I rather like the 4-link you are looking at. Not for me, but looks like it should work good.

I had this very same issue when adding long tube headers on my mustang. If you want anything near stock volume, I recommend you reinstall the stocker. It would be a shame to remove the downpipe, but just like headers on a V8, the exhaust noise is going to increase significantly. Your only...

No, I meant to say that the Rock Jock front swaybar will not match to the OEM rear. The OEM front and rear are matched.

I added the OEM rear swaybar to my 22 BB and I can say it does help for road duty. I agree that the RJ front will nat be a good match with the OEM rear. The RJ is softer than the OEM front and won't match up with the OEM rear. I can't confirm that, but that is my understanding. For the road...

I plan on doing the very easy trails for a while just to feel it out. I just want a bit of puncture protection, so I think I will go the middle ground and get the LR-C. Thanks for the input.

So for a starter set of trail tires with a good amount of sidewall protection, I should go with the E and call it a day?

Has anyone ever compared 2 tires of exactly the same specs with exception that one is LRC and the other is LRE? How does the contact patch compare when aired down to the same psi, lets say 15psi?

From the replies that you guys have given me, I can see that things are not so simple. I will just have to see how my current tires work and go from there. That is the advice I have already seen given to rookies like me and it finally sank in. Thanks for all the replies.

I have a BB 2 dr. 2.7 w/4..27 locker. I'm looking at building a second wheelset just for off roading, as well as long road miles to and from the trails. I'm considering the Nitto Trail Grapplers 285/70-17 (33") and Falken AT4W 285/75-17 (34"). Both choices would be LR-C. I will be sticking...

If you're looking at different wheels, you might consider moving to 17's where the tire selection is much much better.

If you are staying with 16's, 235/85-16 is as close as you're going to get IMO.

Just take a BFH (big f*** hammer) and give it a smack. It takes quite a big smack to release it, but it will go. You need a decent size hammer like a 5 lb. sledge.

Thanks for the reply. I think I will stick with a 255 for width. Right now, I am just thinking ahead.

Do the 285/75-17s clear before the lift or only after? That size may be another option for me.

20's look cool for the road, but for anything else, I prefer the 17's with all the tire choices.

Thanks for clarifying the crash bars and I agree that they fill up the wheel well nicely as far as looks go.

I will always agree that a dedicated tire for the task is best. I am old and not so interested in handling tire changes too much, especially with these big heavy mf's. Actually this would be my second set, but I don't want completely dedicated, but leaning more toward offroad. At least that...

You make an interesting point. I will have to explore that idea also. Thanks!

Good to know there is another choice for the size. Thanks!

I'm very sure you guys are correct and thanks for the great info. Until I'm in a position to do some good wheeling, I won't go down the rabbit hole just yet. Before I add anything, I will give it a go with my 31's and see how it goes. I'm sure I won't be doing anything too rough anyway. I...
