Marlin's Truck: Post your pics!

[THK Matt]

i think its just the truck.. Also fun fact the 37" irok is actually SMALLER than the 36" irok. the 37's are just a rounder tire i guess

36x13.50R15's
36.8in Height
11.0in Tread width
66lbs

37x14.00R15's
36.5in Height
10.7in Tread width
69lbs

No brainer there

now that you guys have mentioned that it's going to bug me now...

is it a super swamper (SSR or something similar?)   that jumps from a 36 to a 38" tire...

The TSL SX does.

36x12.5R15 --> 38x12.5R15

Definitely not SSRs , they're Iroks for sure .

Yea I know, I was asking if the SSR was the tire I was thinking of that jumps in size from 36" to 38"

[iNfErNaL]

Gotcha . I'm not sure if they make an SSR in a 36 though , I know they make it in a 37 . Maybe you're thinking of the SXs . Those jump from a 36 to a 38 .

They're a good tire

[iNfErNaL]

I've always liked them . The only ones I didn't like were the 38.5x14.5 SXs . They rode horrible on the street .

I wonder why... thats weird lol Im concerned mine are going to ride like poop

Thats pretty cool!

[iNfErNaL]

Yeah it's weird , they rode like crap on the street . Felt like my rig at the time was going to fall apart . My co-worker at 4 wheel parts at the time bought a set of the 38-14.5s also and same thing , he swapped out 9 tires in a couple of months . They ended up giving him a set of 38" Boggers . I also know a girl from AZ who had them on her lifted F-150 and she ended up trading them for a set of Parnelli Jones because of the same reason .

[THK Matt]

strange. hows your LTBs do? or you never been on the street with the Taco?

[iNfErNaL]

They're regular TSLs . I've only driven it on the street a couple of times (maybe about 8 miles total) and they ride okay   

[THK Matt]

Oh thats right.... TSLs lol.

Eh ill guess mine will do til tax time for some Iroks

Natural plus flash.
Canon 40D Body, Sigma 10-20mm F4-5.6 EX DC HSM with a CP filter, Canon 580EXii Flash zoomed to 105mm
Basically a Polaroid point and shoot.

I would love to actually do a shoot of Marlin and his truck with the proper gear, but that'll be another time.

[hansi530]

is there any pis of his 3rd gen pick up and his fj 40s

[BigMike]

is there any pis of his 3rd gen pick up and his fj 40s

As for his Cruisers..... I don't think we ever took any pics of them. If we did, they would be old photos that would need to be scanned, if we even have any

For the 3rd gen, I know I have a few more pics from a Panamint Valley Days run, but I'll have to dig them up. They will only be about 0.3 megapixel because that's the best camera we had back then hahaha
