It is always better to go wider......so go with a 265x75x16
it will be taller about32" and wider than stock plus it will fit on factory 16" rims.
Oh' and when you crank the torsion bars up to match the rear lift the rodeo will be alot more stable on the roads....almost like a very fat corvette <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/ignore.gif" alt="" />



Don't go bigger than 32's if there are hills there <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> and yes AT's would be better.....look at the Revo's several folks have them and like them.


yes and no <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> you can put the coils in and lift the front..but when you hit a big bump or curb <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" /> the back will max out the shocks and your kidneys will almost make your seat wet <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> but I have over 30k on mine with stock shocks which are due to be changed out with the longer ones in the back of the truck(for almost a year <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/shiner.gif" alt="" />now)

lock it up in the back and you'll embarras alot of "4wd's" that are open/open......it's really a good feeling <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

I'm familiar with LSD and that's something I had in consideration, is there a way to find out if my truck has one already?

Oh, and my rims are stock 15s, I hope they make 265x75x15... or I can buy some rockcrawlers!! (49.99 per rim) I didn't think they cost that little...

Now to save some money!!

Just get some OME 912 or 919 rear springs from http://www.rocky-road.com/ and crank the torsion bars. Rocky Road sells Old Man Emu springs for all Isuzu's, you will have to order those listed for the Trooper to get the OME 912's ro 919's. Rocky Road is the cheapest I have found for OME springs, right at $155 with shipping. I have been happy with Calmini Shocks, although they no longer make the ones I am using. Gabriel Ultra and Pro Guard are a nice inexpensive shock that works great on lifted Isuzu's, Ultra in the rear and Pro Guard in the front on my 2000 and 2001 Rodeos. You can lift a late model Rodeo or Amigo with all new shocks and new rear springs for around $250.

LSD was usually installed on the 4X4 with disk brakes. You can check your rear axle to see if it has 2 ID tags attached to the back plate to see if it limited slip.

It seems to me that this can also be determined by looking at the plate on the firewall (driver's side) in the engine bay, right? You should see a "G80" code if it has the LSD. Mine has it, but I didn't notice that code on the plate until after I bought it. Just lucked out, I guess... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />
