Yep..they will fit fine on the wheel but they will wear a bit odd. Some brands If you run the recommend air pressure the tire gets a bit of a crown and prematurely wears the center, the more aggressive the tire the more pronounced the problem. I’ve ran 36x12.5x16 on stock steel 7.5” Superduty...
Most definitely , unless you’ve got money to burn a unit like my 1250 is ridiculous for home use. I was cutting fish plates and patch sections for a local heavy equipment repair welder , the side money made it possible to buy a $4K machine.
I’ve got a Hypertherm 1250 g3 which is complete overkill for my garage these days but I use to make money with it back when I had a track burner. Sold the track system when I had big ideas of buying a cnc table but life and my full time job got in the way. I’m the guy all my buddies go to when...
I had a Tommy 1,500 on my 1 ton dump..everything you said is true and one other con is the 500+ lbs my lift weighed which subtracted from my hauling capacity. It had a 6.2 diesel in it that was very underpowered and a quarter ton of extra weight is very noticeable in a 175 hp truck.
With that...
To run 35’s on a GM truck built in the last 15 or so years you might need more lift or be prepared to do some trimming. Tires that big on a stock geared gas truck will make for lazy performance and crappy mpg.
I watched his video and looks like the left and right "halves" are mirror image...it has 2 pistons at TDC at a time ..it would explain why it doesn't sound like a CBX.
Start by checking the coupling between the pump and motor...a sudden stop in operation like you described sounds like a mechanical failure not low fluid.
