    Ordered 35's , now second guessing myself

    Just wanted to dredge this up- I LOVE THESE TIRES! They are smooth and soak up the wash board and bumps like it's not even there. I took it out into the field coyote hunting and they scratched and clawed through 12"+ snow (24"+ in a few spots) without hesitation. These buggers are heavy (like...

    I have been thinking of getting another PC for this one. Had one in my '15 just to help with the 6 speed quirks. I've never really felt the need now with the 8 speed, but who knows- that may change now.

    That would be 36 pairs of tiny sunglasses... I don't think I can afford it

    Excuse her, she's a mess from the drive home, but Fat Betty got new slippers! Fills it out much nicer. I found the setting on the Tazer to be pretty arbitrary. Tape measure said 33.75", but had to set the Tazer at 34.5" to get the speedometer correct. Not a big deal, just some tinkering and...

    Installed today, no rub at full lock at all. Used the Tazer (still need to fine tune it a wee bit as it's about 1km/hr off) but over all really happy. If I believe the lie-o-meter my mileage didn't change much on the highway if at all. The weight of them sure makes itself evident getting up to...

    Ordered 35's , now second guessing myself

    Yeah, I spend a lot of time in the dirt. I am just hoping the damn things don't rub anywhere. Some say 35s are no issue, others say they will. Not sure how my OCD will react to that one because I am not about to change wheels

    Bouncing on certain interstates with stock tires

    She may hate it but I am willing to bet you take that freeway as often as you can!

    I sure think about it too, but it is what it is. It sucks, and likely will continue to suck- and get worse- so I may as well enjoy it.

    Ordered 35's , now second guessing myself

    Loud I can deal with- that doesn't bug me too much since I am as deaf as a stone anyways. I was looking for a tire that is stout as hell. The roads I drive daily might as well be gravel- they are so torn up. They look like the surface of the moon. If the Duratracs would hold up more than a year...

    Love the hardware on that back of that trailer. My trailer is enclosed, and it has the 86"(?) roof and pulls like an apartment building!

    Ordered 35's , now second guessing myself

    Nope, fuel economy doesn't really even hit my radar. If it did, I wouldn't have it, nor would I be considering going to a larger A/T tire. It's a work/play truck. It's always loaded, or always pulling, usually out in the fields off the road, going through snow, mud, whatever happens to get in...

    :Big Laugh: that's pretty much what I needed to hear. I have a nasty habit of second guessing myself when I do dumb crap like this! I REALLY overthink things.

    Ordered 35's , now second guessing myself

    About a week ago I pulled the trigger on some Nitto Exo Grapplers, 35x12.5x17 as a treat to myself for my 2020 PW. I have been wanting to go up to 35s since I bought it, and I just decided to say to heck with it and ordered them before I changed my mind again (usually the $$ bring me back down...

    Best alternative to ProCal Snap?

    I liked some of the live options on the Tazer as well. Have you played much with those?

    Best alternative to ProCal Snap?

    According to them they can only adjust for OEM sizes with their software. That's it, which I assume to be common amongst most dealers from what I have read.

    They can't adjust to a 35" tire unfortunately.

    Best alternative to ProCal Snap?

    I am going to pull the trigger on some 35x12.5 for the wagon and have not been able to locate a vendor that has a ProCal snap available (2020 MY). Gone through some posts- found the Ram Tazer, and a couple of mentions for one from rough country to adjust the tire size. Any suggestions? I'm from...

    How Many Miles on you 6.4 Hemi??????

    87 in mine all the time. I get my fuel in bulk at the farm, so it's always coop or petrocan. Can't say I see much of a difference. Sent from my VOG-L04 using Tapatalk

    Tire choices- staying stock size

    Ressurecting this thread. Punched a 2"x3/4" perfectly dagger shaped rock through the lug of the Duratrac yesterday. I have it patched and plugged for now, but I know the size and location of that hole meant the tire was on it's deathbed. So, contrary to what I said earlier, I actually ordered...

    Ram 2500 junk?

    No, they're not junk by any means. Forgetting the heater core, I am curious as to what life was like on that 6 speed in the 24k before you got it? Just a thought. Well, truthfully, what was life like for the 24k on the whole truck? My 2015 was a really great truck. Sent from my VOG-L04 using...

    Grille Inserts

    Has anyone installed grille inserts on their 19/20 PW? Looking for some to keep the bug guts out and there really isn't much out there I can find. I usually use cloud rider, but they have nothing. Dealer told me they don't know of anything because the PW apparently has a weird grille? Sent from...

    Change your rear diff oil if you haven't yet and clean those lockers!

    Planned on doing both diffs next week and cleaning the magnets, but now I am confused. I am reading here that the power wagons have a helical LS which doesn't require friction additives, but the manual says I do need them. So which is it? Did the 2020 PW go to a clutch style limited slip? I...

    4th gen vs 5th gen differences

    Interesting and a bit off topic (on my part). I was just about to schedule my power wagon in for a shuddering when I turn when I read this. Didn't know they went to a clutch style LS. Found this in the manual: "Limited-Slip Differentials DO REQUIRE limited slip oil additive (friction...

    Oil pressure

    Ok that's what I thought. Just wanted to make sure my thoughts were correct. Any engine swap I have ever done gets all new hoses, lines, piping and coolers everywhere, regardless. That said, my last swap was the stroker into my 89 GMC, so that was a while ago lol! Sent from my VOG-L04 using...
