(wheels tyres and all) (80)

[Guest]

Hi Guys
I just received my new wheels and tyres today. Jeese for want of a better
word without cursing which can be quite difficult at times for us Irish. But
God these wheels /tyres 33 s are really BIG BIG BIG wonderful things. Im
like a kid with a new toy again as the wife keeps pointing out. Now that I
have the OME springs and shocks and now the wheels and tyres, its all go. I
have a few questions again for the brave few who can give the answers. When
the bits are on the cruiser will it be necessary to adjust the brake thing
on the back diff that regulates the braking power to the rear, will it be
necessary to change the gear ratio thing in the back diff. Im sorry about
not knowing the names of these , its just info that I have collected
somewhere, sometime and stored in my head , not really a good place I hear
you say I know I know. Anyway thanks for the help. Next thing is the brakes
and the exhaust I thing and hopfully in that order. What will I do when Im
finished oh yea actually take it off road I think would be a good idea.

Hi John,
Because of the new springs in theory you do need to adjust the "thing"
but in practice I have found that for a 2" lift it makes no noticeable
difference, definitely doesn't need to be on the 'must do' list IMHO,
it's not hard to do though.
No, there is such a small difference it really isn't worth thinking
about.
Like Pete said, stick them on and enjoy.
Best Regards,
Jon.
