Will 32" tires fit on a feroza

Post by 7017 »

G'day,

Just wondering if 32x11.5x15s will fit on a feroza widetrack. I have a 2" body lift and a 2" tough dog suspension lift and i'm currently running 30" maxxis buckshot mudders and there is no scrubbing what so ever.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

Simon

Absolute tire sizes vary - 32 might be bigger or smaller in real life.

My strong suggestion is that they won't fit - my 31's touch at full bump and the 34's are nightmare.
( usual disclaimers )

It seemed like a much better idea when I started it than it does now.

I have 32's on my off roader only Rocky. They cause some scary noises when meeting the body bits. They raise the gearing significantly also.
This doesn't matter greatly where I play, but if you are thinking about serious stuff, you might want a few spare clutch disks. lol

Had 33's on mine and didn't have any issues, but I had a 3" body lift and Tough Dog suspension lift.

Well there you go...... 31's touch sometimes for most, 32's rub hard, 33's with 3" lift clear and 34's are a nightmare under all circumstances.

Just how does a Tough Dog front suspension lift work ?

It doesn't.... :roll:

New torsion bars, cut bump stops and longer reach shockies. Had the foam 76mm's i think they were. Don't quote me as it was years ago.

Great for compression but not much extra travel.. Locked diff helped to make up for that.

The torsion bars were for a Navara from memory and slightly modded to suit. As I said, it was about 6 years ago so don't quote me.

That's what I thought....... just couldn't see how it would lift without major suspension redesign or compromising droop.

No idea whey longer shocks - the standard front ones will handle full travel and quite a bit more, but the rear certainly needs teh extra.

Here is a link to MINI_DOZER from back in the day. Not much info on there but there are a couple of pics.

It was a fun rig for sure though. Would like another and would do a front axle conversion though.
