Re: Big tires and lifts

Era correct? That doesn't mean the same year. I consider a '72 from the '70s era. I know I bought a set of 14.50/37 Armstrong Tru-Tracs from the first batch through Dick Cepek in '77. Gumbo Mudders and Ground Hawgs were already out in '36s for a couple years,at least. Denman was making uni-directional 9.00-16,Co-op had Grip Spurs,and Goodyear made Extra Tractions in that size,too from way back before these trucks came out. Those are about 35"

Here's some info on Cepek:
