The last 2 years I haven't had time to take my truck to the track. As much fun as it was, I'm thinking of returning to the plans I originally had for my truck before I bought it: lift.
Knowing what I know now about our front ends, 4wd, etc...I'm opting for a 4-6" lift from fabtech, set at 4", ntbd. Originally I was going to do a little modifying to clear a set of 35's. However, a buddy put the bug in my ear to go with some 37's...you know, a set of 16.5" bead locks off a military humvee in a 37x12.5x16.5 variety (tires are cheap). I don't want big wheels, there useless off-road so there's no point.
I've spent the last week trying to find someone who has done this already, and the closest I have found is JWC with his 37's under a stock height/lowered LML. Everything else is jacked up 8" or more and have body lifts to get the 37's to work.
Exactly how much trimming, and what kind offset would I need to clear a 37x12.5 tire with just 4" of lift.
Someone has to have done this, or have some idea of what could make it possible...
