Stand by, I'm working out a few kinks.

I had a great weekend driving a couple of steel soldiers. The super singles were just plain fun!

nice! I think the best way is to have them hosted, every week it seems like a new free photo hoster pops up, so one of them should work

would love to see the fullsize ones, great looking truck!

Monster Man · Jan 25, 2005

NICE!, yup that worked

so, are those 14.00x20's? I always though they physically would not fit without spacing the axles out?

M1075 · Jan 25, 2005

Forgot to mention these are Michelin XML 395/85R20 tires on custom double beadlock rims with run flat inserts. I'm pretty sure the 1400s would be too big. I have the 1400s on the 5ton and that is right tire for that application. The 395s tires are 14ply, stand 46" tall and are a perfect fit for the deuce. The only concern I had was possible rubbing on a hydraulic ram we mounted outstide the frame on the front left for power steering. No problems so far. I'll try to keep you updated.

How close are you to your exhaust pipe at the back of the fender? If you clear with those wheels, I should clear with the ones I get on and my same size XL's as I'll have about 2" more backspacing which will reduce the amount of swing as the tire turns.

LOOKING GOOD MAN!!! I do like how your backspacking puts the tires at the edge of the bed. Great look!

Tom-

I have added a few more pics. Hopefully, these can answer your questions. Now that the pics work, this is sooooooo easy to post pictures. Fantastic! I expect to see a lot more pictures from everyone.

That second one is exactly the pic I was looking for! Thanks. Could you PM me on how you posted those. The way I had been posting pics isn't working anymore. Grrrr.

Looks like a working deuce to me!
How close are the rear tires? Doesn't appear to be enough space for chains.
Like those tires, but need my chains a lot... snow mud, you name it. Never leave home without them.

Bjorn-

I haven't measured the spacing between the rear tires, but I think it is 4 or 5". I think some of the pics looked closer because of the angle and mud on the tires. See if this one helps you see it better. If anyone gets tired of me posting pics, just shoot me. It is so easy now that steelsoldiers got it going!

Thanks, the spacing with my 11.00-20 tires is almost exactly 5 inches, so you should be good for chains too, if you needed them.

M1075,
I'd love to see that truck once we make it down to Houston. I've got a bunch of other questions too, btu for once we're there.
