03' with 35"s,48RE and PMCR?

Just wondering if any members are running this set up.I have a Ca standard output,with 3.73's and the 48RE.I am thinking seriously about the Superlift 6" lift with 35"s and the TST PMCR to overcome the obvious deficiencies.Any opinions?,Im thinking the mileage issue would be a wash,since the PMCR addresses timing.What say ye?

No need for 6" for 35's....4.5 inch looks real good. Your truck might develop the Ford SD 6" w/ 35's syndrome...real tall truck with too small looking tires!

My lift/bumper/tires easily cost me 2 mpg. So if you net that much with you PMCR...then it would be a wash.

LOL,thats your opinion.Have you ever seen a 6" on a 3G with 35"s? Sweet lookin'. I figure if you are going to go 4",why not go 6"? The price is about the same,and the 6" is a coil over system,which i prefer to overpriced spacers

Good luck then...just too tall for the tire IMHO. I am predicting another 1-2 MPG loss...tell me what happens...
