Thats what i was thinking. But you have 31's stock.? Did you have to trim anything or what? What year is it. I have a 2000 dodge durango. The wheel space seems very tight.
Mine's a 99, but my old neighbor also had 31's on his stock 2000. No trimming should be needed, but might not hurt.

@ RJ_Hythloday

You must be talking about the Petersons with Alpine Lock and Safe!

I helped them build their first office in American Fork after an old sporting goods store closed up. They were my neighbors for years before they moved.
