ive got a few questions

so ive been workin on project blue goose my 79 custom deluxe 10 and ive been having some questions that need answering

1st-i like mud tires with some grip couse they look real cool and i was wondering would a set of 31X10.50 15s fit under my wheel well with out much rubbing i know they will fit in the back but im not so sure about the front

2nd ive redone my brakes all the way around and the pedal is still spongy so i know it needs to be blead, but this truck is a manual brake truck and all it has is a push rod going to the master cyender and when i bench blead the master cylender i used the old push rod (becouse i had already installed the new push rod that came with the master cylender) and the old one kinda locked down in there and i cant get it out how do i remove the old push rod? also would the 1/2 inch difference between the old push rod and the new push rod make a difference in pedal travel?

thanks for your imput guys
josh

Re: ive got a few questions

31x10.5s will fit no problem. I've had sets of 32x11.50r15's before on 2wd trucks and they didn't scrub either

31's on a 77 2wd



32's on the front of an 87 2wd. 33's on the rear but they scrub on the front. the 32's don't though.
