Dumbass (me) used the cheap waterpump gaskets that came with it rather than spend $5 on the Felpro, so i got to RE install it when they leaked.

I put the Felpros on it, no leaks.

I've used Discount Tire Direct multiple times and will continue doing so. Their prices are higher than Tire Rack, but with free shipping they win in the end.

These are - 6mm offset (-1/4") wheels and 8.5" wide rims, which project out further than stock.

I tried to get comparison pics.

I just ordered a set of those Cooper Discoverer AT3 tires for our F150 work truck. They run those tires on the fleet trucks at my company’s main office with good results.

My 2 wheel drive sub has 31x10.5 on 15 inch factory rims. I put the Cooper Discoverer RTX on those, from NTB Tire, and I've been very happy with them.

I tried to squeeze out enough budget for a load range E on my 4wd, but had to settle for the P metric in a load index of 116.

That thing needs an alignment.

That thing needs an alignment.

Yes it does, but how can you tell based on the pics? The upper ball joints are very tight, but the lower ball joints give the tires about 3/16" of Wiggle.

I had not realized the ball joints have worn this much until I put these tires on.

Visible positive camber in the left front. I'm guessing the outside of that old tire was gone.
