I'm probably going to get mine from National Tire and Wheel for $1500. I'm not sure yet though. What size tires are you planning to put on it?

Well I already have a 3"body lift, and 33's on my truck right now. I really want to get the 37x12.50R17 BFG A/T KO's, but they are advertised for 308 dollars at 4 wheelparts. I am a college student and that much for a tire is way out of my league, so either 35 BFG A/T or the 36 Parnelli jones M/T.....Got any suggestions for me!

I'm planning on getting the 5" RCD, 3" PA, and 1.5" Torsion Bar lift. I will run 38.5" Swamper Radials. We'll see how it works

ad4x4ofrd,
If you are going to go with the Parnelli Jones Dirtgrips in the 36x14.50's at $299.00 a pop, why not go another $36.00 more if you really want those BFG AT's?
