wider is better.... since yes narrow tires dig but what if mud is too deep your frame is going to bottom out and your stuck.... so what I like is wide tires if I had more money I'd go with 14.5 wide rather than my 12.5s.... wide tires with good tread self cleaning lugs is the only way to go keeps truck floating n prevents bottoming out.... my old 97 f150 was running 38x15.5 Swamper TSL radials and it was a tank never got stuck in serious mud.... I almost ordered a set of 35x14.5 boggers but wife says no....:(

bscot, yes you can order a lift for the AWD. i have a rancho 4" susp and i have an 01 EB/AWD. no driveline vibration and i fit 35 toyo open country with 16x10 rims. walnuts, with that fabtech and AWD, do you get a lot of driveline vibration? is yours the alltime AWD/4h/4l or do you have the 2wd option transfer case? cuz i know where bscot is coming from. cant seem to find one "compatible" with the AWD.

did you have to change any of the driveline angles or anything? do you get any axlewrap when you are offroading? im really considering going with your type of setup cuz of the cost of SAS.
