    17s for you b/c of the VSC. his 06 more than likely doesnt have it as it was a more rare option before 09

    Ok, I havent ridden in a truck with 35s so I was guestimating, but still if you had the cash regearing would be a good bet

    Yea bro i have the dirt logics, the ride really good, very impress with them. No regrets yet... the only regrets that i might have would be getting 35' Nitto Terra Grapplers... i only say that bc they are "Supposely" wider than the other 35s... so i rub pretty bad...even with major trimming

    lol..well those are both able to be remedied. do the body chop mod and then trim back the plastic inner fender at the back and knock down the pinchweld. i've already dont the first and need to do the second. it's the only place i rub left

    so looks like im try the body mount chop, i also noticed that its the worse when backing up.. i dont exactly know where its hitting bc no one is ever around me when i backup out a parking space since i normally back into them. any ideas?

    backing w/ wheel cut? could be either. crank the wheel all the way to the left and hop out and check the fender. if it's the body mount u can definately tell by how close the tire is.

    funny thing is it always happens when the wheel is turned all the way to the right, haven't tried it with the steering wheel all the way to the left yet. I am definitely going to try that in the morning!

    I ride with a buddy who has a 6 inch lifted taco
    it was 3 inches and he added a 6 inch fabtech lift to it and I even noticed a power drop. I say regear but dont expect your truck to be going fast and furious crazy fast. :)

    it's not the lift that causes the issue, its the size of the tires

    No problem at all. Well, yes , one it's rubbing when i do turns and hit something at the same time. Other than that is awesome..

    those are 35's???

    truck looks good man! I did everything jHodges told me except the body mount chop and the only time i rub is turning and hitting a bump. i want to do the body mount chop but my local shop refuses to do it bc they think it will cause my tires to hit my inner fender and crush in my panels....
