Do I have room on a 1947 3600 for 235/70/17 tires? Stock ride height, stock suspension....

You should have room since that tire is only 30" tall. The only thing that you might run into trouble with would be your offset


Liquidated my projects
Now looking for a decent '47-'55.1 3100, 3600, or 3800

I would say yes. Im running 225/75/16s on ford wheels on my 3/4 ton and i have plenty of room. Only place i had clearance issues was from the actual wheel offset. Was just rubbing the outer tie rod when turned. Some trimming and a spacer fixed that. Many others have run into the same problem on the site. All is well now👍

My spare is a Dodge 3/4 ton 8 bolt rim and it clears the tie rods no problem. Mind you my truck is a 60's model and might have more clearance to start with .


good planning is no substitute for dumb luck
