    Downside of using the 2" to 2.5" sleeve?

    I tow a 11,000 lb TT with a 2 1/2 sleeve on my 2" WDH. Did have it welded after listening to noise from too much misfit of parts. Noise is about 75% better.

    Thanks - I figured that might be the case; but I had to ask.

    DEF filter cleaner?

    My 2500 CTD just turned 44000 miles. Is there a real fluid cleaner that goes into the def filler tube that works? I'm not having any issues; but thought maybe I could stay ahead of any problems.

    Beware of US 491

    Rt 491 from Shiprock NM to Gallup NM, absolutely is the worst stretch of hwy we encountered during our 5200 mile trip from San Antonio to Glacier NP and back to S.A. Yes there were bad sections of road in every state, but 491 got my vote for disgusting.

    Anyone running a 295/65/20 on stock suspension?

    No, didn't try without the spacers. I wanted sidewalls even with factory fender flare. This is close. Those spacers look like mine. Note - I had to use a cut off wheel to shorten factory studs. a 1" or 11/2" spacers will require to cut factory studs. Studs will hit back side of the factory...

    American made tire

    Look at Tire Rack web site. Pick a brand tire, pick a style (AT-3) look at the complete tire size & specs menu. The last column on the right side gives place of manufacture. As an example - Toyo is listed US

    Porpoising, sway, coil vs lead, airbags, TT vs 5er, and more!

    I agree - Owned a 6200 lb. 25ft. TT when I bought the 2500. I didn't even know I was towing a TT at that time. Wife wants more room; I told her the 37ft would be marginal with the 2500; and it is . However, I'll safely make it work to my satisfaction.

    Better tire size for towing

    Thanks - I think so also; but maybe I will get more input from others.

    Better tire size for towing

    Thanks, good info - I like personal experience feedback. I still have the 20" TransForce with 26,000 miles. I pull a TT @ 11,000 lbs. I like the 18" tall sidewall look, but do not want to give up control.

    Better tire size for towing

    Thanks for your input - I do not have a sway problem, I want the best control possible for passing eighteen wheelers. Most all E rated use 80 psi from what I have researched.

    Better tire size for towing

    If you take 2 same brand rated E sidewall and overall height tires; but one is a 18" diameter wheel and the other a 20"; which one will feel better towing? Buy feeling better; I mean fighting trailer sway. I believe the 20" should, but I'm asking anybody with hands on experience.
