      The maintenance on a Diesel is different. On my 7.3 I have very little maintenance. I change the oil/filters @ 5k, Lucas fuel additive and a sensor here and there (easy to replace usually). Really not bad. My gas trucks take far more “Engine” maintenance.

      Tell me about it! Got the same spec wheel with 37s on my leveled Ex and the rub on the leaf springs is getting old. Going to do 05+ axels with carli 4.5 components/ possibly 38 or 40s. OBS guys do that axel swap too, tightens turning radius a ton If you also swap the steering gearbox but you would have to go to 8x170 wheels unfortunately.

      @aguyonmatchcom 4 года назад

      CenCoast_7.3 I go wheeling just about every weekend so it makes sense for me. I personally like the biggest tire possible on the most minimal amount of lift, since it doesn’t matter if you have a 12 inch lift if it’s getting hung up on the differentials haha. I’ll be regearing to 4.30s to keep it close to factory shift points/power/minimal amount of strain on the drive train. Plus like Andrew was getting at, big meaty tires on small wheels will always be cool!

    Totally agree with the look of these current super wide wheels and tires. There's a lot of down-sides to running super-wide tires beside the looks. -Diminished load capacity, increased stress on the axles, hubs, bearings, increased road noise, decreased mileage, decreased traction on snow and ice, drain on power. That's a lot of down-sides.

    I had a set of polished wheels. I really liked the look of them until I had to polish them, which I had to do regularly to keep them looking good. And, mine were smooth.
    Your new wheels look really good. I think they were a good choice. However, all of that great looking detail will prove to be a booger to polish.
    I bought an '04 Corvette many years ago. It had gorgeous polished wheels on it. This was years after my first set of polished wheels. The polished wheels on my Corvette, however, were powder clear coated. No muss, no fuss. Were always beautiful and all I did was wax them a couple of times a year.
    In my opinion, I think you ought to consider having them powder clear coated now while they're new.

    • @JustDiesels

    I'm a chevy guy but if I had to own a Ford it would be only this exact set up but get rid of the mommas boy mall crawler spacer in the rear cause here's why. I don't care what offroad mall crawler kink shop says the spacer is safe or a OK option. Two it's gonna mess up the chassie design on how this truck Tracks at full payload and or full tow capacity. I've had many one tone configs and anytime I did the alter from original r & d I either had a death wobble, a crackle think tink noise under load what ends up being chat or slop from worn spacers mis clocking the alignment of my rear end with Eton posi or g80's. A true pulling rig need super stiff hard compound skinnys with stock tracking to safely control you're 16-18,000lb load with quad sensor plus inertia saftey electronic brakes on trailers. Sway control on the actual toy hauler may be better or worse I can't honestly say because I'm fihgting passed my away from 67-76mph to always hit my goal of towing at 78mph lol so obviously that's a built one ton pulling only 8,000lbs but that's still a deadly combo so AL cobtrol a must. Looks epic though dude but at least back down to 1.25" spacers u will be stoked and bit safer
