Have you tried National Tires Website?

http://www.natltire.com/ntw0799/pages/tires.html

If nothing else, they list a variety and give you an idea of current prices and sizing. Try using www.google.com and using search terms like "off road tires" or model names like "super swamper" "Buckshot Mudder" etc. etc.

I am a novice to truck tire sizing and was confused by the differences in size listings - two different ways to say things, and never enough detail. Lots of folks have e-mailed me with what their trucks are wearing too. I have copied stuff from this forum to build a list of possibles.

I printed out what looked good for my needs and then sat down with the local tire store and narrowed it down to what would actually fit on my combat rims. Keep your bead width in mind. And don't forget, not everyone is willing to work on split rims.

I wound up going with Buckshot Mudders to get the 36" O.D. even though I wanted radials. As little as I drive my truck, I expect they'll dry rot before I wear them out.
