issues with fitting 36"s will be rubbing up front and what wheel you use. you wont want to go much past a 12" wide tire on a stock 7" wide wheel. the rear should fit them fine

back space. 3x3??? yes krylon fusion satin black works wonders with plastic on the truck.

what about nerf bars? i want a set of 6 step n-fab ones but they are 600 bucks. quickest mods are the gotts intake mod (search for it) and getting a custom tune

umm...not to bust your ***** but taking your truck to a "universal" shop, especially one run by an import lover, is probably not the best idea. you might want to look for a Ford only authorized dealer.
