Poorly.
My wife's 10 year old Honda Accord with 14" tires had better control in town. I even had 350# of sand bags in the back of the Ranger and I still couldn't start off without spinning my 32" MT... It was about the same with my 31" AT. Graceful was not how I describe it

Weird, I never had a problem with my 32 ATs with no weight in the bed.

wow thanks man feels good to be sum1s background...

3" spindle lift
2" lift coils
2" aal
2" shackle
1.5" block
3" body

that makes 8/8.5 inches of lift on 33x12.5 bfg mudders

and a 7.5 with 4.56s... the 2.5 does fine it was just a stupid mistake by me thats all
