Default 3 inch lift on 31's pics

I'm lifting my truck 3 inches and putting 31x10.50x15 Firestone destination A/T on it. I will also put about a 1 inch wheel spacer on. Anyone have this setup? Please on 3 inch on 31's pics.

Thanks!

Haha, this is like the millionth request for this. Google will be awesome for you.

I had 31s til I trimmed and went to 33s. Should have some pics in my build thread.

There's a thread on this very page asking almost the same thing, sans the 3" lift part, though most pics posted are XJ's with 3" lifts and 31's.

3in lift with 31x10.50r15s flexing at almost max flex and on pic of it out in the swamp. I am running the goodyear wrangler authority but I am switching to 30x9.50r15 yokohama geolandar mt+ because I have cut a few of my outter lugs from stuffing the tires in the fender wells and also I dont have the flex I want or for that matter need lol

Lol you know it would flex ALOT better if you'd take the sway bars off. And theres no reason to get smaller tires, just get extended bump stops.

I dont know what this sway bar is your talking about lol. I took the rear off when I did the lift and had the front disconnected when I took these pics cause I had been hunting in some rough spots off road that I needed the extra flex for. Reason for smaller tires is I keep cutting the outter lugs every time I flex so to flex at my max flex with 31s im going 30s.
