I'm getting a jeep cherokee on 33s as a mud/rock toy and wondering if my s10 crew cab or my brother extended cab s10 would have a problem pulling the jeep back and forth from the trails? Any mods we may need to do. I pretty sure we will use my brothers s10 dew two the fact I scrub like a mother f**ker in the rear due to stuffing the biggest tire I could fit in it.

It will work the S-10 hard. A fullsize would be a better choice. Stopping would a problem without assistance.

My crew cab has a trans cooler. Might use my truck and put different wheels and tires on. Will the spacers on mine hurt anything
