X3 with the 35's. Also do you or have you done any mods to your axles and drive train for the 37s move. They add quite a bit more loading and torque to the rest of your setup.

I replaced the complete axle assemblies, not just the axles, I went with the Dynatrac pro rock d44 up front and d69 in the rear

Then I had custom driveshafts made

Was asking djlarroc with his rethink of 35s to 37s.

Nice setup though Sir. Will be putting together a D60 and 14bolt next year as funds allow myself.
