Hello community!
Been doing a lot of research and come to a crossroads. Im installing a class II skyjacker 6” lift to fit 35” tires, i was reading the builders guide and it stated that its advantageous to swap stub and knuckle from a dana 44 if you plan on running 35” or lager tires. Then i read that the stock 35 ttb can handle 35” tires max. Does anyone have any experiance using the stock 35 ttb without swapping out the knuckles and its reliability? It seems like a hard swap with all the reaming and i am really not a professional mechanic (newbie here trying to learn). Or does anyone know how much it would cost to pay someone to do the swap? I dont want to be on a trail and break down because i am runing too large of tires. Any input, suggestions, knowledge is greatly appreciated!!!
