Something like that, lol. I can't decide if I should get 5.13's, tires, or headers first.

Beer is always on hand... always.
I guess I could go ahead and get gears but wait to install them until I got some 38's.

No, put them in right away, run them, and have more fun than ever before.

Agreed. Didn't you have some 35's or something?

Yeah, I had a set of 35 12.5 17 bfg's but sold them, and sold the 46's. I have 2 40" hawgs but they don't hold air.. I'm looking for 38" tsl's, boggers or hawgs as wide as I can get away with.

Stay skinny... takes a lot more to turn a wide tire

Skinny puts you on the bottom always. With a wide tire, the right gearing, and a little hp you can get on top of the mud
