Scott .. I can post pictures of your truck on my site .. www.knobbyman.com .. just e-mail them to me.

Bill GOOD LUCK!

Truckin-Suspension does NOT send you all the parts you need for your truck I would HIGHLY recomend getting a shop to install that. Unless you have knowlage about how to install a suspension lift and modify one.

Sure looks nice. Have you really tested it offroad. I'd be really worried about that lift and also the stock Dakota parts. The front diff on these things can't take too much.

Finally some more pics of a Truckin' lift. Let us know how she handles off road and if everything seems to be holding up. I really would like to hear some positive feedback from this company if they have infact changed their ways. I'm not convinced yet.

sadly the only off-road this truck sees is a dirt drive.but it is daily driven about 40 miles a day this truck has to stay clean it's kind of a rolling billboard for our shop.the lift though has been redesighned and mine was one of the first and from talking to other t-s owners it is alot better than the first production kit.10k on the ticker and still no problems.

Anyone interested in buying four BRAND NEW Goodyear Wrangler MTR's? They are size 285.75 R16 (equivalent to a 33x11.50) and have not been used at all.

(if you want) The tires also come with four brand new 16x8 factory wheels from Dodge. These rims are in flawless condition as well.

I am selling this package because I have to trade my Dakota in for a car, and I don't really plan on fitting 33 inch tires on it. So take advantage of this deal because I intend to sell them at a bargain price. If you are interested please email me with questions/comments and I would be more than happy to reply. More pictures are available as well.

Just a question for a tire person... Whats the nearest equilivent for a 33x10.50x15 tire? I am going to do some trimming on my 1990 2wd lifted 5 in. I think I can run a 33x10.50. Not a 12.50 tho. Thanks alot.

Joe,

You are a smart man! Especially if you are gonna off road. Not sure what you mean what is the closest equivalent to a 33x10.5x15. Do you have 16" rims you are trying to size up some tires on?
I am running a 255x85x16 for the street. It is a little bigger than a 33 but a litle narrower. Not as much tire to tear up your front suspension parts but you are limited to a small selection of tires. I think the next closest is a 285x75x16 but it is smaller than a 33 but wider, about 11.25".

other than that if you are putting tires on 15" rims you are stuck with the 31, 32 or 33" tires.

Never late for a Tee time or wheelin with my buddies! Always ready for both!!!

I've been riding 32 11.5 R15s from Discount tire for a month now on my 2000 QC 4x4. No trimming no rubbing fits great. Yes, I have taken it off road and no problem except for the extra mud up on the side. They are from 110-150 dollars each total cost mount, balance, protection package.

The 32x11.5x15 will not be a problem, do think it ever was.

Yes you can get a size 33x10.5x15. I have some BFG MT KM in that size and you can find a few tires in that size.

No 32x10.5 though. You would have to go with a 16" rim and go 285x75x16 to get close to that but would be wider than 10.5, like 11.2.

Yeah I was refering to the metric equilivent to a 33x10.50. But since Im on summer break, Im not doing any math right now. When fall starts, I start to think again but until then, nah, no thought. But thanks for the help.
I have a 1990 2wd with a 3in body lift and a RC 2in coil spacer front and a add a leaf rear. With a bit of trimming, I run 31x10.50s. Pittiful I know. But these GenI fenders are soooo tight at the bottom. So I am going to get my tools out and do some more trimming. Not really on the outside of the body but more on the inner side of the fender well. Only at full lock will a 33x10.50 be rubbing. So I want to take care of that and get some 33x10.50 BFG Ats or MTs, not sure yet.
Thanks for the help... Later guys.
Joe E.
