Super Singles Aluminum MRAP & MPT81. Finally got it right. Part 2

[@LuciferRatzinger187]

💯❤️Nice truck, I'm doing a similar build! Thanks for the video.

[@lewiswesson2163]

Nice set up man! I have a similar one, but this is the route I want to go! I have a 2019 F350 with 20” Fuel Cleavers and Nitto Trail Grapplers! Also have an 2020 Eagle Cap 1165. And.... a 5000watt inverter run to island to run coffee maker and satellite box. I’ve watched your other solar/inverter videos. Totally cool!!!

[@Tlicious726]

I have the stock MRAP aluminum rims and I balanced them alone without any tire with stick on weights. Worked well with the Perelli P22s

[@free_lance_living]

I have stock aluminum mrap wheels to. Did you use the Hutchison bead lock bands inside the tires to pinch the bead of the tire up against the wheel so it holds air? Was told I have to do that or have the wheel lip machined down to fit the bead of a 335/80r20 since mrap wheels are made for a 395/85r20 that has a taller bead.

[@jackryan4313]

@@free_lance_living yes, the wheels need to be remachined or you need bead locks. DBL Design does this to all of the wheels they do so beadlocks aren't needed. Even without them, the wheels and tires perform very very well

[@zackbussey9874]

How are the Perelli P22s performance on the road - descent tread life? Did they measure a true 41" x 12.5"? I am thinking about putting them on my truck. Any info would be appreciated. Thx

[@Tlicious726]

Zack Bussey they seem great. Just kinda loud.

[@limbandtreeremoval]

Does anyone suggest 365 vs 335? I figured im not going to upgrade front axle, truck is 4x4 5500 Chevy Might even have D80 truck was upgraded, just not 100% @@jackryan4313

It's not a mistake, more like learning curve 👍🏻

[@Robert-ex2qp]

Thanks for sharing The Good Bad and Ugly 👍 I am waiting on my IBSP permit and am looking into a VIAIR compressor. I have an F-250 with 265/75R16 E tires at 85psi and was wondering if you still use the same VIAIR? I want to deflate to 15psi and air up to 70 and think an onboard setup to get it done in a reasonable amount of time is the only way.

[@NJRenewableEnergy]

Actually, I try not to use the VIAIR system. It’s a fantastic back up, but takes a long time going to the filling station works vastly better particularly if you get two people one on each side filling at the same time. Still not a bad idea to have it.

[@NJRenewableEnergy]

That all said with regular tires, not super singles it’s probably not an issue.

[@qrs3658]

wow super nice. i love these tires. i got a 1999 f350 dually that i wanna do a single conversion to. did you have to use any special adapters or wheel hub?

[@NJRenewableEnergy]

Stazworks sold me the aluminum wheel. They make adapters for your particular set up.

[@qrs3658]

@@NJRenewableEnergy thank you for the update

[@shayfamily]

I want to do the same but also want to be prepared for the change in fuel consumption. How did it change? I want to be able to drive cross country.

[@NJRenewableEnergy]

I’d say similar on highway. Maybe slightly lower in City.

[@justinsweeney220]

I'll be looking at 41s soon, thanks for the details. I'll be on an F-550, do have to make sure aluminum can handle the weight but better braking distance would be huge. Enjoy

[@張明安-o5z]

Have you used the Speedometer Calibration Module? Which brand is better?

[@mnnsteve]

Great video, Questions 1) what are you airing down to on soft beach sand ? 2) in the video 1 person lifted & put the MPTs onto the hubs...how much does the wheel & MPT combo weigh ?

[@NJRenewableEnergy]

35 lbs. 200lbs. He’s a big boy. Look thru my videos. Go over entire set up

[@zackbussey9874]

How are the MPT81 335/80R20 continentals holding up? Still happy with them? Did you notice a big reduction in MPGS? Thanks

[@alphatruckhouse8223]

Thanks ! are those beadlock wheels ? ~peace~

[@landyandy9617]

Are you running any lift ? I understand that both Buckshot & DBL run 2 - 3” of lift. Looking to build similar when I retire in a couple of years time. Thanks

[@defekticon]

Can stazworks build these in 8 lug for a 350? I want to convert my F-350 dully to super singles on 40's. Not really concerned with the weight capacity so much as the off road capabilities. My flatbed/camper setup will likely be a pop-up.

[@NJRenewableEnergy]

Yes.

[@CompoundKodiak4x4]

16k have you hit the scales? what did you drop the pressure to on the beach?

[@marlonhernandez706]

Did you get tpms light for having 4 tires only?

[@NJRenewableEnergy]

Initially I did not, but after having a blowout we did. 😀

[@bakervinci163]

Wait. I am hearing the Dead in the back ground ? I apologize for my comment about the music in the other video.

[@iancameron5724]

Hey. Why does everyone swap to singles? I was hoping to level kit my f 550 and put some semi aggressive 35's on it. Truck camper on the flat deck. 4x4 yes, off road capable, yes. Not extreme though. Even video on here has singles. Why? Thank you. Ian.

[@512undertaker]

do you manually lower the air pressure for this setup or do you have an onboard air management

[@NJRenewableEnergy]

Manual.. but now I switched to Timbrens

[@jimmiller4608]

Did you have stazworks put the tires and wheels on? What about the fox shocks and rear bag support? Also what size of wheels are those?

[@NJRenewableEnergy]

All work was done in NJ. Wheels are 20x10s

[@kevinclark6289]

Do you carry a spare tire or no and if no any concerns in not doing so?

[@dixiemae5042]

Oh I use centramatics as well with my current 19.5 Alcoas. They work awesome 👍🏻👍🏻

[@mrsportfish8987]

I have a 1965 F500 NAPCO 4x4 with a GVW of 20k. I'm seriously looking to ditch the original 20" widowmaker wheels and go military 6x8.75x20 with these tires.

[@celestepalm6949]

How many lbs can those rear tires carry each? It's insane you can carry an *Eagle Cap* on a _SRW_ truck! Is the truck gas or diesel? I know you want off-road capability but isn't a dually safer for a camper that *huge?*

[@NJRenewableEnergy]

Tires carry ballpark of 7800 lbs per tire. Diesel.

[@celestepalm6949]

@@NJRenewableEnergy Impressive. One would also think steel wheels offer more support than aluminum, too.

[@sandieman]

Do you keep a spare? If so, where?

[@NJRenewableEnergy]

No spare. No space.

[@brandon1566]

What adaptors did you need for these to fit?

[@NJRenewableEnergy]

They come w the wheel. Stazworks

[@coltonhawkins1316]

How much did just the wheel setup cost

[@phototempo]

How much pressure on the road and on the beach? thank you!

[@NJRenewableEnergy]

80 to 90 on HWY. 35 front 40 rear on the beach.

[@urhiredhr421]

Happy for you! One downside, I would not like the excessive tire noise on the highway yet I suspect you could use ear plugs for some peace and quiet. Great rig!

[@NJRenewableEnergy]

Not really that bad. Yes louder than 19.5 tires. but for most driving its really not that big a deal. Most local driving isn't bad and long distance you have windows closed and radio on. After the 3 drive around, you don't even notice.

[@kosalthoeun9653]

How much for the new complete upgrade set up??

[@NJRenewableEnergy]

@@kosalthoeun9653 to hire someone. Prob. Ball park of 18k. Material. Prob 9k.

[@carmas54]

You should down load the Conti specs which tells you what speeds you should not go over with these tires. The Conti spec will also tell you what psi to set the tires are based on for the weight you’re carrying per axle for your safety and life of the tire. FYI I have 20k on my tires and I have been cross country twice

[@jackryan4313]

Idk if their specs can be trusted or not, but I know for a fact that the MPT81 335/80R20 continentals can safely travel above 100mph. I don't remember at what load you'd enter into the dangerous zone with those speeds, but they can do 100mph.

[@carmas54]

@@jackryan4313 i'm sure Conti's legal department had to sign off on their chart

[@jackryan4313]

@@carmas54 my bad, I worded my statement incorrectly The tires can do over 100. They just can't at max capacity

[@tincanlife]

Did you have centramatics on the steel wheels?

Yes

[@speedracer3104]

Camper fits like a glove, everything looks just right!! Watched another video and that set up looked horrible, camper did not fit that newer f450....19.5 looked whimpy also..

[@dixiemae5042]

I wanna do something similar to my 5500

[@1bushwiser]

what's the point of hauling around the spare tire? I noticed on the PT 1 video, you still had it mounted. that would seem like a no brainer, chuck the spare it is literally dead weight. you're not able to use it, and you can't put a 41" tire up there so idk, to me it seemed like a candidate for weight reduction. nice setup! :)

[@NJRenewableEnergy]

The thought is that in an emergency. IE. get out of the woods. Down a fire lane to main road etc. It would be very unbalanced, but likely better than nothing.

[@jollyjrog3r]

How much did they cosy

[@NJRenewableEnergy]

a lot, entire set up might be 15K installed

[@greg167]

Do you have a higher payload weight now of so how much ?

[@NJRenewableEnergy]

I would think no.

[@antn8387]

hows the 6.4 powerstroke treatin ya?

[@NJRenewableEnergy]

No issues. Always do oil changes at around 2500 miles. Important.

[@raginroadrunner]

The frames in these trucks are not big enough to support the weight. Ford got really cheap with frames in the last 15 years. keep an eye on it for cracks right behind the cab. Inspect with high intensity light once a month.

[@sonitx]

Total cost range for your final setup?

[@NJRenewableEnergy]

I think it can fluxuate from state to state. And even truck to truck. The wheels and tires cost money, but it can be all the upgrades and modifications to make it work that are equally expensive. I would expect to pay somewhere from 9k to 17k.

[@sonitx]

@@NJRenewableEnergy Thank you!

[@Lost_Ham]

How much lift to fit those tires?

[@NJRenewableEnergy]

2 1/2 level kit front. Extra springs in rear. Both you need to trim wheel wells on both.

[@Lost_Ham]

@@NJRenewableEnergy I had planned on trimming but wasn’t sure how little of a lift I could get away with. Thank you for the reply.

[@thereefaholic]

Too bad the state of New York won’t let you put anything bigger than 33 inch tires on. Would love to get them

[@NJRenewableEnergy]

wow, didn't know that. If you have a diesel truck do you avoid inspection?

[@thereefaholic]

Any vehicle that drives on the beach is subject to inspection. Mostly on weekends. But I never seen them measure tires. They usually look for the required equipment

[@ddev7376]

Over 100mph? Aren't those tires only speed rated for up to 70 mph?

[@NJRenewableEnergy]

I said you could in theory. I said I don’t. However they are rated for load. If truck was empty. You could go faster.

[@jackryan4313]

They can do over 100mph. NJRE is right. They're rated at load Put it this way: what tires does the Devel 60 use? Pretty sure they don't change them to different tires when they hit up the drag strip...

[@joshdubeau5037]

Man I got lots of questions. Do you have an email I can reach you. I got a 6.4 F450 with a truck camper. That I’m looking doing this same setup!

[@raginroadrunner]

Lower ball joints will fail in no time. New joints are $1200 up.

[@ncharp]

Where? You can get heavy duty ball joints (all four) for much less than that high quality, stockers are less than half that price and the f450 ball joints are double the size of a 350 ball joint.

[@bakervinci163]

I would prolly get a Highway tire. I’m just going from boat ramp to boat ramp

[@henrivanbemmel]

If you have a problem somewhere, who could possibly fix these? If you are not going off road then why not save all that money and drive with the 19.5's? Lost of folks do it. I don't understand this.

[@NJRenewableEnergy]

Can't air down 19.5, We go on beach all the time. They handle better, truck rides better, looks better. If you have a problem, which is very rare since it sort of a military set up yes, you need to call a truck service to bring out new tire. It's a vacation truck, not rushing to appointments and schedules.
