Default truck needs a lift

Hi,

My truck has some big tires on it and when I turn the wheel rub against the wheel wells. How can I find a low cost lift for this?

Thanks

The way that I found a lift for my truck (I haven't bought yet) was just by doing an internet search. Price will depend on whether you are wanting a suspension lift or a body lift. In my expirence suspension lifts are more expensive than body lifts, yet body lifts are a bit more labor intensive. Try this website. http://www.4wheelonline.com/ Hope that helps.

if you are hitting the wheel wells only then a body will work but if you hit the frame you will prob need more work

What kind of truck, 2WD or 4WD? Also, size of the tire and is the wheel stock? There's other ways around it than lift. I trimmed my wheel wells a bit to fit a 255/70/15 long ago.
