Im going to d60s under the cherokee here soon on 35 splines axles

Since the shortage of swampers is screwing my tire selection up


What do you guys suggest in a 40-42" range that has a reasonable price tag on them.....
 
I was very happy with my Pit bulls performance. Takes a little longer to get the sidewalls broken in but I was always pleased with their traction. A second option,check with Rides see if they can still get creepy crawlers for cheep.
 
yea I talked to someone at rides and he said he could get Trepadors ina 40x13.50r17 pretty cheap but forgot to ask about the creepys.....

I had a friend with some Rockers in like a 39.5x16r20 on a wrangler...and they didnt do worth a damn in muddy leaves and muddy hills....I was kinda concerned with their performance
 
The creepys are the way to go, I have seen the treps and am not terribly pleased with them offroad, saw the creepys tho and they are just incredible.
 
Is there anywhere that still stocks TSLs in a 42? that anyone knows of?
 
I'd run 42s if you can fit them. unless you plan to race I'd go bigger. Iroks, pitbulls, TSLs, SXs, etc.

Creepies and Treps are only good in comp compound IMO. I spanked a coilover'd rig with blue label creepies with my leaf sprung IROKs.

edit: I just re-read your post. find a used set of Interco's.
 
I planned on running 42s...it will be leaf spring in rear and coil springs in front...got about 8.5" of lift and will be on 35spline D60s so Im sure they will clear fine....just having a hard time finding swampers...I would like to find 42s TSL SXs
 
4 wheel parts in Charlotte may have a set of those but iirc they were on 20" wheels. Don't hold me to that though, that was about 8 months back

speaking of Carolina truggies I need to get up with you all and see about getting some brackets welded on my 60s and maybe have someone look at my trackbar bracket on the frame and see what we could do about strengthening it ALOT....Im having alot of problems with it....

I have a ballistic Fab track bar bracket that replaced stock frame mount but its just not cutting it....the shop that welded it on there did some :poop: welds on it....

Where are you guys located?? Also I would have to have someone come look at jeep its not really street friendly lol

Are you high?

Or are you talking about the radials/non-comps?

:flipoff2:
 
In matthews right out side of charlotte. Just let me know where you are. I generally set aside part of a day during the week to run errands and such and i can come by and look at the Jeep. Just give me a shout.
 
I've got a set of 42" tsl's on recentered h1's I'd consider selling if price is right. Pm if interested.
