36" tires?

Hey guys, I have been thinkin of puttin 36" tires on my 2004 ford ranger xlt for a while now and was wondering if anyone knew what size lift I need to run those. I already have a 4inch suspension lift and was told I would only need a 3" body lift to get those on there with some minor fender trimming but I'm not sure.

Have a look here: Ford Ranger / Bronco II Tire Fitment

They only go up to 35" tires, so you may need a bit more than 3" body lift

You may need to do a little bit of trimming on the fenders, but other than that you should be good to go after installing the body lift.

There have been a couple of guys on here before who had a Superlift, body lift, maxed out the T-bars, and fit 37s.

How much trimming you do depends on if you wheel it or not.

I don't plan on doing any wheeling. Maybe a little dirt road driving every now and then in North Carolina but nothing other than that.
