A local guy has a set of 42" TSL's for 15" rims for sale...

With a "powerlock" in the front and a pussy foot...how well do you 42's would hold up...

I know that they would look fucking P I M P on my rig...This would take serious money out of the tow rig fund though...

Definitely would look better and provide the footprint and clearance tech bullshit stuff that the 36's don't...

Thoughts...

See, it's a double edge sword. With 42's you're going to need the tow rig to get it home!!:laughing: :laughing:

HOS, even though I think the bigger meats would look :grinpimp: and give you a lot more clearance, I think you'd cause a fair amount of problems. I think you'd habe to bring out the sawzall too:smokin: Plus, who wants to pussyfoot the whole trail ride:p But what do I know, I only run 33's and never have time to wheel:rolleyes: :flipoff2:

Edit: just realized you had a 60 rear now. My opinion has changed. Bring out the sawzall :smokin:

My SRW dodge 60F is for sale. Buy that and you wont need a tow rig, just a good supply of D20 rear outputs.:D

IMO, I would hold off on the tires. that is a hell of a lot of tire to ask spicer 44 parts to hold up to. Even if you ran full superiors and welded in CTM's, its only a matter of time with that torque monster of yours. Ask Berne, he was in your shoes 3 years ago. Nobody wants to pussy foot anything on the trail, trust me.

I wish they would make 42" SX's for a 16.5" wheel.

Ditto what Mech said. A 42" SX would be awesome.

I say go for it. Don't look back, don't think.

Anything over 40" tartar sauce on a burrito.

Anything over 40" jelly fish on a moon pie.

Anything over 40" hairspray on a lawn mower.

Anything over 40" cat food on a toothpick.

Get it?

Of course that is just my opinion because I stopped at 40". If I go bigger my opinion is subject to change.

baby gravy

Thin and brown...pretty much like Mech's description...but it is pretty fucking good and addicting.

The tires are a wet dream...I can buy those or for some additional scratch get a trailer.

The wise man would buy the trailer because it will last a lot longer than the tires and serve a life time purpose. Then I could get the tires...

It is just that I have this air nibbler that is salivating to get on some sheet metal...:laughing:
