I don't see why it won't. About the only other thing you may have to do is maybee trim the inside edge of the front bumper. I had 35-12.50 BFG mud TA's on my truck with no lift at all. I did move the front bumper out one inch and cut the inside corner off. You should have plenty of room. Good luck Hippie

I did the exact same thing as HippieCustoms. Look in my gallery, no lift at all.

Hippy,

Did you say you had no lift at all and fit 35's on your f150?:-staun
I just got the same truck. So, all I have to do is move the front bumper out and cut the ends? Is that really all?

RabidRanger what size rims do you have on your truck ? By the way good looking truck. You to Hippie couldn't leave out that awsome looking truck.

Unfortunatly the rims are 16.5 x 9.5. When I was running 35x14.5 swampers I aired down to 12 psi on the dunes and blew the tire COMPLETELY off the rim. It rolled away actually. So stick with the 16's. The 16.5's were a steal so I got those instead of 16's.
