Actually I'd like to go up in tire size to bring the 4.10's down to a bit more economical ratio for milage.

I've put in a cammed 400 SMB with approximately a 12% ^ in power along with a special built TH 350 for pulling. 3.73's would be a perfect set up for a bit better milage and still have the "grunt" pulling the horse trailer or the flatbed.

Both the front and rear would have to be changed being it's a 4 X 4. Unless the tire diameter could be exactly configured to a different ratio in the rearend to match the 16.5's and the 4.11's in the front.

If the 16.5's can be had in dual configuration, I can retain the next to new rubber now with only the addition of 2 tires.
