To to the Modified Tech section, there's an entire thread dedicated to lift and tire setups. It's a sticky
I ran 4.5 lift with long arms on 235/75's for a while. You will be fine.

OK I just installed a hesco water pump and high flow thermostat housing and it's still running a bit hot, 215-220. I burped the system and everything but now it's leaking from the radiator cap which is new but wasn't leaking till I replaced the water pump. It stops leaking if I put pressure on the radiator cap. Is it a bad radiator cap or can I just bend the tabs slightly to get it to fit tighter?
