What size tire do you plan on running with this setup?

 

Well that was going to be my next question... Where I'm not used to modifying trucks I'm not sure what tire size to run with the setup I'm going with. Any suggestions? I do want something beefy to run with this setup.

 

the spilde lift you have to run 17in rims, just depends of the manufabtuers

 

So I have to run 17 inch rims? What size tire would suite that lift? 33's?

 

play around with this

This is a picture of my truck, I have 2.5 inches of lift in the front and 1.75 in the back, Im running 285/75/16 tires which is basically a 33

There is a guy around were I live with a 6in suspension and 3in body lift and he is running 35's with tons of room, If I was you I would just stick with a 3in lift and 33's for now and if you feel you need to go bigger then you can pick up a body lift and move up to 35's

The problem with going to 35's or bigger is you will need to regear to keep from losing alot of power

 

Alright so after looking at all of my options I don't really think a 4 inch suspension lift is really necessary. So my new plans are to go with a 2 inch leveling kit and a 3 inch body lift. With both of those together I should be able to fit some 33's under there no problem and call it a day. Correct?

 

yep sounds good to me,


you may need a 1in block in the back do it your truck being a reg cab short box,,, just wait and see throw

 

Now with the body lift I'm getting it comes with a steering extension but will I need a steering stabilizer? If so all I've been able to find are ones for 4WD. Do they only fit 4WD or do they fit both 4WD and 2WD?

 

Got 33's on my 2WD with only a 1.5" spacer
