Fenders on not long travel?

any ideas??

 

i havent seen a truck with 3.75" bs so i dont know how much wider that makes it, post a pic of your truck right now from the front and it'll be easier to give you advice. do you want to run wheel spacers?

 

I have a picture. Let me find it...

 

is that ^^^ with 3.75" bs and 285/75/16"s?

 

I think so... Those tires are 265/75.16's. I am not exactly sure what the back spacing is though...

 

i wouldnt run anything over 3" or so without LT. ur fenders shouldnt come out further then ur tires. i personally would rather my tires stick out an inch passed my stock fenders then 2" inside some big ol glass fenders. just my 2 cents u dont want to end up looking like a ranger with big ass fenders and narrow tires. i d also be careful running spacers up front. i m running 1 1/2" in the rear (like most ppl with tacos) but the fronts a different story. something does wrong and u might end up on ur lid.

holy shit man. 3" spacers. i hope u dont hit many bumps. thats a HOLE LOT extra leverage on ur hubs!!

??? how would a spacer but any more pressure than a 3" coilover setup?

 

ya i do like my tires sticking out those 2"s. thats why i did what i did with that 3.75" bs and 285/75/16 but now im rubbing the inside of my fender and to fix it i would need to start cutting some metal parts of the fender oh na im good without the spacers in utah they are illegal cuz they are dont give ur rims a good connection to ur axle

Sounds like there's a little confusion between what kind of spacer we're talking about.

I think he is referring the a wheel spacer, not a suspension spacer, or maybe im confused too

 

Im confused too

 

Spacers suck, lets leave it at that, unless they server your purpose

 

If you're talking about 3" suspension spacers... holy shit dude. On the other hand, if you're talking abot 3" wheel spacers... uhh... holy shit dude.

 

x2

 

x3....i was wrong, think he was referring to a suspension spacer. but yes, either way that horrible. suspension wise that might be worse. thats so much preload on ur ball joints and is an easy way to bind and break spindles.

sorry for the miss communication and thread jack.....on with the thread

 

Agreed, go with the fenders man, I think it'll look good, no need to worry if LT or not. Are you keeping the stock bumper though? Flared fenders dont look good with a stock bumper IMO

 

He should get LT if he is going to run glass fenders.

 

i ran the same setup for 3 years before going LT...

you should like the look of 3.5" glassworks glass fenders

you could also run 4.5" and it won't look goofy

personally, i would run the 3.5" for clearance and to have the tires stick out just enough to make the truck look beefy... it will be pure function and form...

old pic of mine pre LT with 4" backspace and 285-75-16s

 

ya ok just to clear it up.

3" suspension toytec spacer lift with procomp shocks in front.

1.5" suspension toytec spacer block with procomp shocks in rear. 3.75" back spacing on 16x8" black out steel rims with 285/75/16 falken rocky mountains with no wheel spacers

 

hey thanks! and can i get some side shots of the fenders?
