I just got them on this afternoon, picked them up in White Center around 10am and had them on my car at about 3pm, I cant wait to use them, but I got a little work ahead of me before I can go wheeling again. This last Run was a bit hard on old Butters, I broke a couple of welds, tore a mirror off and smashed some of my pannels up. Not to mention I need to pound over the pinch welds and trim a little on the fenders, 30s would work with little cutting and pounding but the 31's with lots of tread, need some clearance............................

I have 31s on the front of the 5 door white wheeler , I extended the radius rod 1" helped a bunch,

 

Ya Bill did that on his too, I think I might have to do it just to get it to turn and not tear the knobs off on the Tires....................

+1

 

Mine are extended 1.25" and it does help a lot. The sleeve over the radius rod helps beef things up too. Also I think it helps to create a little more caster and a little better approach angle too. After I sleeved them and was putting it all back together I put the outer bolt in first, then had to ream out the other hole in the control arm to get the bolt through.
