Newbie with a couple Q's

[380tom]

Newbie checking in. Here are a few pic's of my Burb.
89 3/4 ton 4x4 350/400TH/4:11's 37" Goodyear Wranglers

Unfortunatly for me this thing is just too big. I'm looking to go with a 2" lift and 285/75/16's
Anybody here have pic's of that setup? TIA

But it's beautiful! Don't even need a 2" lift to run 285s. They fit stock anyway. In other words, it would look really boring compared to how it is now.

I know, I know, I like the way it looks too but I need this to be a tow rig primarily and with the bigger tires it is really doggy and with it a little lower to the ground it will handle better while towing. I have a smokin deal on 4 NEW BFG All-terrains 285\75 r16 and Ultra black/chrome custom wheels for dirt cheap. I figure a little bit of lift will look better than stock and I'm good to go. Just need someone to trade me a 2" lift for a 4" lift.

Stock springs and 285/75 16s. 3000 rpm at 65mph.
I plan to add 2 inch lift in the future.

Thanks 1leg!
What gears do you have? 3000rpm at 65mph seems pretty high.
I am also thinking of running a 2" lift (ez-ride) hope the tires don't look dinky with the 2" lift though?
Funny I looked at your album. That oil filter looks just like mine when I first changed the oil. Took me about an hour just to get it off

I'll buy the tires and rims from you. I'm not far if the price is right and the tires are good. M/T or A/T?

 

[380tom]

Not sure if they're MT or AT I can check tomorrow. I do know they are Goodyear Wrangler 37x12.50x16.5 (actual measurement is 36" tall) They have some decent tread left but are not new by any means. Very even wear pattern on them as well. I'd let them go for $300.00 for all four with rims and a 35" BFG ALL-Terrain with matching rim as a spare if you're interested?

4:11 gears and a TH400. I avg around 10-12 mpg on road trips. I have grown to like the slow pace (55mph), taking back counrty 2 lane roads lets me see more country. The added plus is the safety.

Couple pic's of the rims and tires. Wrangler MT. Time and date is wrong on camera have about 100 miles on them since these pic's

Nice clean rig, man and x2 on what you said here. 55-60 is fine for me with the same tranns/ gear ratio as you. I don't think these trucks are ment to go much faster.
