Lifted79CJ7 I didn't realize these were out, but it looks like the anty as been upped - went to the 4WP Wholesalers show today here in Atlanta: http://www.4wheelparts.com/ADT8.aspx And they had these bad boys there: That's a 44 sitting next to it.... :shock:
jeepsr4ever I believe those are 54's....definately a large tire. Would take a rockwell to utilize them, :razz:
Lifted79CJ7 Could have sworn the sticker on her said 59" X 19.5R20, but I could be wrong.... whatever they were, they were freakin HUGE!!!
76-cj7 54's are weak.....no tread at all....Go 49 IROK or 44 Bogger.....best tire for the money IMHO.......Know this from experience!
Mudrat DAMN DUDE!!!! :t: Why don't you crawl in the back of the truck and fix the tile in the ceiling :wink:
76-cj7 Anyone ever get bored and just for curiosity measure the axle diameter of a corporate 14 GM full-float and compare it to a 2 1/2 ton rockwell rear axle??? its only .001 bigger!!! WTF?!?!?
tufcj Because the Rockwell is a portal axle, gear reduction is done at the end of the axle (2.75:1). The load on that upper (inside) axle shaft is reduced by about 2.75 times over a 14 bolt. Bob tufcj
dan58 tfcj, I think you are thining of a Mog. A rockwell is a toploader design, but they don't have a portal box. My SF35-spline D60 has nearly the same diameter of a rockwell shaft. Rockwells can be upgraded with the Ouverson Engineering 47-spline chromo shafts, which are 2" and $2K for fronts. Big tires - 54 bogger, 49 Irok, 47 TSL LTB, 46 Claw, 44 Bogger and TSL.
tufcj Guess I shouldn't post in the morning (particularly Monday) until the cobwebs from the night before have cleared. :razz: :razz: Some of the Rockwells did have planetaries out on the end, but they're not portals, My bad. Bob tufcj
