The book for my ranger states that using a bigger than specified tire can make the Traction Lok rear axle less effective. The spec. tires are 235's I need new tires and I was planning on getting 245's. My truck has 214000 miles on it and is in quite good condition. What do the larger tires do to the rear axle to make it less effective?

235 to 245 is not much difference.but will pull a little harder since there's only a 4 or 6 cyc your pulling with.The larger tire size difference will make it a little harder to stop.as there turning slower your speedo will be slower than your going not much.look on tire rack they have a speck sheet that will you can check both tire size.
