How high is your lift and what wheel and tire set up are you running?

2.5 inch Leveling Kit on 285's wraped around a set of 2011 Lariat take offs. I will be moving back to a set of BFG All Terrain TKO's in 305. The sidewalls on those tires are way more solid than these Coopers, but overall the Coopers work well, I just miss the stiffer side walls of the BFG's made the truck feel more solid especially when pulling the 5er.

High?

I started with a 6inch kit and 37inch tires. Then 38inch tires. Had to regear from 4:30 to 4:88. Then an 8inch kit and 40inch tires. Need to regear again if I want to stay with the 40's. Also those tires aren't cheap. About $500 to $600 each!

started out with a 3.5" and 35s, then went to 6" with 35s, then ran 36x14.50s till they wore out and went back to 35s. the truck ran great with the 36s but the tranny was taking a beating
