Nice! What differences have you noticed?
Also,I wonder if it's worth it though since the 35's are notorious for snapping axles,maybe you shoulda put a d44 in there.or a Ford 8" or 9" one or the other just bolts on.

I have Maxxis 33" which actual is 32" something..I am not interested in 35" too heavy. I have a friend thats is running 38" on D35/30 and never slapped an axle so drive it like you own it instead of like you have lots of money.. :) Like even in 5th now I have power. I might even make better fuel mileage, have to connect the GPS up to find out what I am actually doing on the hwy.
