a diferance, but the price is what sold me. You got it. Truck weight. The tires are tuff and hard compound, yota doesn't have enough weight to make 'em stick and conform. A buddy has some on a burb. Work OK except they dig real bad in the sand. They have been lasting well on the street thou so the compound must be pretty hard. Any trouble with balance? |

Maybe a heavier truck makes a diferance, but the price is what sold me. it wasnt that they were too stiff or anything its the fact that they are a 16.5 in tire and the 16.5 rims have no inner safety bead pretty much made airing down a no go for me i need to drop into the single digits but hey if theyr working for u great |

I'm going to be running the newer H1 tires. The Wrangler MT radial 37s on my dodge. Got some cheap off ebay, and some cheap steel wheels. I got some 3/16" rod and welded it on the wheels for a safety bead. Holds tighter than a regular safety bead. Now I just gotta get them to balance... |
