JPF,
I want to see it. That's what I'm thinking about for mine too. You don't have any lift, other than the torsion crank?

saserby, yes just the t-bar crank. here are three photos.

first: stock(plus some mud haha)



second:level with the t-bar crank(stock tires)(oh and it had rained some lol)



third:level with 295/70/17 nitto terra grapplers



and just to answer some ?s that may come about...I DID get an alignment after the t-bar crank with the new tires, the tires rub nowhere(even at full lock they are about 1/2 inch from the upper control arm), and the truck sits level while I did not crank the bars all the way up.

I have those same tires in a 265 for the winter on stock wheels and they go awesome in snow/mud/dirt, blast the bottom half of my truck. You should max the front and put a 2" block in the back....

Looks really good with new tires. Hope you enjoy the grapplers, I've had them for about three years now and still love them

Yep, I like it. Nice truck JPF150! I had Terra Grapplers on my last truck and loved them. The only decision is what size, and I think that just got solved.

Anyone have or know who has 295's or 33's with a 3" body lift? I'm wondering if the tires will look small again with a lift. I see a lot of guys running 35's with a 3" lift.

Thanks everyone! I took them through a little mud/dirt/field today and they were a WHOLE lot better than the slicks haha. Saserby, Im glad that helped you out. It took me a while to decide as well. I would also love to see the pics of these with a 3" body lift, because I might do one this summer.
