Haha the questions are cool, don't worry man. I think most of us try to avoid that scenario lol. How often do you go off road where a mud tire must be used and an all terrain is not good enough? I know that mor emild tread patterns are easier on suspension and drive train components as well compared to aggressive tread patterns. If you plan on getting 37's I would do that, 4.88's front and rear, Auburn posi in the rear and a good suspension lift NOT using body lifts.

ORIGINAL: Diesel wannabe

You were right about the web address but look again 1500 is a half ton thats mostly what they carry, look closer. As for Vegashd my truck looks good and functions better than it did stock I don't care if you believe or not .You must must be one uglyass s.o.b. thats why your against looks.
HEY PHUCKTARD!!

REREAD what I wrote. Not at one time did I say I was against looks. In fact I said just the opposite.

i have an 02 ram with a procomp 5in lift and 35 in bfg mud terrains i have regeared it with 4.68's and anauburn posi. as far as the lift goes i know it will rub if i were to put a set of 37's on it. even though i have geared it and put in a posi i have gone through 3 tranny's might be partly due to the supercharger and my heavy foot!i havebroke my front driveshaft once due to wrong pinion angle. replaced my u-joints probably ten times. and my hubs three times.worst part is it is my daily driver. before the supercharger i was getting about 9mpg. with the supercharger i get about 11.5. this is just a little info for you to think about because the maintenance sucks!!!!

We don't have 4.68 gears for our axles, do you mean 4.88? perhaps 4.56? Those are the two closest ratios. Did you have your drivelines done at a shop? If not that will explain most your problems. With any lift my truck would be going to a driveline shop to get drivelines that actually worked correctly for my truck.
