I will be able to show, 2" lift with 33's in then next couple of weeks. Since I was going up in Tire dia I wanted to maintain the wheel to top of wheel well gap, so I am going with a 2" also 33 is the largest tire I will ever be going on my 3.73 gears.

Nikko,

Without the lift, you will have to trim a little, but after that, they fit great. The tires on my truck are closer to 32.5", but close enough.

By the way, Nikko,

There is a sign here in the Sacramento Calif. area on Highway 50 that lists Ocean City MD as some 2,000 plus miles away. Is there a sign in Ocean City listing Sacramento?

Just curious.

F150BOB,
The same sign is in OC. Its at the beggining of Rt. 50 right in Ocean City that says Sacramento is like 2400 miles or so away. Thanks for all your help

thomasjs,

I have the 3.73 LS in my 99 f150 4x4 as well. I installed the 3" body lift and 35s on it and I will tell you what, it still performs great with the 3.73. Yes there was a noticeable difference after installing the tires but the main thing was that it downshifts a bit more frequently when going up hills. I think the most credible difference was due to the greater weight of the 35s, it is real noticeable on braking. The acceleration is still great and better than ANY 4x4 pickup I ever have driven.
