You’re almost certainly going to need to regear to go to 37s. The 10sp can do a lot but at the end of the day it’s going to be really slow and stress your transmission. I say within a few months regear kits will be available. The bronco will be regearable and the parts will be available through Ford performance. I think there are some gears that will fit from other trucks now but the install kits haven’t been available yet from Ford or the aftermarket.
Yup, It will bog like a Mother ....
Surely S mode only ..
Balance will be a problem..
Camber is off ...

If he runs brand wheels and brand tires balance wont be an issue when done through a good shop. Not a indy tire shop.
And as for camber there will be 0 issues

any tire shop worth it's weight can do a balance that takes the heavy spot in the wheel and the heavy spot in the tire and aligns them so they balance out. It takes time and effort, but I have done it on several occasions. It's an option on the balancer. But... you have to mount the tire, balance it, break the beads, rotate, reseat, rebalance (as many times as it takes to balance out nicely).

I would like to see if anyone with the Bajakits LT kit has fit 37's.
That's not an everyday truck anymore. Weekend fun is what thats built for.

Hey Doc,

I don't think the white ranger on 37's was aligned at the time of the photo. I'm also waiting for 1000 miles on my coilovers to get the final alignment.

What was your issue when you went down this road?

I think the truck and wheels look great, I’ve had a lot of off road experience, lived in the Everglades for 35 years. no matter what size of oversized tires you put on Above 35’s balance will last 6 months at the most..once they get outa Whack …it’s less than that ..
Regards

Ahh I see, well technology has come a long way, lol just kidding.

Yea it seems 35's are like the ideal biggest setup for budget and to save some headaches and 37's require a bigger budget and patience.

33's look great without fiberglass. Fiberglass makes tires look small lol.

Same wheels and tires, but with fiberglass.

My rear adapters brought the wheels out which helps a lot with the look I'll take pictures tomorrow. You can also see on post #7 but I'll take pics from the side tomorrow to show the current side look.
How much did all the fiberglass body panels cost + paint?

I paid 2k for fiberglass on sale and 2k for paint years ago I'm sure without the deals and price increases it's like 5k-5.5k now.

Completely off topic but what is the outlet diameter of that single exhaust tip you have coming out the back? I'm guessing 3 or 3.5 but cant tell. Thank you.

33s with flares is a good balance for 2.3 everyday driver...wide body and 37s? I think the motor needs to be something like a 5.0 V8 to backup the looks...
