I'm about to pick up a new project truck. It's a 89 F350 with a Cummins and a 5 speed Getrag swapped in. I'm buying a Getrag with a Ford 205 bolted on it with an Advance Adapters adapter between them. I've got a ball-joint Dana 60 from a 1996 F350 SRW that I plan on using for a front axle. I'm going to use 77-79 F150 4x4 radius rods and mounts along with weld on Axle C's from James Duff to put it all together. I'll just buy 1/2 ton big block coil springs or cut some lift springs down to the desired height.
Anyways. I want to run wide singles in the front and duals in the rear. I would like to run 255/85/16's in the rear and a 305/70/16 in the front, I really wanted to use a 295/75/16 but you can't get matching tires in 255/85 from any company. I have thought about just running 16's on the rear and a set of 17's on the front to get matching tires of the same height...
What has everyone else done?
