Ok, I just didn't want you to miss out on a wheeling spot that's in your area. It's on the first page.

not a big fan of the rims but i like the bed lining job you've done to the bottom and around the fenders, looks nice and clean. I also have a 98 on 35s but I changed to 4:11 gear ratio

How is that 4:11? Because im really considering this ford 8.8 and runnning 4.56... Ima check out pull apart tomorrow and see what they have but I can't install it any time soon:/ its alright just think these tires and wheels are starting to mess with my d35 because I keep hearing this bad sound mostly sounds like a drum grabbing but im not sure??

pretty sure you have the 8.25 which some people would kill to have. It preforms awesome. In 4low, it crawls over everything i need it too and have never thought i wanted a lower gear. I keep up really well with a friend of mine who has a Toyota with a triple transfer case and a really low granny gear. Also, for just driving around town, still has plenty of power and gets up and goes just as I'd want it too

Thanks Simone
if those are 35's you have more lift on it then just 4 or 4.5... i had a cherokee with a 6inch lift and it would only take 32's and flex out completely with out rubbing with the stock fender flares

4.5 inch lift, trimmed fenders flexing out with 35x12.5 tires on it....It works. Crappy cell phone pictures but you get the point.
