^x2 Way to much lift for only running 35s, look like TSLs to me, I'm not a fan of welded diffs.

I like it, could use some bigger sneakers though. Is it the angle of the camera or is she smiling?

Side note:
I'm beginning to get sick of hearing "You don't have the right gears" and "Stock axles OMG!!"
3.73's with 35's would be fine, my 89 had 33's with 3.07's for years on stock axles never a problem. sure I wasn't a speed demon but It still cruised fine. I've seen people run 35's on D35/d30 for years with no problem. Hell my friend has been running 38's on his 8.25 for 3 years now. Yes it could be better but they will all work unless you utterly beat the **** out of your rig and bounce all the way up the trails.

Where I live, You probably wouldn't get more than a couple of blocks. Before your pulled over. Violations would include, excessive ht. Tires sticking out too far. Blacked out headlights. Unless I was living in the desert. I like my doors on.

X2 that's the first thing I thought too! not my style, but it would be good for a trail rig, I would hate to drive that thing as a DD... but that's coming fron a guy who loves the stock look.
