32's with 3 in. bd

[i_gots_to_4x4]

08 sport with prekey mod. am kicking around the idea of a 3 in body lift, but would just go as big as 32's for fear of losing too much performance with a 373 rear end. would they fill up the wheel well enough to keep it from looking freaky, and is anyone running this setup? and pics would be great

if its the 3.0 i wouldnt go any bigger than 30s on the 3.73s. trust me

ok i got a 4.0 and 3inc bd. and i have been wanting some 32s too. how hard is it to change the rear axle gears from stock to 4 10

 

[red93terror]

its not that its hard, but you have to be extremely precise. you have to have micrometers to measure the shims and lash. if youre even .05 inches off itll eat itself. pm me and ill send you some stuff on how to do it yourself

Don't forget the front. And if your going to regear anyways, do it right and drop to at least a 4.56 or so. My 2000 is on a 3" body lift and 32" tires with 4.10 gears and it won't hardly get out of its own way. And the freeway is almost out of the question. I have a well used 3.0 though.

and as long as you have all those gears out, you might as well get a locker put in the rear axle at least. just my $.02
