    Hey guys I'm thinking about getting some 37s for my truck. Right now I have 33s with no lift or leveling kit. I was wondering if anyone has some pictures of their truck with 37s and a lift kit. Thanks! ImageUploadedByTapatalk1416426519.277274.jpg

    I dont' think anyone here is running an older truck with tires that big. I believe you'll need around an 8" lift to get started, along with some serious gear reductions.

    I know I don't have stock gears in it now. It's a 5 speed with a granny low so it is driven like a 4 speed. Any tips on how to find out what it has in it?

    Jack up the rear end and rotate the tires. Count how many times the driveshaft rotates to spin the tire one full rotation, if the drive shaft spins and a half times to rotate the tires once, you hAve around a 3.55:1 gear ratio and so on

    Start a thread in the correct subforum and you may have more luck. An intro thread would help too.
