If you need 37's, you need to get rid of IFS.

37's would be phat. i personally think some sweet looking 35-36's will get the job done though. I say put them on and wheel until you break something. hell, it aint my truck.

ive heard nothing but great things about IROKS lately as I am lookin to get new tires this summer and have been researching them alittle. they are a soft compound and wear faster than other swampers but for a trail truck that sees little street use they would be excellent. great all around off road tire for mud rocks snow and even handle good on the street.
as for 36-37s on a toyota IFS with a front automatic locker, good luck dude. if its not your daily driver then do it till if destroys your axles and steering then just put in a solid axle...but if you wheel in the rocks/mud i cant imagine it lasting that long - once you get that ifs flexed out and try to make a turn or manuever through some rough rocks and all of a sudden that locker engages when u hit a slick spot...that could be the end of IFS?! bring some parts to get home
good luck
Brian

Ive seen 36s, but it all depends on what you plan on doing with the vehicle, and if it involves rough trails then all i say is good luck...plan on breaking parts...just get a solid axle.

what size do you have on there now? looks kinda like 35" boggers in your sig.
Have you thought about the 36x13.5's? still with a front locker you'd have to be really careful, but iroks are so awesome I'd prolly take the risk

There is no way a ~27 spline axle or 7.5" diff can handle 37's for any real use/abuse.
