I figured this would be a good thread to see what kind of clearance with what tires yall are getting under your diffs.
Please post:
axle type
tire type and size
rim size

Ill start with my pro comp MT 35's mounted on 15x10 rims and a 10b front and a 14b that is shaved to the bottom bolt hole.
In the front I have 10 1/2"
In the rear I have 10"

Currently I have 205/60R16's on 16x7 stock steel wheels on a 14 bolt FF, about 3" of clearance max, not shaved.
 
hmmm, interesting.looks like the average is only a 1" difference between a 10b to a shaved 14b. i thought it would be more than that. ill check my clearances in the morning
 
Ya, but the 14bf pumpkin is way wider then a 10 bolt pumpkin. That is a big part of the hanging up on the 14bff issue beside the lower ground clearence.

its dark ill post em tommorrow... ah what the hell give me five minutes.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm... I think i just found a D60!!!

went to measure the back 10b and got 10" then went to the front and got about 9 inches. 16x35x12.50 bigo M/T big foots

one question... is the clearence of a d44 and a 10b the same? If it is i just found a d60 up front.

It's usually 1.5" of difference between a 10 bolt and a 14 bolt. You figure it has to be at least 1" different because the ring gear is 2" bigger.
 
not sure how much this is, those are 40's on one ton axles on 15.6 x 9.75
about 25 psi
