Would it be better to do the stretch at the same time as the mid arm?

OP
Ideally I’d do the stretch and midarm and outboard at the same time. But it’s not the end of the world to just slide it all back
Maybe but, I will do the mid arm this summer and see where I want to go from there. I have already done the outboarding. The stretch is out on the horizon as far as plans go. I may end up just stretching the frame 6" and cut off whatever sticks out the back.

Throwback pic to wheelin on 33” all terrains in 2020
Your rig has come a long way in one presidential term…….
Just think how far he would have gone if Trump would have been there.
OP
Curious what you think of these! I've read they're already discontinued.
OP
I don’t believe that to be true. There was a shortage of them but Mickey is distributing more out in a few weeks. Northridge had them in stock so I went through them.
OP
Didn't realize they were going away on the 17's too. I'm looking forward to your review and comparison.

The big test will be if the sidewalls hold to AZ
OP
Yeah I have the 16” big brakes and my current 15s just barely fit on there. It’s always a pain in the ass getting the tire monkeys to fit weights in there so I’ll make their job a little easier on them.
Many of us running bosses don't have any weights at all, nor do we feel we need any. Curious to see how yours balance out.
OP
That would bring me a tremendous amount of joy
I got one of the last sets of 17s in the country a couple years ago. The entire line is gone.
OP
Tire balancing has been the bane of my Jeep for many years. It’s been such a struggle. I doubt I remember what truly balanced tires even feel like lol
I bumped my BBK to the 15" rotor (and 15" holes in the saddle) because of this. Getting back to the 16" would be nice.
