No. He wants a "true" 37. Ha. Either way. A real 37 will measure small when the weight of the truck is on it. A real 37 will measure 37 unloaded or measured 9 to 3 o'clock. the OP is making up his own new definition. I also want a true 37. but I want you all to measure from the top of...

I'm not wrong. The size of the tire is the size of the tire without it being deflected by the weight of the vehicle. If you want something that measures 37" deflected. Then I'd suggest looking at 39s. Because they will end up at about 37" with weight on them.

Top of the tire to the ground isn't how you measure a tire. You go side to side because other wise your measurement takes into account deflection from the weight of truck.

That's what I was thinking, but now that I can see yours, the hinges for the back look different.

That's the quandary. Body mount typically has a shorter lever arm. Frame mount mounts to the frame.

I had done some research and found that I could get a decent used 35 on Craigslist for less than I could sell my new 33 spare for. Then I lucked into that Walmart tire deal for some off brand 35s for like $70 each. So I bought 5. Then I sold 4 of them locally for a $100/tire profit and kept...

You're kidding, right?

I've thought that something that just gives you a place to put your foot on the edge of the existing rail is all we need. Something along the lines of this. https://www.greatlakesskipper.com/carver-boat-grab-handle-7103753-10-3-4-inch-stainless-steel

Maybe ask yourself if you really need 4? Maybe just get the 2 front. My kids get into the back seat. They are teenage gymnasts. they jump right up. No big deal. If my dad rides with me, I've got one of these stowed behind the rear seat. It works FANTASTIC. And it's $10 for the occasional...

You are about 20 years behind the curve. A friend has a Ram with a low pressure injected (pre low sulphur diesel fuel) engine and it will pretty much run on anything. He's used home heating oil, soybean oil, canola oil. All kinds of stuff. it just burns it. Modern diesels are not the...

Because as turbocharged engines, the tune will keep boost high and ignition advanced until it detects knock. Then it will pull boost and timing until it can add it back in without knock. In short, when you run regular, you get less boost or (and?) ignition advance than when you run premium.

My Mojave is exactly as slow as any other Gladiator. Ha.

I'll let all the rich guys on 3 year leases test them out for the first few years. Ha. My friend who has an order for one, has the income to shake off a big repair bill without it even causing him any second thoughts. He will probably keep his for years, but won't put many miles on it. It...

My wife's car is 95% as quick on regular as it is on premium. And at a price difference of $20 per tank, I'll run it on regular. It's very much not "limp mode". It's still wonderfully torquey and quick. Back when the difference was 30 cents/gal, I ran premium. But now with the delta in the...

I should have said. Most. But also. ALL turbo engines should be able to run on regular. Because their compression ratio is low and boost can be reduced to zero if necessary.

It's absolutely nothing like a grand wagoner. It's reasonably sized, not a hoary behoemeth like the Grand Wagoner. Its somewhere between the Gladiator and Wrangler in size. Body on frame Solid axle. Box frame The real deal. 100% BMW engineered drivetrain, so you get the wonky shifter. I've...

The 3.6 is tuned to run on regular. If it was tuned to run on premium, it might make a bit more power and actually get a bit better fuel efficiency , but that is the trade off. Higher octane (which is a measure of resistance to detonation) allows a higher combustion ratio and more ignition...

I do the same thing. Swap panels back on in the winter. I leave the side rails attached to the top itself. So me and my wife can put it on in about 5 minutes. Place it in place and zip up 6 fasteners with an electric ratchet and its on. It IS considerably louder at highway speeds. I tend...

If you can afford a $50k truck then you can afford it. Most people just dont' want to do it. There are other dealers who work like Gupton, that have been mentioned on this forum. The result is that just about anywhere in the country, you can get home in one long day. Sure. If you are a...

If its above the door sills you are screwed. Outside stuff is better able to manage. Change all the fluids, except maybe brake fluid, and the mechanical stuff should be ok.
