Not yet. Going to wait till after I get back from Canada. Just ordered my leveling kit the other night, so it should be here when I get back.

I had a 2 1/2 inch kit on my '04 but went with a 2 inch on the '11. Any plans for larger tires?

Either 33" Mud Grapper or Trail Grapper

The Trailgrapplers would be a better choice of the two. Quieter on the highway and they'll last longer. Toyo MT's are a good tire also and since Toyo makes Nitto tires both are real good. Just remember mud tires are real heavy and may cause you to lose 2 to 3mpg.

I'm leaning more towards the Trail Grapplers. I heard the Mud Grapplers are loud.

I had a co-worker that had them on his F-150 and you could hear him coming from about a mile away. Sounded like a helicopter. They are some bad looking tires though and for a show truck or one that does a lot of offroading they are the tire to beat. Most are worn at 25k miles.

For the price they want for them, they should last for ever.

I've got close to 22k miles on my Terragrapplers and they're just starting to show a little wear. Ought to get 45 to 50k out of them easily if I keep them that long!!

I have about 21,000 on mine and they still look like new also. Kinda has me bummed though, I want to get 33" Trail Grapplers also but I want to wait until the Terra Grapplers wear out.
