The issue is that the f250 has a HUBcentric wheel that rests on the hub to bear the weight. When i lifted and bought wheels the place put on LUGcentric spacers which put all the front end weight on the lugs.i didn't know the difference at the time but also didn't know they were there. Destroyed...
I am needing to push the wheels out. You can use spacers but need to be VERY careful to have high quality one specific to your vehicle.
7 grand it cost me to find out I used the wrong off road shop. For myself it is cheaper to have the right wheel.
Truck is in shop now getting new wheels. Existing wheels didnt have enough offset to keep from rubbing with the 40 inch tires. Next purchase is onboard air with 100 percent duty cycle as i have discovered two electric air compressors cant keep up.
I keep chainsaw and timber jack always because I am frequently alone. Cut the tree at both spots where it crosses the road then pull it to the side with a chain. Pull backwards till I can roll past it then forward to get it to the side of the road. then go on. once in a while I will fill the...

I was on it today.. it is a bit rutted. Spaas crreek and pumpkim hollow were muddy but passable. Mtn. Springs road is overgrown and i have new pinstriping on my f250 to prove it. It is also the only place i bottomed out due to ruts. I am driving an f250 with 6inch lift and 40 inch tires. I did...
