how are the virbrations on yours? do you have a sye, or an exstended yoke? new gears? also what size tires do you have? i would like to run 33's, and im willing to trim, i just do not know what size rims or what size 33's to run with it. Thanks Matt.

You will need an SYE period.

Run 15x8 with 4.25 to 3.75" backspacing. I cut my fenders on my '99 and have room for 35s with the RE 4.5" and I run 4.25" bs on my rims, it looks great with no fenders.

If oyu go 33s you will want to regear to 4.56s or even 4.88s. I went with 4.56s cause of the 8.25 and I drive 80 miles a day and wish I could see what 4.88s are like:loveu:

I had no vibes and no tc drop after it was installed .. I drove it like that for a little while until I got the SYE

I have liberty wheels 16x8 they actually tuck in the fenders a little when they flex .. 285x75x16 had time trim just a little

I am running 32" MTR's and only had do do very minor trimming in the front inner area. I am using the stock wheels with 4.10 gears. I thought about going lower, but it's my DD so with this setup it makes the speedo and power pretty much at stock levels. I do have an SYE, but I am still getting a vibe from somewhere, trying to track it down, but I had it before the lift also, so it's something else... I would recommend the SYE as soon as you can though...
