33s


A buddy ended up selling me his old tires because he was looking to get a bigger size.  These 33x10.5r15 tires fit my existing rims perfectly.  They do rub a little when making sharp turns but otherwise they work flawlessly.  There is an increase in road noise on the highway but its not like the Bronco is a quiet vehicle to start with.

The photo above was from a few weeks back.  Unfortunately, all the mud/water fried my solenoid on my winch so I will be working on repairing that soon.


Another issue was the power steering pump went out.  It was working intermittently but the Bronco is not easy to turn at low speeds without the pump.  The picture above is the old pump.  I was able to purchase a reman unit with reservoir from the parts store for about $65 and I'll get another $7 or so back when I return the old unit.
