I have just added some more lift to my truck this weekend and have a few questions. I have an 03 2wd 4.2 and i am able to fit 35s now with my 3" body, 3" spindle, 1.5" leveling kit, and 2" blocks out back and was wondering if i could run 35s with stock gears?? What are the cons of doing this?? If the cons are tooo bad i can always run 33s and have a little bit more flex room ha

Are your stock gears 3:55? With a v6 your going to know the 35's are on there unless you change your gears. Now I'm sure you could run them but don't expect a speed demon....

any ideas on how much to regear to 4:10s? keep in mind it's 2wd. i prob will just go with 33s just because i prob won't regear. they will still look a little small but i think that ok vs the power/gas/torpue lossssss! lol

I ran 35 xterranes and it did better than 33 boggers in daily driving just FYI.

Depends on alot of things, personally I wouldn't regear.



my 33 boggers, did better then the 35's in the mud!
