Is it a leafsprung model or independent front end? And is it a SWB (rear wheel arches right next to doors) or LWB (extra foot between doors and arches) Also does it have any lift?

Sorry it's a 96 lwb independent front sus.
It is jacked up on torsion bars, 3 inch lift spring on rear and 2 inch body lift

Ok 33's should fit you will need 15x8 rims with decent offset to clear chassis though. It will be slower but you can tweak it to get a bit more power.

As long as you are sensible they will be fine, just don't give it the beans at full lock. I have been running big tyres on mine for a while and not had any problems.

Hello,
Was just wondering what size tyres and rims i could fit to my fourtrak.
Been thinking of 31x10.50x15
Its a standard 1996 fieldman tdl f78 lwb.
If i tighten up torsion to front and get 2" coil lift for rear what would the max size be then and is it worth doing?

31's fit ok on a completely standard trak, little bit of rubbing off road but no real issues.
As far as what you could fit with a small lift...not so sure...but you'd probably get away with 33's?

Thanks for reply i might just try it with 31s i got 235/75/15 fitted now just they look a little small...
Does the back normally sit higher than the front? Just wondering if previous owner already has the 2" rear shocks on it as all the suspension is brand new ill put a pic on tomorrow after i get 1 in day light just seen 1 in supermarket and mine looks higher at the rear but it wasnt a commercial and mine is if that would make a difference.
