Not to sound snarky, but you can figure this out yourself. Use this calculator (http://www.rimsntires.com/specspro.jsp) to understand the dimension changes (from your current wheel and tire combo to the new one [where you can "play" with the offset number]), and take some measurements of your truck.

I got a few DD214s over the years. Not sure if that means I'm doing it right or wrong. :)

Here's a comparison tool for wheels and tires. Enter the stock/what you're starting with on the left, and play with the numbers on the right (entering in whatever new combination you are considering), and it will spit out measurements (new wheel/tire will be closer to/further away from anything...

I don't know if it's a "thing" anymore. I haven't worked at a dealership in 19 years. In extreme cases, our dealership would do that.

My first thought when I read this was to ask the dealership to yank one of the (in your opinion) good boxes out of the new vehicle and install it into your vehicle. If I were the dealership (setting aside any corporate, etc. red tape to do this), this would be THE way to get you to go away. :)

Good grief! Didn't even notice "SEARCH GARAGES". :facepalm: Thank you.

I may be overlooking it, but I don't see how to filter the garages by these new categories. I went to the Filters menu first, then looked around the rest of the main Garage page. Seems I need some help. :)

I used to run with MJC and was an early member... but that ended for me about 14 years ago. I took a peek at the forum (surprised it's still around), and there's not much activity at all. The guy I knew as the club president hasn't logged into the forum since 2013... so maybe someone else...

Probably a topic for a new thread, so not to derail this one, or a topic for you to research on your own. TONS of videos and articles out there.

:LOL: :clap: Good one! Long ago, I lived in MD and would come up to PA to wheel. Definitely remember the drama of tire coverage, as they were getting the out of state folks, too. LR E is definitely a stiffer tire, but I've found if you run a little lower pressure then it isn't so bad. But...

I thought it would be a useful Garage feature to have tire size (and maybe lift, too) as a filter within the Garage. That way, folks who want to see pictures of Gladiators on 37s could filter the Garage to show only those photos/garages. This would require those populating their Garage to do a...

This was the first thing I thought of when I read about the Mojave! Add the swaybar and front locker... and if the transfer case gearing isn't low enough for the wheeling I do, then throw in a Rubicon case too. I suspect it's easier to do this than to take a Rubicon and swap in the stronger...

I like the wheel and tire comparison tool at this page: http://www.rimsntires.com/specspro.jsp Put in what's stock on the left and the new pair on the right, and it'll give you feedback on clearance, etc.

Entered... and another vote for a power adder, like a supercharger. Love having that on my Tacoma when at altitude on the highway.

Too funny.... YT calculated (presumably) from my viewing practices that I needed to see one of your videos. :) Thanks for sharing your adventures!

Some shocks can be mounted with the can up or down, and some cannot. Just need to understand the technology within for the reason why.

Normal snatch blocks work fine. What you have to worry about is if you have a used snatch block... look for any burring or surface imperfections on the wheel where the rope rides. If there are none, use it confidently with a synthetic rope. If there are some, smooth them or change the wheel out...

I updated my post, as I managed to fat finger a key or two and posted before I was ready. :) Agreed that this applies to lots of activities outside of offroading. I like to hike, fish, photograph, and combine all these with offroading. I'm not going to limit myself to doing these things only...
