Interesting. I'm doing everything I can to get weight out of the back of the TH and into / onto the truck.
I got sick of having all my external storage in my 5th wheel waaaaay up front near the truck adding to my pin weight. - RambinoExplorerFlipped the axles today. Seems the Attitude was built for the axles to be below the springs. The bottom entry step was about 1 inch off the ground. Brake wiring had plenty of extra so no splicing was needed. All we had to do was weld on the new spring mounts and bolt them back up under the springs. If I didn't have to buy welding supplies, the cost would have been about $20.

Replaced the OEM 235/80R16 LRE with 235/85R16 LRG
How much taller are the 85R's? I want to do the same thing. What brand did you go with?
The specs show the 85s are about 3/4 inch taller. After installing them the distance between the tires was the same. Went with Geostars from Les Schwab. Found no complaints online about them other than they are made in China. - RUFFSTUFFExplorerAnd oh yeah I got a new truck... Minor detail...
- RUFFSTUFFExplorerLast weekend I got a 10" Gel Memory Foam Mattress for the bedroom, even came with 2 gel pillows and covers... Haven't slept in it yet but I'm excited.
