For sale is a set of five OE wheels and tires from a Bronco Badlands. Wheels are 17x8 +55mm offset. These fit on my Ranger with a 2" Fox leveling kit with only very minor rubbing on the framerail at full steering lock. Tires have less than 5000 miles on them. I bought them brand new off a guy...
I dropped down from 285/70/17's back to 265/70/17's. Truck looked much better with the bigger tires, but honestly the driveability was compromised far too much. Truck feels like a rocket now, transmission seems snappier and more responsive. I don't wheel it enough to need to added clearance. The...
I have a set of Badlands 33's on mine, also with the Fox 2.0 kit. They mostly fit. Little rubbing on the inner fender/framerail. Looks like they should have come with these from the factory.
The only reason this has become an option is due to the pandemic/supply chain crisis, not Tesla or any of the other direct sales manufacturers. The main issue here is going to be the financial drag this will place on FoMoCo, as they will have to eat the inventory expense, not the dealers. That...
The axle nut is torque-to-yield, so it needs to be replaced even if you have a torque wrench capable of 221 ft-lbs. Similar with the nut that attaches the UCA to the spindle- it's one time use due to the nylock insert. If you are too cheap to replace, please ensure you're using Loctite. Just...
Just mounted a set of 285/70/17 KO2's on bronco badlands (+55 offset) wheels. Clears the spindle fine, minor rub at full lock when the suspension is articulating. I have the Fox 2.0 kit. Going to try to adjust the crash bars first, if that doesn't work I'll go with an aftermarket set. Shame that...
Ok, I'm interested. Unfortunately, I'm nowhere near you, but I have a coworker that is. Let me see if I can convince him to come pick these up from you....I'll keep you posted!
I'll echo the other posts that urge you think through your intended usage, rather than going by what works for others. For example, my main need for the RTT is for sleeping at trailheads here in WA so I can get an early start on a climb. I ran a softopper with an air mattress in the bed for...
I've got C rated 265/70/17 BFG AT's on my rig here in WA, and they've been excellent. I read some negative comments about wet stopping distance with this tire- I haven't noticed any difference vs the stock tires. They work like a champ in the snow, haven't had to use chains since I got them. Got...
Get in writing from the dealer that they'll be footing the bill. The dealer likely has a sublet shop they use for collision repair; or they have a shop onsite- regardless, request to bring it to a collision shop of your choice. Make the dealer provide you a loaner (this will ensure it gets done...
Are you doing a lot of towing or carrying a lot of weight in the bed? That combined with the janky rear dampers these trucks come with is a guarantee for weird tire wear issues.
Change your mindset- you're interviewing this company as well. Qualifications are what they are, you wouldn't have been called in if you weren't qualified- what both parties are establishing here is fit. Let your guard down, stay relaxed, and have a conversation.
EV technology is basically still in it's infancy; a better comparison would be an EV vs an old carbureted V8 truck or something more primitive. I think you'd see a closer competition in terms of overall range.
