youll need to throw on a body lift to clear the tires, and also regear to a 4,56 or whats better would be a 4.88

if you can get the tires cheap get em and try it, but like morgan said i think you may need to add a little bit of a body lift. But hey, guys run 35's on their trucks here with just body lifts so...

I runb with a BL on 35s and I can`t flex out too much, so I could see 36`s being pretty damn tight.

no they dont.. trust me. they have superlifts with them if theyre 4x4, theyre sas'd, or they have spindles. he already has spindles so to fit his new tires all he has to do is regear and do a bl.

BD Lift and Maxed bars wont be able to flex much, just cut the fenders and re roll them.

he has an extra 3 inches to play with, cause of his spindles.

his 10" of lift sits the same as my 6.5"





look at the front tire vs the corner of the front fender. the rear is lower but thats my bad the leafs settled more than i expected them too.

yeah but with a SAS you can get a better/ lower lift for larger tires.
