britklr...that looks great. Stock suspension or lifted?

It has a 3 inch BDS Ironman lift. I got the lift for a great price and it's serving me well, but with all the equipment I carry when I'm camping I'll end up with a OME Heavy some day.

Take care.
 
Running BFG 33x10.5x15's. Sorry about the bike, only picts I had available at the moment from a good angle to show the skinny's.

She's looking great. My seller's remorse is greater than ever now. :frown:

Whenever you're ready to move up to an 80 series on 35's just let me know and I'll drive out east to swap with ya. :D

Hi Rob,

Big Blue is doing well. Trade for an 80 with 35's?? Hmmmm.....No I dig Big Blue with a vengence (besides you're pulling my leg aren't ya?).:) You have me wondering though, when the time comes to replace the rubber, do you think there would be any issues going to skinny 35's with Blue's current set up? I'm not set on it, just wondering.

It is riding on HFS springs (3" i believe)

I think I'm pulling your leg. Although not quite sure. :lol:


You have 3.73 gears in there so I would not go to 35's unless you plan to re-gear.
 
I get very little rubbing at full flex if I'm fully loaded. It's just a little squeaking in the rear fender wells. I think there is some contact in the front at full stuff/full turn, but there's nothing audible. The tires and body don't show any signs of damage from contact. My springs are pretty flat too. I don't know why more people aren't running these on unlifted wagons. I suppose the gearing would be an issue, but my tranny takes care of that.
