you need 2" of lift to clear 31's. you might get lucky and not have to trim, but chances are youll be trimming atleast a little bit.

you can crank your tbars 2" but itll tear apart your cv's, i suggest either getting a 2" body lift or just cranking your tbars 1.5-1.75" and triming your front valance and the rear of your front fender. also keep in mind that any crank on your tbars will result in unwanted wear and tear in your front end.

also i have another question about how much would an alignment cost? i have no idea

bc im going to the goodyear place and they have in their ad that they have price match and the 31x10.5" are 130 at tirerack.com

and there the 235/75/15 are 126 or 8

and if i go ahead and do the shackles and tbar before ill save some trouble
