[QUOTE="dave_shelby, post: 1850459, member: 22579"] I have a Ford 8240 4WD with 23.1x34 rear tires and 14.9x28 front tires. They are well worn and I would also like to change out the rears to 18x38 or 20x38 as I have some 16x38 rims setting around. I have read all about keeping the front-rear ratio the same, so with either change I would be off some. Now I have never seen another 8240/8340 with rears like this, which makes me wonder if a previous owner swapped them out them earlier. My local Ford/NH dealer (Forrester) also claims there was no such factory configuration. Any thoughts on this? Also would there be any signs when running in 4WD if a tractors front-rear ratio is off?
