    I have a 3” lift and looking for some bigger tires and was wondering if there is anything else I need to do before I throw some bigger tires on it.

    4 run, 2 don't
    What kind of lift?

    I'd be worried about that first, especially if it's a suspension lift and OEM UCA's; bad alignment for days.

    Your axles will hate you too if it's a suspension lift and you've got a 4x4.

    Like, so many.
    You're going to need to do some cutting, my friend. And I would think a re-gear.

    Lots of good info in this thread


    I had to tub the firewall back about 3" at the bottom of the door and I cut 1.75" out of the fender. One season of hard wheeling on 35s and stock gears killed my clutch which had about 50k mi on it.
