I'm running 32 11.50 15 on my stock 89 ranger 4x4 with 3.73 gears d28 front and the 7.5 in the rear I'm wondering if I put my 3 inch body lift and do some trim the fenders can I run 35's I would wanna run 9.50 but all I can find is 12.50 anyone know what the fit would be like or look like I don't care about rubbing when turning I'll make stops I'll give up some turning to run 35 for the ground clearance but I'm worried about front d28 them half shafts are tiny and the u joints are smaller input would help
 
I've been running bias 35s for 5 months and no issues yet with the same axles and a 2.3l also didn't lift at all to fit them just lots of trimming and beating with a big hammer. Here is a pic

Hope this helps

to that i would add ttb 150/e series arms and some two over or well worn 150 coils, and 2wd tib 150 leaf springs out back.

that would really make bannermans, and your truck work excellent with 35 in tires.

relocate the radius arm brackets rearward to accommodate the 150 arms and some camber bushings to deal with the coils. the 150 leaf springs out back work out real good on an ext cab.
 
I'm in the process of saving for a d35/8.8 swap. Will be doing a complete rebuild on both axles, gears, lockers and all the other bs so I don't have to pull it back apart later on
