    Hello,
    I have one question again. How do i have to adjust the track for the front wheels. At the moment i adjusted the Track so that the front wheels stand parallel.
    Is this correct?

    Tires?

    Hate to bring this up again and I have read past posts but has anyone tried to sneak a LT215R80 16" under a stock ride height 1/2 ton. I found some that are brand new bought for a late 70's ton'er. Very skinny and very tall. Running a 1 to 1 final drive on trans with a Chevy 12 bolt 373.

    I have an all stock 1950 1/2 ton and I am running LT215/85R-16. Thats just slightly taller than what you asked about and it works fine. Mine are take offs from my uncle's 2007 1 ton dually silverado.

    In my opinion they look kinda bad, too tall, but they work for me as a temp since they were free. They are taller than the stock tires. To see for your self see some of the more recent posts in my build thread.
