It was a good thing I locked up my 33x12.5 tires on dry pavement as well, else I'd have probably plowed into that van.


isnt that exactly what you dont want?


Yes, you are correct, however, knowing I can lock them up is a far cry better than what I had before. Locking them up will stop me faster than not having the power to overcome the tire-size and stop me at all. That's why I said I didn't skid through the whole thing...I ease off when they do lock up, then back on 'em more. These trucks weren't built with anti-lock brakes.

If you ever have to do a stop like this with a Gen I 4-banger (particularly an 87 or earlier), 33" tires, and stock brakes, you'll know what I mean.
