LETS SEE THOSE 35'S ON STOCK WHEELS

What's yalls thoughts on no sway bars for trucks that mostly pull trailers and go to home depot?
I always ditched them on square body chevys and the YJ.

I like my Thuren active rate sway bar.

I’ve ran rigs in the past without one, and for a HD truck I’d rather have one.

That being said, lots of great reports from guys on this forum who don’t run them. It’s all personal preference.

if I had aftermarket (softer) springs or aftermarket arms, I would for sure run the thuren bar.

Pulling the front takes a few mins and you’ll know after a trip around the block if you like it or not. I had the front off for a year or two before I pulled the rear. I have sumos in the rear which also help with stability.

Installed my Thuren suspension components.
Front springs: 1” lift (diesel) soft rate.
Rears: 0” lift mid-rate.
Front and rear track bars.
Front sway bar.
Bilsteins 5100s

Measures 44” in rear ground to bottom edge of fender flare. 42” in front. Figure there may be some sag as the springs settle in but hoping not. Really like the stance.

295/65/20 Falken RT01 HD

Basically from a 33.5 to a 35.4" tire. Standing back, it does indeed fill the wheel wells better. Initially thought what a waste, but there is a difference.
According to Falken, their 295/65/20 Wildpeak RT01 HD is a 35.4X12X20

4th set of tires on this truck in 5,000 miles, now. I think this is also the best looking.

Truck looks great! Any chance we can get a side profile? I’m curious how far past the fenders those 295’s stick out on the stock 20’s with no flares.
 
Does your truck have a leveling kit or any front end mods? I’m trying to decide between 285/65r20’s and 295/65r20’s mainly due to some folks having running issues running the 295’s.

My truck has a 2.5" Level on the front.

I know for a fact a 12.5" wide tire WILL rub the radius arms. After driving my truck to and from work and errands for 3 days. I haven't rubbed, once.

Even had the radio off the first day, making tight turns.
