Just Ordered Some Tires

[Devious_Tahoe96]

Lol i don't trust myself to do something like that. Im pretty sure i'd screw something up in the process. But i do need an alignment cuz the dam hoe keeps pulling to the right. I guess i could try to do the crank this weekend. The cragar bs is 4.5" so i know im gunna rub in the front. I think there needs to be a write up on a t-bar crank lol

It's really as easy as hotrod stated:

1) soak bolts with PB blaster a day before
2) Measure the fender height for a base line
3) block rear tires and jack the front of the truck up
4)turn the bolts 4 times lets say, set the truck back down
5) measure again, adjust for more height or to level side to side as needed.
6) get alignment to be safe.

My bad hotrod lol i know you've been waiting like over a month to see what my tahoe looks like with some beefy tires.

ok so this is what the tahoe used to look like about a month ago. Plain ol' tahoe stock...very sad and boring


After a MONTH of tire shopping for something that im gunna be able to use on the sand, mud, and snow in the winter....i decided to go with the BFGoodrich M/T tire. When i saw them at first, i knew they wouldn't fit because they were sooooo wide!! and then the back spacing from the cragars was 4.5". But this is what the Tahoe looks like now.


I hadn't washed the truck in over a month either so bare with the pictures lol




Laaate night car wash lol









Now it looks alot more aggressive with those tires and the 1" t-bar crank. So all said and done.......time to go **** shit up lol

HAHA! I'm glad you finally got your wheels and tires on man. They look badass. How are you liking them so far?

 

[Devious_Tahoe96]

They handle awesome out on the dunes!! Got stuck once cuz i tried rescuing a jeep and dug myself in on top of the highest sand dune lol did a lil crawling and they grip really good. Overall for the first time using them in different terrain they held up to my expectations. I'll post up some of the pics my wife and i took today.

To fit 33's all you did was get rims with different backspacing and a t-bar crank??
