I think if you regeared it would be fine (IF you could find a set of 5.38's for the front), but you would really have to drive smart on the trail to keep from destroying the front end. heavy duty tie-rods would be a must.


yea, but to keep that setup intact, its going to greatly limited the trails you choose to get on. sure, you can probably baby it through the stock-moderate trails and not run much of a risk, but thats going to be little more than driving on a dirt road for a rig that size. To get on trails anywhere close to challenging would spell certain distruction, even if you stay off the throttle and try to ease through it.

IMHO, this is still a horrible idea for anything but a street queen. I drove 35's with the IFS for a short time and things felt incredably weak. I've been on 36's and now 38's with my SAS and couldn't image driving those tires on the IFS.
