            well turn is goingto be how wide of a tire your going to run, and with what wheel you run stock wheel or aftermarket with a different backspacing

              The stock 8" wide or maybe a 10" wide with a 12.50" wide tire should give you no problems if taken off road with the 6" lift.

                Even with the wider wheels, you'll still have rubbing on the flares when fully flexed. Even with a 6" lift.

                If you can find some 34" tires you should be fine.

                  So what will I need to get besides the 6'' lift 35'' tires and rims? Will I need to get new drive shafts or anything extra
