    How big of tires do you want to run?

    You can run 37s with an 8 inch lift and proper trimming, but I would say 37s is the absolute max tire size I would run on factory axles and that's with chromo shafts and trusses. Prob wouldn't hurt to gusset and sleeve either. With the axles built correctly I think they could handle 37s without too much carnage as long as you had a stock motor and were smart with the skinny pedal.

    Anything bigger and your going to need stronger axles, and at that point full width axles are gonna do the job better anyhow. They would be a much more stable base with that high of a lift.

    If your dead set on 10 inches of lift, an 8 inch lift plus shackle relocation brackets in the rear and coil spacers up front will get you there.

    im wanting to stay with the same size tire. im just wanting to go bigger to get more flex without butchering the fenders and help with the weight of the bumpers and cage i plan on building. i cant go any wider unless i go to wider axles. im sticking 4" out past the fenders already. i do plan on putting trusses on the front and rear. after looking around i think i want to try to 4 link the rear. i might go full width if i ever get my s10 done and can buy a tow rig to tow it with

IRO has 8" coils im thinking about getting for the front and there truss for the dana 30 front raises the coil pad 1". after looking around i think i want to try to 4 link the rear. i think my biggest problem is gona be driveline angles. i might go full width if i ever get my s10 done and can buy a tow rig to tow the xj with
