biggest mud tire for st0ck suspension??
hey every1, i just picked up an 04 quadcab 4x4 a couple weeks ago, i was wondering, what is the biggest tire size i can run, with no rubing?... 33's, 35's?....also.. i havnt read much into it, but whats the lug spacing for the rims?..etc... etc...? thanks in advance!
the lug spacing is 4.5....I dont know what the biggest tire you can run is...id like to know, but i dont know if anything would fit much bigger as there is quite a close clearance in the front wheel wells. id like to know if anyone can say how much you can torque on the torsion bars before the ride is really comprimised...thanks!!
With a 1.5" lift I put 285/75/16 mud tires on the stock rims and still had to trim a little off the front bumper to stop them from rubbing. I would not go much bigger without a suspension or body lift.
hey simon, what intake do you have? (part number) ive been after those guys to get an intake set up for the 04s and they say they only have one for the 2wd models?!?!?! did you have to do any trimming to get yours to bolt up? thanks...
I emailed them and they said the '03 version would fit and it did. Very tight fit, but no trimming necessary. I think the engine bay is the same on all 4.7's whether 2wd or 4wd. Not sure why they said it wouldn't fit.
Hey man, you definetly cant go with 33's or 35's on a stock truck. I have a 3 inch body lift and cranked the torsion bars up 1.5", and I still had to trim the mud flaps and front bumper to get clearance for 305 70 R-16's which is the same size as 33 12.50's. Although I have a front bumper cover on my truck, I,m not sure if it would clear the stock bumper or not but it would be close. My tires also scrub the frame at full turn, so I wouldn't go over a 285 or a 32" tire on a stock truck.
