you can get an 1"-2" by cranking up the torsion bars,but check the clearance of your bump stops in the front.I had to cut half of mine off on the upper one.Also be ready to get an alignment.Check the distance from the top of your rim to fender.

In addition to my last post,you can also put one of many fender "cut out" kits on,but it will still rub on tight turns

My truck has a lift on it, and 32 11.50-15 but I have no idea how much of a lift. The trucks set level, but there is less fender space in the back and more in the front..... what can i do for the back??? Do they make shackles to lift it about a inch or so... and if so will it effect the body lift i may put on it in the future. I would like to put 33 12.50s goodyear wrangler mt/r. Pretty nice tire. any ideas.

Lift shackles are pretty common, you should be able to pick some up at a local 4x4 or hotrod shop. A shackle lift will in no way effect a future body lift, beside raising the center of gravity even higher, and the body roll that may come with it. The MTR's are great in the rocks, but leave something to be desired in mud. I've had mine about a year and a half and the are holding up well. |
