Re: Scuffing sound on take off with BFG KO2s?

60 in the front, ~48 in the rear with usually a couple hundred pounds of stuff in the bed. Size is 285/75/17. I have started to play with pressures a little but less concerned about it now, especially since I just noticed the transfer case output shaft seal is leaking quite nicely. :thppt: This truc...

Re: Tire Feedback

Thanks for the feedback. I wouldn't be too concerned if it weren't for a road trip coming up!

Interesting. Do you recall about how many miles on the tires before the sound went away?

Re: Tire Feedback

Hey guys, I just started a thread asking this question, but I'm hoping I may get some feedback in this thread if that one gets nothing. I just had BFG KO2s put on the truck. I've noticed that during acceleration (even very mild), I hear the rear tires making a scuffing sound, much like what it sound...

Scuffing sound on take off with BFG KO2s?

Just got some new BFG AT KO2s on the truck. Oddly, I'm hearing a fairly loud scuffing sound, only under acceleration, coming from the rear tires on pavement. We're talking very mild acceleration here. It's slightly pronounced in turns, but not much. The sound is exactly like the scuffing sound of tu...

Re: Diff fluid change? Rookie help.

My diff guard required a bit of grinding to get it to fit without leakage. Still messing with it actually....still not perfect. 2012 PW

Largest tire practically possible on a stock '12

Got a '12 PW that is stock in terms of suspension and wheels. Anyone know the largest tire I could put on it without any significant rubbing or other issues? I don't feel like doing any mods at this point to get tires to work. I appreciate any input. I searched for the answer but didn't find anythin...
