Couldn't resist! Had to get some new tires. I was tired of seeing one baldy on my used set. Decided to go with 32 11.50 15 Cooper STTs. They fit really nice up under the stock 4wd height plus no more radius arm rubbing. I love them!

I sure will. Ill be checking air weekly as well as cross rotating and balancing them myself. I've got off-set wheels, so ill be un-mounting them every 5,000 until I get tired of doing that and get a nice set of rims. I'm pretty sure the truck needs an alignment so that'll be done soon after some steering components are fixed.

Yeah lemme know how they run on the truck after awhile. I'm needing some new tires and my usual douglas tires i can't get in 31-1050-15. And I can't find a new set of Liberators anywhere.

Absolutely. They'll probably end up having more around town mileage and offroad mileage than anything.

Pulley ate a hole in my upper radiator hose. Had to use one for a '92 because parts store within walking distance didn't have one for an '87. I like the '92 one better anyways, better shape. And my thermostat is stuck closed, fourth to stick, second fail safe one to stick. I'm seriously considering deleting it.

It shouldn't hurt anything having no thermostat should it?
