btw new to forums thanks guys

 

Welcome to DF!

Check out FAQ1 and FAQ2, stickied posts a few above this. Tons of great info in those two posts.


From FAQ2:
What can I fit on my 4x4?
Stock...29 -30 inches
1-2 inches... 31s
2-4 inches... 33s
4-5 inches... 35s

Of course, if you aren't afraid of taking the sawzall/disc grinder to your body, you can fit pretty much anything.

There are a bunch of inexpensive ways to lift your truck a few inches to fit bigger tires, check out FAQ2 to get some ideas.


Also, you shouldn't have to re-gear anything until you hit 35+ (maybe someone will correct me on this).
33's on my truck put my speedo off by 5mph (says I'm going slower than I really am).

 

i seen that but ive read other places that people have fit 31'' and 32'' on stock which doesnt make sense with the FAQ2 i was wondering if there were anybody here that have actually put 31 or 32 on stock here

 

I know that some second gens came with 31s as stock size.

If you want to test it, take a tape measure and measure your wheels. You probably have 28s or so. If you're testing for 31s, that's a 3" difference, or 1.5" on each side. Measure out 1.5" from your tire and see if you'll be rubbing the body.

If you max out your stock torsion keys and don't mind rubbing on bumps (tires for looks more than effective use), then there is a decent chance you can fit them.

I'd really consider a lift though. $100-120 for a 2" body lift kit (or $60~ for a 2" puck lift) and $200~ for a 2" torsion key/add-a-leaf lift really gives you some room. I fit 33s with a 4" lift, but still had to cut fenders to give me proper up-travel room. Still, 4" of lift for about $300 isn't bad.

 

Where did you find a 4" lift for 300$

Would something like this work and is that a decent price seems kinda high to me but never bought these before

 

Here's how I got my 4 inches of lift:

2" torsion keys in front: http://www.totalperformanceonline.co...1321/50/100-14

2" add a leaf in rear: http://www.jcwhitney.com/trailmaster...=d412y1993g2j1

2" hockey puck body lift: https://dodgeforum.com/forum/1st-gen...ft-how-to.html (they also make 2" body lift kits you can buy, but they're more expensive but probably a little more durable)


You could substitute blocks in the rear for lift (this plus the torsion keys are the kit you linked to. buying separate saves you money): http://www.jcwhitney.com/lift-block-...412y1993g2u0j1

 

I have 31x10.50's on my truck with STOCK suspension. They fit FINE. No rubbing, nothing.

 

Well there is the answer. Slap some 31's on that thing!

 

thanks really appreciate it least now i can live with some 31's until i get some money for some lifts thanks again guys
