It's about time! Sort of.

Well after ordering them and getting them almost 2 weeks ago my DuraTrac's are finally on the truck. Had them shipped from TireRack to Sears (they were the cheapest to mount and balance) and Sears couldn't mount them. 4 guys working on them and even with a Cheetah tank they couldn't get the beads to seat.

I took the time to order a HBS level kit and went to another shop a friend recommended to me. They couldn't get the suspension apart so I just had them test fit the tire without it (LT275/65R20 34's). They cleared (not by much, less than an pinky width when flexed and turned to lock) so I had them mounted up and the battle is half over. Now i need to take the truck to a proper 4x4 shop and get the HBS spacers in and going to install blocks in the back too.

Here's the crappy pics I could get now. Better ones coming tomorrow if I get a chance.

looks good!

I'm happy with them. Was shocked they are not really noticeably rougher even though they are E rated. I'm running them at 45 psi for now. Seems to be what a lot of people around here are running in them for even wear and a decent ride.

Looks great! I'm running the same setup. I have mine at 47, and they seem to run really well there. Notice any difference in mpg?

Nice!

No mpg yet. Just drive it home from the shop about 25 miles from the shop. Just fine on the hwy. Feels much slower off the line.

Here's a better pic in the light.

I'm quite curious as to the change in MPG too if you do find a change, I'm considering a set for my truck when I get back to the states.

Looks good!!

So it's been about a month...and I'm curious myself. OP, did you experience a sharp drop in MPG's or what?

Also? Truck looks great!
