2nd Gen 4x4 35s 3" Lift w/o BODY LIFT

I may do it again.

 

Sweet, homers comin to Moab

 

I said Maybe.

 

You ain't talkin your way out of this.

Bring Mrs Homer, tell her were setting up a spa day for the wives one day.

 

I like my 4.88's to but the biggest reason for going 4.88 over 4.56 is that I plan on going to 37's. If I wasn't going bigger I would have gone 4.56 for sure.

 

I went 4.56 and think it's great with 35's I never thought I'd want to go to 37's but it seems that 37's are the new 35, damnit.

 

Last weekend wheeling with Jon @ AllPro was pretty cool, not to mention he's a great guy.
His rig "brownie" on 37's with the AllPro 2+ kit actually cleared better in the wheel wells and firewall better than mine did on 35's with stock length arms. The AllPro kit pushes the tires forward just a touch (3/4"ish) and is a really great way to go for anyone wanting to run bigger tires.

 

There comes a time where you've got to draw the line - at least for me.
Anthony just bought Wyatt's 36" TSL's and we'll be doing the angle grinder dance getting them to fit this spring...
For me 35x12.5x17 is the right size for the truck.
The gearing works well and once the crawlbox mod is done I'm going to call the major mods complete.
There's a ton of little stuff I've neglected to get done anyway...
Aux reverse lights would be nice...

 

Have to agree, sooner or later it has to stop. Seems like 35's are a good fit for most IFS weekend warriors.

 

37s are gay

 

37's are on the absolute limit for the stock rear axle and front diff. If I start breaking things I will go down a size again. My truck is a dc lb so the extra break over always helps.

 

If I go larger than 35's the truck goes SAS & I have the mechanical skills of a 3 year old when it comes to shit like that so I don't see it happening.

 

Just beef up that front end!

 

Because when I'm cruising at 70 I'm not really cruising at 70.

 

That's because your tires are larger.

 

truth

 

My speedo is almost exactly 10% off with 488&35&auto. 50 on speedo is 55 actual. 100 is 110. Etc..

 

It is one hell of a ride, but it is such an amazing place!

That is such a scary statement. I don't think I would go 37s just because I feel like that is so much strain on the components.

Same here! Makes for easy math.

 

^Exactly^

Regear had nothing to do with correcting the speedo. Auto's are based on wheel speed which will directly correlate to tire size.

 

4.56 and 37s are fine on my truck plenty power and it still stops pretty dang good. But then again I should have gone 37 12.5 17 instead I went 37 13.5 17 so I have a little more tome to clearance for but the look of it is awesome
