    M35A3 tire changing to 395/85/20 part 1

    I have a ramp temporarily, but will install a small 1000# crane in the near future for tire, 55gal fuel drums, etc. If I'm far from home I usually have a friend with me anyways, and most of my friends are capable of helping me lift it up in there if need be, i've had to do it once already when...

    M35A3 tire changing to 395/85/20 part 1

    The one you saw in the pictures was a 14.5 x 20, I had not had the chance to get it changed over yet. I for one wanted a matching full size spare, fully aired up without any mods to the spare tire area since I plan on dual fuel tanks or another larger tool box, so here's what I did.

    M35A3 tire changing to 395/85/20 part 1

    When I still had the stock michelins on my truck, it would do the same thing over rough roads occasionally but only on big bumps. One morning when it was raining I went over some railroad tracks at about 25mph and it kicked the whole rear of the truck out about 4ft:shock: I got it back under...

    None at all between the rears. The only thing I haven't done yet is take it for some serious offroading, so we'll see if I rub under the bed while fully articulated. I don't think the tires are ever going to touch each other, unless you break a dog bone or something.

    Thanks. Once I got a look at all the deuces on 395's, it was game over. I probably could've got many more miles out of my stock tires, but could not seem to stop myself. I thought about going with the Conti MPT-81's, but when these MV/T's came up on GL I had to have them. Best price I could...

    I'm very pleased with the upgrade; I think it drives nicer all the way around:D

    Thank you everyone for all the helpful info in this thread. I just got mine done a Les Schwab this morning, and it looks great. Pictures to come soon.

    All of your A3's look great on 395's:-D Quick question: What tire pressure are you guys running in the MV/T's? Is 35 PSI about right? I just picked up a set today, and I'll have them mounted tomorrow morning:beer:
