    cut the pitch welds and do the cab mount chop.
    i had to cut the cab mount with 285 and now that i run that 315s i had to cut the cab mount again but i have long travel suspension tho.

    I am guessing the long travel needs more cut away than than normal travel lift?

    no i would assume it would need less since the tire is farther out
    the tire sits closer to the cab mount when in stock position...if youre not going to be turning there youll be fine lol

    Cut the cab mount, flatten the pinch weld, and probably have to cut your fenders.

    I'm sure some locals would help ya. It's not bad. Cutoff wheel for the cab mount, sledge hammer for the pinch weld, and jigsaw for the fenders

    been searching the forum, is it necessary to cut the fenders? That I defiantly dont want to get into.

    You'll atleast have to cut the backs of them, and that's with aftermarket UCA's

    Assuming you get the 34s to fit, have you given any thought to re-gearing?

    not yet, beginning to think I may just go with 33's. As much as I want 34s, seems like more than its worth
