Does anyone have a video of these 2 trucks actually driving on these or are we just going by hearsay?

I have z71 rear springs and 2" spacers up front and had to trim both front and rear plastic and even zip tie back some plastic up front for my 33's to not rub or rip out any plastic. You can always try it and start making ajustments after.

So do you think that with a little more trimming i could squeeze 35's?

At 38" on the front of mine, my front drivers side tire rubbed on my washer fluid tank just to give you an idea of how much I had to trim on mine. At 38 1/2" now, my front doesn't rub. Depends on how agressive of tires you get and offset too. Nitto Trail's like I have are a bit more agressive than other MT's with a bit more tread also.

They are the same as aftermarket keys, they are just indexed differently to provide more of a lift when you crank the bars. They used to be cheaper but Ford raised the prices now, so it is cheaper to just buy the aftermarket keys for the same amount of lift.
