The truck is running 35's. I am curious about what mods they did to accommodate the tire size in such harsh conditions.

Grabbed this still from the video. Looks like maybe a perch collar? Or else they machined some custom shock bodies. Hard to tell exactly what I'm looking at here. The distance between the Live Valve and spring perch definitely looks longer than on a stock truck.

I also remember reading that for this year the internal valving and Live Valve mapping were optimized for Finke.

I like this desktop background picture of them passing the chevy

That Ranger didn’t just pass the Chevy… it literally flew past it. That truck isn’t even on the ground in that photo! 😃

I want to know the wheel setup - they ran 35" tires without issue.

My understanding is that you have to at the very least remove the crash bars to fit 35" tires and of course a lift.
