• BFGoodrich KO2 285/70R17 Tires

Here are some before pics. This is with stock FX4 suspension, 18" factory wheels and Nitto Terra Grappler 265/65r18


Fully geared up with 400+ lbs in the bed

Here are the After pics.

A slightly different angle

Rear with no weight in the bed. It is a much smoother ride with some weight back there. Without the weight the ASS sticks way up in the air like a dog wagging it's tail.

What is the wheel and tire set up?

Icon Six Speed 17 x 8.5
BFGoodrich KO2 285/70R17 32.8“

I originally had Stock 18" wheels with Nitto Terra Grapplers. Essentially a 31.5“ tire

I see myself investing in those sliders. Love the build.

These sliders are very easy to install. My 12 year old daughter helped me lift them into place. 3 mounting points and 6 bolts per side. Took about an hour.

No! I wish that they did though. I got them on sale so it's not so bad.
