NY For trade...4" Rancho lift for 3/4 ton stock - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

velonut · 09-05-2011, 12:21 PM

I have a 2500 series 4x4 6.2 diesel...it's fitted with a rancho 4" lift kit, Eagle polished alloy wheels 16.5 wheels and 35-12.5 x 16.5 tires...it's too agggressive for me, so I am looking to trade/sell the set up for a stock suspension and wheel and tire combo! If I can get a less aggressive tire on the Eagles...that would be great.
Thanks.

This site is great and really got me back into the boxy truck thing which started with my very trusty 6.2 diesel Suburban 4x4.

cell # 914-355-zero 19 four.

What tires does it have,how much wear,and how much would you want for them?

velonut · 09-06-2011, 09:14 AM

The tires are BIG FOOT XT's 35 x 12.5 x 16.5 with about 60% tread left and even wear across the tread.
Are you interested in the tires only or wheels and tires? The wheels are in great shape Eagle 058 style...3/4 8 lug. You can get them online for about $550 a set plus s&h. Center caps and lugs would be included from me. make me an offer as I would like to restore the truck close original height etc.

I'd like to buy just the tires,if you'll do that. Are those Big O's? My problem is I have a few sets of vintage 16.5 wheels and I'd like to get a set of tires "less aggressive" than Super Swampers,Boggers,Ground Hawgs,etc. I already have one set of Super Swampers and want another set for the beach. Those Bigfoot XTs look like they'd work pretty good. I'm sure you could sell the wheels since they are nice alloy wheels. I also just took the stock suspension off of my '85 diesel Jimmy and have those springs. The fronts are the same as were on my '91 3/4t Suburban. The rears would be lighter,I'd guess. Do you now if your rear springs are 52" or 56"? These are 52". I will be taking the stock rear 52" springs off my K2500 soon to put a lift on that. So,those springs will be available. I don't have any stock wheels and tires to trade,but would trade the springs if you want them. I have a pair of Gas Rider shocks for the rear that are in good shape,too,that you could have. Let me know if you would sell just the tires,if you're interested in the springs,and we'll go from there with an offer.

The problem for me at the moment would be no tires= no truck! so I really need to get the wheels and tires sorted out 1st. After that I could be a bit more flexible.

I guess I am saying let me get some wheels and tires and then we can talk some more.

Ok. It would be ideal if someone had a stock truck like yours and wanted to lift it 4" and put 35s on. Maybe you'll get lucky. If not,and you get wheels and tires,give me a shout on the tires. I have the springs if you want.
Are they these tires?

Thats what I was thinking as well...

Yes, those are the tires...I bought the truck in California and do not think the tires are distributed in the North East.

I'll let you know how it goes.
Tony.

Yeah,Big-O is limited to maybe 5 western states. They were all over Arizona when I lived there30 or so years ago. I guess that makes them even more attractive to me. Keep me in mind...thanks
