I see that you have Toyo MT's on yours. What is your overall impression of them?? I have heard that they will outlast BFG AT's hands down. Reason for that is because the BFG was intended for use of vehicles weighing less than 7000 lbs. Not sure if it is true though.

I have close to 30,000 mles on the truck and most of them on the 37"s I like the tire. I haul a 5000 lb camper and pull a 10000 lb trailer and have never had an issue on this truck up to this point and had the same tire on my 04 before I traded it in. I emailed you the pictures so you can blow them up. or do whatever. I like the look they give because it kind of looks like it belongs. I have a guy that lives in my neighborhood that has the same truck set up similarly but has a 4" lift on it. It looks nice but it looks like it was lifted. Mine kind of looks like it belongs that way. The 35"s actually look too small.

What i have noticed is if you have offset wheels that set out a little farther than most they tend to rub when turning and the suspension slightly compressed.

If you don't do the offset it rubs on the swingarm more. I agree, the compression makes it rub when turning tight but it is minimal. I did tie my inner fender wall back a little to limit this from happening.

I know this is a newb question but if you put 350 blocks on a 250 or an aal in the rear does it affect the drive line angle very much and do you have to extend any brake lines?

I put both F350 blocks and a Deaver AAL on my truck and have no issues with the drive line angle or with brake lines.

If you have a two price driveshaft you will probably have to shim the carrier bearing to reduce vibration.
