    Sorry for the late response.... but yes, its like running 3" BS. I assume that is hard to find unless going with steal wheel or recentered humvee wheel:D

    since ive been on here ive went to 37's nds its been a lot of $$$. I think in about a half a month ill test the waters and try to sell the truck

    What do you dislike so much about the 37s? Couldn't you drop back to 35s if you wanted to?

    Wishing I had more to update. Still waiting on my Marlin Crawl box, so things have been at a standstill. Never did get my rear bumper done either :frusty: I did however get my 39.5 Iroks, and hope to start my tubbing project in the next few weeks. Though theres no way Ill be able to run them without the crawl box.

    Project fender clearance has commenced... 39.5's on the floor
    Pictures to follow in the next few days. Today I removed both fenders, and pulled back the carpet.

    I'm thinking with my 4:88's to get a set of 35" street tires :) with the 37's it's still a little under geared compared to stock/ speedo is still a little off

    This tubbing has been a long ass process. Im a week into it. Got the right side done, and should have the driver side finished up tomorrow. So I should have it out and driving in a couple days. Theres still a chance this might not work....

    Well sorry for the long wait on this... I will say this right up front that this was not easy. It took me a week to do, and I was stressed nearly the whole time.

    removing the fenders made getting to everything easier. Though remembering where all the bolts go was fun. After that I had to expose the pinch welds that I had already beaten down. as you can see I've already relocated the body mount, and cut once before.

    I tried the best I could to open everything up by drilling out the pinch welds before i cut.
