Default can i go with 41" w/ 7in lift and 3in body?

on skyjackers conversion chart it says that with a 7" lift i can put 38" tires on it. but if i also have a 3"body can i squeeze 41" tires?

Probably will fit
Is this a 1500? If so you will really be stressing the stock axles

Yeah, actually you're getting pretty up there even for 1 ton axels. Another inch or 2 and you're looking at Rockwells.

you'll still snap the dana 60, 70's with 41's if you wheel hard or do alot of rock crawling....

My buddy's mud bog truck uses Dana 60 axles with 70 hubs and puts 1200HP to them. Only time he usually breaks them is when it goes airborne and hits hard. Of course the throttle is matted so it hits pulling hard.
