Lookin for a specific truck on here....

Ok I've searched and searched with no luck. There is a black FX4? on this site that sits how I want my truck to sit. It's give away is the "scuba diving flag" inlay on the grill. I forgot his name and everything else pretty much otherwise I'd had better luck finding it. I want to figure out his tire size, I believe he was running something a little bit different. Like maybe a 285 bfg. For those who don't know the scuba sign is a red background with white diagonal slash thru it. Thanks for your help

I'm almost 99% positive that all he has is a leveling kit and tires that equal 34/11.50

I saved a picture of NCSU's truck back when I was trying to decide on a setup. He is running a 2.5" level kit and 285/65/20 BFG AT's.
This is the guy, right?


I'm running the same level kit and tires...just on OEM 20's

That's the one thanks everyone. Mustangjohnny do u have the 3.55 gears like I do. From what I understand all FX4 w/ 20" factories got the 3.55 treatment? is that correct? If so do you do any towing or notice a big loss in power on take off.

I came back in here about a month ago and noticed the house was cleaned. I have no idea what went down.

Not correct. I have an 08 FX4 that origianally came with 20's & 3.73's, I have since swapped out to FX4 18's.

Ya know, I'm not sure what gears I have. I don't have the original sticker and I haven't yet been underneath the back to read the tag....it's been a busy winter here.

I will say that I don't tow with the truck. And I didn't really notice the truck being slower necessarily. I have done the exhaust and the "Gotts" style intake since then but that isn't making that much of a power difference. The larger rolling stock is noticeable when braking. I'm sure if you have a trailer brake on whatever you're towing, you'd be fine.

Did the dealer add the OEM 20s? I was going to order one before I found mine and the only way to keep 3.73s was to stick with the OEM 18s. 20s and 3.55s were part of the same package and you couldn't get one without the other.

I bought my 07 FX4 right off the lot. It came with the factory option 20" wheels W/ 3.73 LS Diff.
