Topic: 47's are coming!

That would be kind of cool to see. There's a thread going on over on Pirates right now where some guy from Canada actually did break the 300M cage in one of bobbies birfs., but it sounds like an oddball incident, and not so much like driving style that broke it.

Yea I saw that thread.  I totally agree it has to be a freak thing.  The guy ony has a 4" stroke ram for steering, there is no way he was overturning.

I bet you could break a 30 spliner with these babies. The 44" bogger looks small.

hmmm, don't know about running a 47" just yet, I have to admit, I prefer the tall and skinny tires, been wantin to get the 38x11.00x15 Boggers for my Yota.  Wish an 35x10.50 A/T was available for street driving, the SSR has a 35x10.50, but it's kinda of an agressive tread for a street tire.  Dana 60's are a ways out, so the 47's will have to wait.  Hey, you guys think a Unimog axle would stand up to the 47"??

yes. Volvo portals are quite strong.
