    Tire size 285/75R16

    Hey! I think those are about 33", it should be pretty OK for normal driving if you have factory 3.73 gears. If you've got taller gears, it'll suffer more. I know mine struggled with 34's with the 3.73s.

    2001 Ford Expedition Eddie Bauer 4x4

    I'm on 34s, but some people have gotten 35s to clear as well. I have the Supreme 2" spacer lift in the rear and I cranked the torsion bars up front a couple inches.

    '98 Expy Overland Build

    So it's been a smidge over a year since I bought the truck, I think my mod list has been pretty decent so far! Once I finish the paintwork I'll take a few pictures.

    '98 Expy Overland Build

    Went out for ~5 hours today in the mountains. Took on some moderately challenging obstacles without issues. The rest of the mods will help for peace of mind, and frankly I'd like to replace every single suspension component in this thing I think haha. It definitely has more play than it should...

    '98 Expy Overland Build

    Thank you! I'll definitely join that group. And oh I'm very much interested in your regear hookup. I'm actually already planning on going out tomorrow just for a drive. Nothing too far or adventurous, I have to replace a number of suspension components before I push it at all, but it'll be nice...

    '98 Expy Overland Build

    Hey all! I'm starting a thread for my overland/weekender build so people can keep up with the process. I'm starting off with a '98 Expy EB 4X4 w/ 5.4L V8 and 3.73 LSD. It's 100% stock right now, but relatively well-maintained. Here's what it looks like currently with just the new tires on. My...

    What shocks? 4X4 EB w/ Supreme 2" Lift

    Hey, I'm looking to replace some leaking and useless shocks on my Expy and I am not sure which ones to look at. Anyone have any current recommendations? I've been finding lots of discontinued options.
