Yea the 09 ranger I bought has several upgrades to it. And Ive heard several people say the outlaw tires cause several problems because of the way they are designed. I was going to buy a set for my new rig but they ride real ruff.

How much larger, taller/heavier, than stock are those tires on the ranger. I do a lot of rock crawling in my jeep in the Sierra Mountains, Rubicon Trail etc. and usually when larger tires are added, both in height and weight, without upgrading the rest of the components you experience breakage in the U-joints and axles, especially if the operator has a heavy foot. do you this this could be his problem? heavy acceleration while the front wheels are turned at full lock or close to it while under duress or while in the air and catching the ground hard?

Flatbroke,
I am not sure what the factory tires are on a ranger. These are 29.5 outlaws. The lugs on these tires are pretty aggressive, and I am sure they have something to do with the second and third breakage. However this same unit had a broken axle in the first few hours of use on factory tires too. It may have been a bad axle from the factory, really not sure. The Ranger in the picture is now for sale, and he is buying a 09 Ranger crew. It's going to be like driving a crew cab truck through the woods. Those things are huge.

The factory tires on a ranger are only 26 inches. My new 09 came with 26 inches but I want to go a little bigger just not shure with what style yet. Outlaw tires look good, I just here they cause problems on several atvs and utvs. If he buys that new 09 crew ranger man he can haul a whole army on it.
