New Tire Size found 235's to 245's
Not a huge difference. 255/80 R17 is a 33.1" vs 245/75 R16 is a 30.5" so axle difference 1.3 inches taller at the axle. This is comparable to 285/75 R16 which is a 32.8" for height just 30mm narrower.

It is what it is. Like my truck is starting to seem a bit war-torn and battered. 351k miles and still rolling.

I'm going to say around 80% is your starting point.

New Tire Size found 235's to 245's
Just like I said before a smaller footprint will drive down and grab the pavement. Where a wide face tire will jump up on top of what ever material you running across. I personally love whizzing down the highway at a comfortable speed in the dead of winter as I watch all the wider tire and lift trucks struggle to hold there own on the snow. I'll admit though in mud or soft ground the wider tires do actually work out the best. Question is how many people drive on soft mud every day a majority of the time?

@Tractorman so how are you liking the 245's now? Thanks for the photos they don't look much different than the 235's I'm currently running. Here shortly you guys will see my 215's on the 1996 Dodge.

Surging and Turbo Bark under heavy throttle
Absolutely... You should of never installed them. Nothing should be tied to the batteries. You Accessories should be wired to the PDC BATT terminal. Then after the W-T mod then the alternator lead will be gone too so that could be heavy load lug and its even fused for 140 Amps.

ABS kicking it when coming to slow stop
Move down look at SKF or Timken bearings. Timken is what most people search for. The last two I didn't have choice I had to have bearings right away being I was broke down away from home. NAPA had the parts but like I said for $260 a bearing.

Always a catch... https://www.oreillyauto.com/detail/b/pioneer-inc--4618/unclassified-16437/154fbd6278d2/pioneer-inc-metal-lock/t51444/5585201

Surging and Turbo Bark under heavy throttle
Yes. Manual transmission since we don't have torque converter it comes out as an unsteady throttle or cruise control. I've seen mine set for 65 MPH throttle up to 75 MPH and drop randomly to 45 MPH and start over.

ABS kicking it when coming to slow stop
Unit bearings are expensive at about 260 per bearing with sensors. Last time I did unit bearings it was a total of $520 for both. Sensors are expensive too.
-
Problem solved
Because there is an internal issue of the module most likely and the speed information isn't passing to the CCD bus to be received by the ECM, PCM and Cluster.

Weird issue with brake pedal feel and PS pump
You are correct. They can't share fuilds.

Locking issues of the transmission... How to test for excessive AC noise... How to fix the problem Orignal article... Then the simple method of the above...

Problem solved
Why wait... You can still drive without the module just the speedometer doesn't work. Also you'll need to unhook your grid heater the since there is no speed it won't cancel the grid heater at 25 MPH like typically. https://modulemaster.com/rebuilds/shop/brakes/abs-modules/abs-kh-dodge/

ABS kicking it when coming to slow stop
Could be either front or rear. The easy way to tell. Rear sensor will make the speedometer do weird things like stay at ZERO for while then jump to speed this is a rear speed sensor issue. Front sensor need to be replaced as a pair. Check your wheel bearing at the same time if the bearing(s) are bad replace as a pair. Typically if one goes the other is shortly behind it. The sensors have to be replaced as a pair because 99% if you replace just one the other one will not match because of wear.
-
Problem solved
Neither. Only relies on the 3 speed sensors if braking is normal then all 3 sensors will slow together. But like in a panic stop on slick road one wheel will slide then the speed on that wheel will be greatly lower so the ABS system back pumps the pedal prevent any further pressure applied till the speeds equalize again. You need to send in your ABS module to Module Masters in Moscow, ID they can rebuild that module and fix that problem.

Welcome to the family here. Just jump in and ask your question. I'm sure someone will jump in and help.

Rattlesnake Fire, Idaho - 2018
Just like the extensive studies of prescribed burning. Then the burn typically gets out of control to some extent and typically burns more ground than expected, end up crowning and taking out a few trees, or just be plain annoying by flooding the valleys with smoke and making it difficult to breathe or work. Personally, this Forest Circus folks and their studies are an outright joke. Wish good ol' Trump would clean this part of the swamp out next because there is a lot of wasteful spending here. Another secret I know. When I mentioned road closing and such. There is a trick to this. Now if USFS (Forest Circus) closes a road by goat hump, gate or any means to prevent travel. What they are supposed to do is remove that road and the funds are reduced. They are not removing the roads from the maintenance list and continue to collect funds for all road and pocket the money for their little studies and other wasteful spending. I'm sure some of the smoke jumpers that jump in on this fire and the equipment I'm sure there will be a pit dug and bunch of stuff buried like usual. (More Forest Circus Waste).
