You can get away w/out caster co issues at 2.5" and some are ok at 3", but from vehicle to vehicle it varies.
Tackling caster and other weird driveline issues doesn't scare me. This is strictly a toy/project vehicle, so the plan has always been to spend the next however many years building it exactly how I want. So I won't let some "potential geometry" issues get in the way of doing what I want to it
 
😎 open ur checkbook. Skip all tire sizes and start with 40s.
Gonna stick with the 33's I have for now, for probably about 2 months until I get tired (😉) of how small they look, then I'll go with 35s and 4.88 gearing. Once those tires wear out, there's no telling what I'll do next lol. Engine swap? Manual swap? One ton swap? The possibilities are endless!
 
The new control arm bushings came in last night, so I spent a little while today getting both the upper and lower control arms out so I can get them popped out and the new bushings installed tomorrow morning. All 8 are shot to hell, but this one was by far the worst. Just using a hammer and holding the upper arm in my hand, I was able to pop the center of the bushing out... Safe to say these are the original with 380k miles on them 😂
