I believe a 31 10.5 will fit but may be close off road , a 30 .9.50 or a 33 9.50 will clear on a stock 7" wheel

Think it is a 32x9.50 that will fit without rubbing.  10.50 definitely too wide

I welded my driver side window frame back together last weekend. Drove it to work this morning and it's nice not to have the top of the window flopping around anymore. 8)

I went ahead and purchased the billet aluminum front and rear light trim kits. I will post it when it is done.

I am still perplexed on why these LED brake lights do not work while all the others do. I can get some to work when the head lights aren't on but not when they are on. The brake lights  and turn lights do not work. I know there are other flashers in the vehicle. Maybe swapping those all out? Any suggestions? Now it is a matter of pride and I want to figure something out. Hmmmmmmmm

Thanks for the tire info.  Where would I find 32 9.5 15s?

Light problem.  First question is have you tested the new LED lights out of the vehicle and if so do they work.  Most lights have a 3wire plug and the center is the ground.  So hook the center to a the ground post on the battery and touch a short piece of wire from the positive side to one side than the other but not at the same time.  Caution do not let the pos side touch the neg side.  It could get exciting.  One side should be brighter than the other. 
Do this than post he results.

I should add that I have not looked at my bronco light plug ever.  But the newer cars I work on mostly work this way.

$500 later, I've got a rebuilt C4 and new torque converter.  Hoping to install next week or the week after.  I need to finish the fuel line replacement before I move on to the transmission.  Just waiting on a 3.8-16 tap I ordered to come in.

Gary, Mike said to talk to him before we put it back in.  Something to do with alignment and dowels...

Let me know when you start putting everything back in. I want more familiarity with the mechanical side of it.

I did install all of the billet light housings. They match up quite well for my bronco. Make it look a little more current and matches paint fairly well.

In regards to the LED lights. the front and both side LEDs work great. The only problem I have is with the brake light LEDs. I have installed a new flasher and even tried "resistors" and it all works the same. When the headlamps aren't on everything works as it should. When I turn head lights on the brake lights just stay constantly lit and do not blink when blinker is on to either side and if regular lamp is in it works as it should and blinks.

There is another flasher right next to the one I have replaced. Anyone know what that one is for? Maybe i replace that too and see what happens?

The other flasher relay  is for the emergency flashers. I would try changing that one. maybe you will get lucky

I will try that when i get home. I did purchase another flasher just  to try. I am not even sure if I have emergency flash capability anyway. How do you turn yours on? Is it through the headlight switch? If it is another button i don't have that installed on mine.

it would be on the dash normally but may have a switch on the steering column
