yah u can fit 35's easy with that lift. i have alot of my friends that have fx4's that are 2003's and just crank their torsion bars and fit 35's with a little rubbing.

No, I only have 33's. I'll probably have to buy new tires next year and I'm thinking about going to 35's. It's a tight fit, but you can fit 35x12.50's on a 10 inch wide wheel with a 3 inch body lift. You can also, fit 35x12.50's on a stock 97-03 4x4, if you use the OEM wheels.

also as Wandell has suggested to me and I have heard from a few others don't waste your money on the new torsion keys just crank. Seems to be a better option.

So will 35's fit a two wheel drive with a 3" lift on AR767's in 16x8???

I'd stick with 33's on the 4x2.

but will the new torsion keys give you a little more than cranking the stockers all the way??

also does any one have a pic of a 3 inch body lift with 35's or 315's?

Yes, the aftermarket keys will give you a little more ride height. But they will give you a lot worse ride and a lot quicker CV joint wear.
