Default New Guy here!

I have been looking here for a while. I don't have a fast car. But, I have built a Jeep based rockcrawler running an 06 GMC 6.0 LQ4, With an 05 4L80E. I am running 1 ton chevy axles with 4:56 gears and an AtlasII 5.0 Transfer case. I am here to learn more about my engine and tranny combination. It should be a beast offroad.

Nice rig, should do very well offroad. Those boggers look weird, I cant put my finger on it but not like any other boggers i have seen before, maybe the size and wheel combo is throwing me off. Anyway welcome to the site.

That is a sweet looking rig... I bet it is a blast to drive!

SSCamaro2000- I think it is the width of the tire compared to the height. They almost look as if they should be wider because they're tall.

The tire size is 38.5"Tall x 15.50"Wide x16" wheel. Mounted on 16x10 wheels. Drove it for the first time this past Friday. The 6.0 will spin the rear tires on concrete like they are nothing.

That has to be a awesome sight to see with those big 38's spinning... That is an expensive tire to use for a burnout though...
