My 37" tire experience

[hellasf1]

Well then lol I might be part of the full spare gang after all. I guess will see going to think through this

Any issues stock bar with 1.5 rear springs?

Any issues stock bar with 1.5 rear springs?

Nope but if i could fit the Foutz, id have it just based on geometry though. I know it has to be a tiny bit off after the lift.

Anyone install a aftermarket panhard bar? I have a foutz ones that’s going on Tuesday with Eibach pro 2.7 front 1.5 rear. Keeping stock beadlocks and bought 37x13.5 Falken wildpeak RT. Concerned on spare location with new panhard bar. Any thoughts or suggestions?

Here is a pic of how close factory trackbar gets with a 37” falken. I can’t imagine an aftermarket one having the same clearance, but maybe this pic with help you compare.

Do you have rear Eibach lift springs on yours? Is the axle off?

Dam that’s close for sure. Is that a Falken RT tire?

Also, based on this picture, I’m gonna go with the previously mentioned negative 33% chance of it working.

Yes i have rear eibach lift 1.5. Visually my axle looks fine but geometrically speaking, I know that it has to be off by a touch.

Haha -33% it is! It is amazing that no aftermarket makes an adjustable bar with a flat center like OEM.

 

[hellasf1]

Looks like a +33% chance I might not put on the foutz for now. Lol Either wait for another option to relocate the spare or as you mentioned @blaster9 wait for maybe someone to make and adjustable flat center one.

 

[hellasf1]

What y’all think of this option for spare? They make a single too. https://westcottdesigns.net/product/universal-hitch-mount-tire-rack-with-cooler-work-table/

 

[hellasf1]

I also messaged foutz asking if they can build panhard bar with flat center. Will see

I run similar on my heavy duty ram with 40’s. It’s effective, but adds a ton of weight leverage behind the vehicle and makes getting in and out of the tailgate a pita.

can i ask why your hitch is turned around backwards? If you get rear ended - dont you want that ball in their bumper or would you rather them bounce off that massive 40 lolol? I guess either one works!

Thank you for the post. I agree it def not something that would be my first choice on our TRX’s. But the set up you have on your heavy duty looks awesome for sure!

Mostly because the truck is nearly 23’ long and when i back in i need all the space possible, but also because I’ve killed my shins too many times on a trailer ball. It will actually still do the job in this config, unless it’s another big truck.

37x13.5r18 Falken Wildpeak RT’s. 8 PSI idk that looks to close for comfort. @blaster9 what does your jack trick do? Will it help? I might have to go to 0 PSI.

I’ll post before and after measurements for those looking to go with Eibach 2.7 and 1.5. Only drove it 15 minutes home but so far I love but need more time behind the wheel to give true review. (Plus they filled the 37’s up to 40 PSI so I’ll play around with that too) I have the sensors being adjusted Friday after some days for springs to settle and all.

So mine have more clearance than that fully in flatted. Just did it this week. Put the blue tape on and waiting to tow the boat and DD will get back. I also have 18x9 -12 though. But I have about a 1/4-1/2” I have the 1.5/1.6 eibach.
