Well i was talking with a friend of mine today and he has a set of 37x14.50 swamper boggers he said he would sell me. He ran them on a 79 ford bronco, he says 600-700 dollars. So if i was to put them on should i cut the front fenders a little? More importantly it has a 350/th700r/np208/10-bolt axles i plan on changing the trans and motor but i hope to leave the rest stock.

It may not even be necessary to trim the front fenders. The weak link in your drive train is gonna be u-joints and that 10 bolt semi-floater rear end. How long it lives will be dependant on how hard you use the go pedal.
