Personally I would be more concerned about the RPMs you'll be twisting up on that 6.2 with only 35s & the 4.56 gears/SM465 combo.

That's a good point on the RPM’s.

I have been looking for an excuse to install the ranger OD I picked up. Since I currently have the interior stripped now seems like the time.

Ended up picking up 4 tsl sx2’s from intercos Blem list. Will see how they last but the price was 100 off each tire. Size is 35/10r16.

Edited to try these. My truck had 3410.5r15 TSl bias when it was still half ton and I thought we're my best offroad tire.

I will keep you all posted.
