Well I sold the cougar today for $4000 so I have some fun money now. If I do a suspension lift i might take the BL off until my tires wear cause there brand new. My goal is for the SL, BL, new rims, and new tires. Not all at once, 1 at a time.
I have basically the same setup as the truck above my ride quality is fine. I have 35x12.50 MTZs on a 15x10 rim
And it may be just me but after the SL was installed it seemed like my truck had a better turning radius.

also G'sevo had his 15x10 and 33's on the dunes at 10psi all weekend and no issues..
if you plan on rock crawling yes i would agree but the driving 90% of people do your fine plus the driving josh does he will be fine.. 12.5" wide tires on 8" wide rims for most driving do not wear correctly
sell your tires it makes the truck look way to skinny
most guys especially after regearing are getting mid teens for MPG after..
I had a manual trans with that setup as Zach said, I was getting 18mpg on the highway with what you see in those pics with stock gearing.
^^^Same thing as bill in last post....about 18mpg highway and stock 4.10's and 5spd manual.
I too have the 4" superlift and 3" bodylift and 35's w/ 4.10's. Added #1 bars and removed the sway bar. Superlift front shocks, Bilstein 5100's in the rear. Rear lift consists of stock 2.5" block, Short AAL, and 2" chevy drop shackles.
Rides great...i'd even say it rides better than when i purchased it stock w/ 30k on the clock!
