Had the Toyo 35x11.50s for 30K or so before going to 37x11.50s. Worked great on and off road. Never had any issues in the rain, but I also don’t drive wet roads like they’re dry roads.

I’m lifted with 37s. I have a 6X6 block on top of my floor jack and prefer not dragging four 5 ton stands out unless I really need to. Cordless impact with a torque wrench. Can do it pretty quick but I’m usually not in a hurry and not watching the clock.

I've owned a 70, 71, and 85 Blazer. Of course I'll take a look. I'm sure to be disappointed. The 4.3L Vortec is probably a better engine than any of those came with, even though it's not a V8. The 350s in my K5s weren't exactly HO.

You were driving and turning with a broken tie rod?

Even with the bigger doors on the 2 door I don't have a problem, but maybe it's an arm strength issue. I just stand on the inside of the door, look down and set both hinges onto the pins. It's pretty easy for me. Are you standing on the outside of the door where you can't see the hinges?

Are you using the supplied guides?

I think you're on to something there. I never considered how much more walking folks with moredoors have to do to rotate their tires. I'm surprised any of them do it themselves unless they're marathon runners.

Drive

I only go to each tire once and I wouldn't even think of lifting my floor jack. That's why it has wheels. But if your way makes sense to you, keep at it. It's your time. It does look cool on jackstands in the parking lot, so that's something. Did you have to lug those stands out there and put...

yeah, that's what he's trying to tell you.

Well, I take the spare off and do one wheel at a time. Sure as heck a lot faster than jacking up one wheel at a time, placing each on jack stands, rotating tires, then jacking each up again to remove the stands. I just don't have that much time to waste. Unless I needed to kill time, which I...

That's the start to a nice pimpmobile.

The beauty of the 5 tire rotation is you don't need to use jack stands, unless you just want to stretch out the job so you don't have to do something else.

Mine cracked within 2 months of getting the Bronco in '21. Still have the same windshield. See no reason to replace.

Taking my '21 in next week for the TSB 21-2262 as I started throwing a P0304 code. I'll see what they have to say about the 3 or 4 recalls mine has on it. This will be the first time it's been to the dealership in 4+ years.
