Those are good tires, a buddy of mine runs them on his nissan.

However, thats alot more than I wanted to spend per tire. When I can get the Bighorns for 560 shipped, those are almost 220 a tire.

80% of SIRA runs them...including Phil and Drew...all though Drew as some bigger boys on the way.

I'm gonna order A/Ts. And down the road once the Bighorns are available again, I'll get a set of them with steel wheels. Hopefully by that time, I'll have my stock wheels sold and that'll cover them.

Maybe I'll go with the 305/70/17s nick.

I rode this today, fast as he double toothpick but all in all

had more fun watching them build it!

Those tires do look good

what back spacing would I need on a 16" and keep the 1.25 spacers? I like Blaines wheels but still up in the air on the MTs

I just want to swap wheels at the off road area??

Thats what I'm gonna do. When the bighorns are available again I'm gonna order a set and get some spare steel wheels...

I just put my Bighorns on the Dodge today, I just couldn't stand to see them sitting over there in the corner not getting used. Wanna know what's really sad...they fit on my stock 2wd ram 1500 with NO lift at all

I spent most of the day body filling damage to the passenger side door and sanding, still have more work to do to it, but I did manage to finish painting the front and rear bumpers and the lower cladding on the passengers side. All I know at the end of the day is I hate body filler, especially the kind with fiberglass in it, but it sure beats paying the $1000 I was quoted to fix it

Damn, I am getting some sick A*S DW at speeds above 55. I was driving home on the highway tonight at about 65 - 70 and drove off a little ledge where they had stopped paving the new highway and DW came swiftly thereafter. This is BS, I thought my DW problem would have been gone with the LAs.

At least when I had my 3'' lift on I only got DW between 40 and 50. Thats not half as scary as getting it at 55 and above.

Are you guys gettin any DW? If so, was there anything to do if you fixed it?

Granted, I have not done the 100 mile tighten up as suggested by IRO, but I also haven't driven 100 miles yet.

I just ordered my A/Ts BTW.

I have a total DW solution for you, but I can't give it to you now since your going with AT's, if you had waited for bighorns I would have solved all your problems...remember you've done this to yourself

Sweet you can do my rear driverside door & fender now !

@Orvisman
What caster do you have now with that pinion angle? I think the better pinion angle is the worse caster you gets. And how exactly do you use this bolt at upper mounting bracket to adjust pinion/caster? Also I see a nut at the frame end of the longarm - it is to block the longarm after its length allignment, isnt'it? I can't see this nut at IRO pictures so I guess you have their latest version of the kit.

nierace · 05-25-2007, 08:59 AM

Orvis and I ordered custom LA's from IRO that are fully adjustable. The standard ones are not adjustable at the LCA.

What bushings haven't you changed yet..?

And yes.. you should have gone with Bighorns...
You can definitely see more mud than me..lol
BTW, pm back to you.

JayIV · 05-25-2007, 09:46 AM

All the bushings except the drivers side UCA are brand new w/ the IRO LA kit.

I think I might go with a second set of wheels/tires when the bighorns are available again. Then I could also go with a 305/70/17...
