Installed Method MR305 wheels / BFG KM3 37x12.5 -17 / Broncbuster Bushing + Tie Rod Sleeves

[scotman623]

Really happy how everything turned out on my Bad/Sqauch . I never used balance beads before, No tire shakes or anything, rides very smooth. Everything went very well installing the Bushing and the sleeves. I would say the job is an easy 2 on a 1-5 scale..I’m supposed to do AOAA this Saturday and then Run Vermont blue trails on Memorial Day to test everything out. I will do a trail report with lots of pictures and videos mid next week.. My build is almost complete now, still need roof lights, front winch bumper and rear bumper in the near future.

I just picked mine up yesterday to do the tire installation, such an AWESOME Jack.. Best 300 dollars I ever spent on tool- garage need.

Off topic: I'm not a fan of flare deletes but those are the most "finished" looking ones I've seen, who makes them?

This is the best tool I have ever purchased and everyone who works on their own wheels and tires 35" and up should buy one >> https://www.bronco6g.com/forum/thre...rotation-and-you-are-not-strong-enough.54217/

I definitely could have used that, installing 4 of this tire-wheel setup destroyed my back.. Will buy for future tire rotations, my vehicle NEVER goes to a shop if I can do something myself!

They are Bushwacker trail armor.. Got from extreme terrain.. Not sure if this is the finished look yet, I know I definitely didn’t like the oem Sasquatch fender flare look.. I keep searching to find a fender flare that looks good to me, Nothing yet so I went with the delete.. I’m also not worried about scratches or dents on my Bronco so that helps running this look.. I bought it to use off road and abuse it

What lift do you have to fit 37s?

 

[scotman623]

Just a small level kit up front, cut off crash bars and tucked wheel liners back a very little..I will be testing it off road the weekend on some hard blue-easy black trails to see how it does.. I almost think I could have gotten away without doing the leveling kit, I’m not into lifting it, don’t like the way it changes my center of gravity.. Time will tell..

Just a 1-inch front level? Please report back after testing. My lift gained me 1.5 up front over SAS, but I'm too scared to commit to even a small BFG 37. Just gathering data on different set ups before I pull the trigger.... $$$.

BTW your rig looks great!

Thanks my friend,yes 1 inch Up front.. I will definitely update on how it does, I plan on pushing it quite hard this holiday weekend.. Pics and videos

Yes let me know. I took off my SAS shocks and put on 6100s so it leveled and probably raised it 2 inches. Think I should be good. Big Bend 4dr with SAS is what I have.

I’m ALMOST certain you could run the KM3 37x12.5.. Without any issues.. I’m running a 0 offset wheel. Are you staying with stock wheels? You might have to run a 1/4 inch spacer if you do.. I will keep you posted my friend.
