if you are going body lift, you may need to do some trimming, or spacing on the front bumper. and yes....the lean would be horrible....id get a kick outa seein it on the road.

Pictured: Truck with 2" leveling in front on 35's. I think with a 2wd you'd be pushing it. I'd say if you went 2" all around you could fit 35's under the rear.

That will effectively regear the truck in the opposite direction from what anyone would want. It will make the truck sluggish since it will be lugging all the time. Performance and fuel economy will drop. If you have the 5.0 I really recommend against this. I would just get some 31 10.50s.

I have the 351 and i mainly just want the mud tires so I can get more traction in the mud me and my friends like to go a lot and i want to throw more stuff around and hopefully not get stuck as often if i sold these and bought a set of 33's would that be better?

Might fit better, the back will fit no issue-its the front. 2wd trucks and large tires dont mix very well since they are so low.

What would help you out greatly is to put a locker or at least a limited slip in your rear axle.

Stock height 4x4 with 35" tires. Do you think the rear end could drop 2" to 2wd height and not rub?

Yes, lifting the rear even more will definitely solve the problem.
