I have a 03 f-250 powerstroke. i was wondering if anyone has pics. of one with 8 inch lift and 38 inch tires or if anyone has suggestions. Im thinking about going with 8 inch superlift all springs and 38.5x16x16.5 inch superswamper tsl's. thanks

Make sure you include a serious set of gears with that lift and tires too.

Yeah i think im going to go with 4.88. I do a lot of pulling with a trailer and boat, i think that will give me a little more torque than stock. I have 3.73 now with 35's

It has got to be lacking with 35's and 3.73 even if it is a PS and really bad if it is a gas motor. 4.88 would be a good gear selection if it is a PS and you would want deeper still if it is a gas motor. Pay close attention to hitch design. I would use a class 5 receiver here because even if you to not tow a lot of weight, hitch offset required to lifted vehicles reduce capacity of hitch because of leverage form offset.
