you can get away with a 225/60/16 for tires that is what most of us run, you will need spindels up front and you can get bag kits from most anywhere.. best advise would be like husk said read and look at as many pictures as you can.. and when you plumb you airlines invest in teflon anywhere you have threaded fittings...

measure from the front sprint hanger bolt to the center of the axle tube and add 3 inches or so that way you have a liul extra..

do i need to move the hanger at all or nething or can i use that to bolt in the bars .. if i do do that will it still lay frame? or no? sorry for all these questions just want to do it right even thou i know a 4 link would b right but i dont use mine for long trips or anything and i believe a 2 link with pan hard would serve me well any inputs to change mind welcome

You can leave the hangers where they are at but the longer you can make a 2 link bar the better off you are. The shorter it is the more pinion change you have. It is pretty easy to move the front hanger forward quite a bit, at least it was on my burb.

10 inch notch should be good
