Default tires question

I bought my truck with 35" tires and on the skyjacker site it says i can get 37" tires to fit with the 6" lift and what im wondering is if the 4.7 has enough power to pull them sized tires if theres no gear changes if anyone has 37" on a 4.7 how is it working

IMO You will need to re-gear. 35's you can run with stock axles and everything really but once you get over 35's you will need to be adding more HP and TQ and I would definately re-gear with 37's. If I were you I would just stick with the 35's. I have seen alot of dodges with 6" lift on 35's and I love the look. On my 04 ram 1500 hemi 4x4 4dr I can fit 35's with a leveling kit. If you have money to spend on re-gearing and adding headers and exhaust and a chip and cold air intake then go ahead and get all that but if not then I would just keep the 35's. Its gona cost a pretty penny too.
