    No issues here after a year and some rather difficult trails.

    Aside from Monte and Mike, I don't know of any others that have had issues.

    Nope, although I think my tie rods are about due to be changed. There's a little slop in them. Steering rack and pump are factory as well - I was thinking about changing the fluid but if I do it'll probably start leaking with my luck.

    Might be worth jumping to this post directly and reading the posts before and after a bit.

    But this is the gist.

    Can't argue with that. I can definitely see why you say 35s aren't really worth it. Definitely makes me reconsider 35s since I'll be daily driving my truck for probably the next 5+ years.

    All I can really say is that I need more trail time, and maybe a trip to Moab, before I give 35s more thought.
