you wont need to index it i think you should be fine

im not sure about the lift, but i know its scary when that thing comes flyin up on your back bumper goin down the highway! i was in my lowered dakota going about 80 when the guy came out of no where on my tail and flew by me. must have been going close to 100. i guess he didnt have his speedo corrected or something!

it looks to me like another guy said that he has the wiplash kit with a body lift and coil spacer.

I wouldn't think you would have ny problems rolling 38's on 8 inches man. you may just have to settle for 13.50's or 14in. for width cuz my 37x13.50's rub at full lock on the driver's side front.

40x13.5 on 20s will be my next tire. I'll just research the backspacing before ordering the wheels. My 37s wouldn't rub if I jumped this thing off a cliff. Wound up with 9.25" of front lift after it was all said and done. And some people still claim the Rize is only a 6" lift. Idiots!!! Got a set of Bilstein 5100s and stud to eye front brackets waiting to be installed once my Thuren shackles come in. Hopefully my next mod will be '04-'05 quadcab 5.9 4x4 to park beside it.

your truck would look sick if somehow you coould squeeze 40" toyos under it on some of those 22x14 xd diesels

kinda like that black truck that top gun customz is using to advertise

alot of you guys on here must be high rollers to be able to afford the toyo m/t, not everyone has 3,000 to drop on wheels and tires. In the size you are talking about i myself would run the super swamper just because its alot more tire and more side wall its looks better imo

i saw that dodge on mautofied.com a while back

How could that thing possibly drive good?

Every vehicle I have ever owned since I was 16, and I'm 29 now, has been lifted.
(well 8 of them...only the trucks/Jeeps)

I learned early on you sacrifice ALOT to have a tall lift. Even if you do everything right, your severly limiting what you can do with the truck. Even if you can still do things witht the truck, it wouldn't do them as well.

Highly Lifted trucks are awesome, they look great, but thats about the only thing they will be great at!


just my .02

if you thnk about how long they outwear the other tires though, theyre worth the money

and theyre insanely quiet, i was doing 120 earlier this evening(not that that was smart) and they were barely louder then the engine!!!
