That is one helluva great looking rig! I get a chubby just looking at it! (Get it? A chubby. From Fat Hero?) :rofl:

Seriously though, that looks awesome.
 
Looks great Mark!!! Good job on selection. What is your clearance between UCA and tire? Are you running spacers in the front?
 
Safe trip home. Can you tell us what you did to fit 35's

Yes. I promise to go in to much greater detail when I get home…. I'll be on the road through Tuesday night and hopefully post a lot more info and photos on Wednesday.

Edit: I actually typed this response while driving a long, boring, empty stretch of highway in Utah….

Shhh don't tell!

Ha! I was about to say, "Drive safe". Guess that idea has already been thrown out the window. ;-)

Oh believe me… I've texted and typed in much much worse scenarios…. It's just that right now there are random cows and horses on the highway, and although I just got a super hefty bull bar… I would just as soon not destroy it on my first trip!

Nitto Ridge Grapplers in 35x12.50x17 Load E... PSI? :hillbilly:

Pretty please with a big shoe on top?
 
Mark, I know you're on a long road trip so when you stop and take your next pp break, please know that your rig looks amazing and I am very, very jealous. You are seriously making my wallet lighter and lighter each time I look at your pics. Safe travels my friend and congrats on the build.

30psi sounds way too low to me for highway use. @Markuson after experimenting a bit, I run my Ridge Grapplers at 38psi on the road and 19-22psi off road which has been the winning combo for me.

30 PSI isn't a lot, for sure. What size are your Ridge Grapplers?

The 35x12.50R17LT tires have a recommended Cold Tire Inflation Pressure of 33psi F/R for a Load Limit of 2305 LBs (4610 LBs/Axle). This is good for everything up to the stock GVWR of the vehicle.

HTH

Wow. That seems low after 42psi on my KO2s...but there's a reason I call you the PSI Ninja! :poof:

Thanks!
