D100 tire and lift questions
Hello all, I recently picked up a 89 d100 2wd with a 318 for a really good deal and was wondering what size tire I could fit with a 3 inch coil spacer level, would it be possible to fit 33s with some rubbing but nothing to major? I want to keep the stock 15 inch rims to so with that being said would I also need to run spacers to clear suspension components, and my final question how do these transmissions react to bigger tires than stock? Thanks to anyone who can help.

You won't get 3" suspension lift in there Imho.
Far From Stock makes a custom upper arm to facilitate lift. They don't even say how how much you get, because camber adjustment is the limiter.
A have a D250 with the beefiest springs (Moog 7226s) and stock 31's grab the front fender corner at full compression while turning because there's a little bit of slop in the radius rod bushing.
I would do a body lift for 3" lift, or just focus on a 33" for the rear (fits no problem). I ran with 33" rear for several years and liked that. Back to 31's again tho because of tire cost.
