Oh man, those are massive tires. Great video! I was trying to stop and say high last week when we were next door but the demands of the kids prevented it. Hopefully next time!
We love our Stazworks wheels on our Kodiak truck camper! Have you looked into switching the front springs out with Deaver progressive leafs? That’s one of our next mods.
Yes. I've talked to Pat at HD shocks about front springs. Shipping cost from California would have been steep though. We may still get them when we are down that way this winter. To be honest though, the shocks were a major improvement in ride and I'm not super keen on lifting the front another 1.5 or two inches.... I'm on the fence.
@@TheTimeIsNowAdventures from what I have heard it really improves the ride. I’m in AZ so shipping isn’t to bad. I want to do the King shocks as well. Love your build!
Best way to balance those kind of tires or the beads inside the tire or the dyna beads that are in the ring that mount to the hub. Had on my 2003 for over 15 years and never had a balancing issue. Especially for high speed driving. Trying to do all the other methods always had vibrations
Glad the beads worked out for you. I've used them in several trucks and never had consistent results. I think they are great if you're picking up mud etc in your wheels though. Thanks for commenting.
I don't suppose Goodyear has a highway speed rated inflation chart for those tires ?, conversely a low speed inflation chart for off road. I would imagine once you have the camper in, the front won't need more air but the rear will will need ... again, hard to know what pressure it will require as one doesn't want to run under inflated and yet not way over inflated. I get the impression that far too many HD trucks ( talking 3/4 and 1 ton ) are putting way too much air pressure in when not really loaded down much and just suffers from a rough ride and beating up the truck and passengers for nothing.
A chart could be handy to get a starting point but using an infra red heat gun to measure tread temperature seems to work well. Adding about 5 in the front and 15 in the rear seems close with the camper loaded. I'm sure we'll fine time that a little more when we get traveling soon.
