I did the Readylift 1.5” leveling kit. ReadyLIFT RAM 1500 1.50-Inch Front Leveling Kit with Tubular Upper Control Arms 66-19150 (19-22 RAM 1500 w/ Air Ride, Excluding TRX) - Free Shipping. Mine has the air suspension, and I think non air ride kit is a bit different.

Also I did 305/45/22 Nitto Recon Grapplers. So far no complaints.

One of you tire gurus help me out with a good 20” size. Truck is going to see a good bit of dirt road driving. These don’t have a lot of road noise do they.

I have Toyo MT's on my Tundra, with 36k miles on them they are quieter that the stock duratracs were when the duratracs were new.

Brought the front up 2” and put some 295-65-R20 Nitto Recon Grapplers on. Thanks guys for the recommendations. They have some road noise but I can live with it.
I might should have gotten one size down. These are huge.

Our volunteer fire dept got paged to a fire about a half mile from my house. I responded in the old 1988 F350 Brush Rig that's stationed at my house. We heroically saved the 8th tee box from being lost to the fire. :rolleyes:

I was wondering why I saw the CalFire semi with the dozer on the back with its sirens on yesterday screaming through downtown.

Also, love the 350...

I came very close to buying a rig like that a few months back.

VERY nice!! Although...today's trucks are so HUGE 35's look normal! lol

What's your setup? My buddy just got a 2022 2500HD LTZ and he's talking new tires and you nailed the look he's going for.
I about wrote the same thing! Used to be the BIG tires were 35's. Now it's just a Leveling kit away! Time marches on!

Yeah, it's amazing how 35's look kinda small on these trucks. The setup is easy, it's a stock Z71 LTZ, stock suspension and wheels, and after 50k miles I put the Nitto's on there, no rubbing or issues, the 35x12.5/20's fit the stock wheels just fine.

They're great trucks. Gutless by today's standards, but they're reliable and have a 3 cyl diesel engine in the back driving the pump. We've tested them with about 600 feet of 1.5" hose with a fifty foot rise at the end and the hoses will fail before the water pressure is lost. We have three of them, and they're actually sequential VIN numbered.
