3.5" up front? Did he hate ball joints or something?
With wide wheels and a level you are going to be doing a fair amount of trimming to clear those 35's. Your big problem will come at the rear of each front wheel well where the tires will rub up against the wheel well liner, fender flare and parts of the body.

Idk I have a 3" and hate ball joints. I hit the frame now but like I said I'm not cutting the truck all to pieces for em either. I'm looking at 20x10s in the future but not that wide.

Yea the stock looks really grown on me I hate to mess with it. Although it will have a 24" led light bar sometime the first of the year and hopefully some tow mirrors. I'm saving up for color shift halos and Harley Davidson head lights so I think it'll be about perfect then. But thanks buddy yours does too!

Yea I need them for the farm. Trucks so big I can't see our tobacco trailers behind us unless I look out the rear view (which is hit and miss due to tint) or if I pull doubles which takes way too long.

We'll lifted the rear back up last night so there's no more "lean" or "squat" whatever y'all prefer to call it. Looks way bigger now than I recall but I like it lol. That's the only picture I've got for now it looks like I'm taking her back stock.

Truthfully guys I'm digging this look. What y'all think? I'll be bored in a couple months so I'll do something else but for now it looks perfect to me. Super clean. So for now Ima leave it alone and get my friends truck right. She just bough an 06 fx4 black and white, I already tinted it and I plan on buying her a spacer for the front for Christmas since I can get one pretty cheap.
