My F250 7.3L with Goodyear Silent Armor 235/85R16 cupped on the outside edge,as did the Coopers that came with the truck. I replaced balljoints and shocks (Bilsteins 5100's and it was corrected. Hope you get it worked out.

Awesome Rig, Congratulations turbopilot :)

Also, it will be just like a regular truck cap and not a slide in shell. I plan on bolting it to the bed and using compression springs on the bolts to allow for twisting. Something like this

Sounds like a good plan, I can't wait to see what you come up with.

looks good

I have 235/85/16 Good Year Silent Armor on my F250 but I live in SW PA where we have wet sticky snow that turns to ice when compressed and soft top soil. My personal preference for this area is tall and skinny. I had 315's BFG AT on my Ram 2500 and got stuck all the time. It really depends what...

Have you thought about a used Alaskan Camper? Its nice to be able to stand after a while when the weather is nasty. If you go with a DCU try and get one with a Full Hatchback. I hate getting slammed with the barn doors when the wind picks up, it will also keep your stuff dry when cooking in the...

Would you be able to invert the bolt so the side with the nut is exposed and tack weld??
