Where do you get your rims widened?

Nice just wanted to make sure you weren't gonna have lurching issues. I don't ever see staggered setups on 4x4s unless they're running in 2HI.

 

I plan to run in 2hi about 90% of the time, but for when I dont want to spin to 80mph 4wd should come in handy

 

I hope you don't have any problems with the 2 different tire sizes. I had staggared tires on my truck that were off by .5" (265/35r22 front and 285/35r22 rear) and if I put it into 4hi the truck started to shake and vibrate really bad at 20+ mph.

I put 285/35s on the front and it stopped.

The stockers look awesome tho!

 

They should be very close but I am going to measure them before trying to use 4wd, obviously.

 

I learned something a few weeks back that I would have called big time BS if I hadn't heard it first hand.
Long story short:
Guy has a 4wd F-450. Had 4 new drive tires put on the rear. This past winter the 4wd was acting up and in a month or less of driving most on snow in 4wd it destroyed the T-case. He wasn't able to shift into 4wd at any speed at all.

He had the T-case replaced went to the shop who put the tires on and made them put 2 fronts. The T-case shifted normal again and all problems were solved.

Lesson learned: Tires with only a few 32nds of tread worn off were enough differance that this dually truck was un able to drive in 4wd.

 

That's why i rotate mine regularly. That exact reason plus I want them to last as long as possible and I get sideways occasionally

 

Replaced the input on the tcase yesterday, and forgot how much of a bitch that snap ring in the back is. No pump rub on the case either, but I still put in the protector ring thing, and the chain looked fine. I also played with the 4wd mechanism while I had it apart and its pretty neat to see how it actually works and what happens when you pull the lever.

Also got my spacers in and tires mounted up. I probably wouldve been fine with a 1.5" spacer instead of the 2.5", but oh well, works fine.
