Ha ha, with my complete lack of understanding of the process, I'm sure the results would be no different either way. I'd make sure some top shelf brews were at hand as a thank you at the very least.

NO problem, just let me know when and where.

Excited to see where the 33's and lead foot take you... Every time i think about cliffhanger I think about that pic of Ryan when you just got on it up that ledge, makes me laugh....

and it seams over prived to me... rims are meh, and the tires have half tread, we wont be able to tell you for sure if it will fit. depends on lift highet, how trimmed the fenders are, if you actaully take it off road, bump stops ect.

cut the fender open and go with 35's. there are four 36" irocks on RME4x4.com for $500-$600 IIRC.

I don't know what size a lift is on it now I'm guessing 4 inch cause 32s fit snug and I know 33s would rub

Yes. Cut the fenders. I have 0" of lift. And i have trimmed enough to fit 33's and rub a little at full flex. I run 31's right now and dont rub anywhere. With no lift
