about to make the move from 3" to 5" and go from 31x10.50s to something bigger...
Its my DD but I ride a bike most of the time in the summer so the main idea with this thing is to never get stuck in snowy, icy, high angle situations. I'm thinking 33x12.50s and chains all around and ultimately going to 4.56s (8.25 rear).
Anyone have experience w/ chains on 33s? I've only use chains on much bigger trucks before and don't know how much stress that would put on the axles, atc. 35s a possibility? Or will I have to stay with 31s?
It doesn't ever really play in the mud or heavy on the rocks so I am not looking to build a hardcore wheeling trail rig, but I have buried it in snow with the lift and tires that are on it now and would like it to have a bit more flex for getting me into my favorite camping and biking spots.
Both diffs are staying open, other than gears, tires and chains, what other mods are good for deep snow? I know a winch but that's still a bit off.
