    04 with Ford Keys, 285's or 315's?

    I went with 295/75 nitto terra grapplers. They didnt have bfg's in stock and made me an offer I couldnt refuse. I will try to get pics ASAP. BTW using the lift was awesome, we were done in an hour. When I first pulled it off the lift the front was a good 2-3 inches higher than the...

    Correct, but I am sure going to use it. I cant imagine it being easier on the ground, plus I only have a very small floor jack.

    04 with Ford Keys, 285's or 315's?

    I saw those, but on stock rims I dont want to go too wiiiiide. I am basically going for the look of how a 4x4 Tahoe should have came from the factory. Leveled with decent AT tires. I am pretty sure I am going to run the 285's. I am having a hard time spending the money on bigger tires to get...

    Do they make that in the BFG AT? The sites I looked at went from 285/70 to 305/65. I am sticking with the BFG AT's, i know for a fact they last.

    04 with Ford Keys, 285's or 315's?

    Thats my issue, I know I will wish I had gone bigger. I am worried about shocks in the rear though. I want to keep the stock rear air system, while it is still working...lol IT only has 55k miles and still works great. I plan to use shock extenders up front, but I am not sure what to do in...

    04 with Ford Keys, 285's or 315's?

    I am putting in Ford keys next weekend and need to decide on tire size. I want to go as large as possible, but not have rubbing issues. Common sense tells me to stick with the 285's, but I am going to run stock 17" wheels. I have seen a few other run the 315's with just keys and spacers...

    Air Bags?

    I just ordered them from my local 4x4 parts store, they priced matched the internet and I did not have to pay shipping. I think they were Ride Rite brand, they were pretty small compared to others that I had seen. It was the only kit I found for the Titan, I think they were like 1000lb bags...

    bagging the rear!! ''set n forget''

    Just wondering if you guys that mount your bags over the upper CA have checked your CA bushings. THe only reason I ask is the CA was not meant to carry the load of the vehicle, mainly to keep the wheel in place. I am not bashing at all, I know there were several mazda's back in tha day that...

    Air Bags?

    I dont know hom much this helps you, but I added helper bags on my Titan and loved them. They are different style and it had leaf springs, but stability was awesome. I was pulling an 8k pound 30ft camper. It felt 100% more stable after the helper bags went on. Oh, this is my first post...
