    How much of a lift do you have to have to put the 33'' tires.

    3" that's the recommended lift height for our trucks, anymore than 3" then your putting a lot of strain and angle on drive components......lot of options(brands) out there just search around on here and TW will help you spend your money LOL.....and welcome to TW!!!!

    I got a friend at a dealership to read the code but it's saying something about my brake lever that makes the lights for brakes come on is messed up. If that makes sense.

    Makes sense.......sometimes my parking brake dash light will come on when I'm going up steep hill/ sharp turn, could be the same thing

    I know a 31 is the stock tire, I'm not 100% if a 32 would rub or not. If it rubs it would probably be minor as in maybe just on the pinch weld, which you can trim/beat flat with a hammer........also depends if your off-roading the truck or not, flexing your suspension. Using stock rims or aftermarket...if your gonna put it on stock rims you could get wheel spacers and that might mitigate any rubbing......but guarantee you can search and find guys on here with stock suspension and 32s

    In all honesty for the same price as wheel spacers you could do a leveling lift kit, then you wouldn't have any issues with your tires rubbing......but like I said all depends on what you want to use the truck for. But no problem for the input, that's what makes this site so great!

    Thanks Nate.......we actually surfed together a few years back, I met you and your friend on Hickam and we took his boat out to reef runway. I'm stoked to see that Freedom Riding is still going strong as Freedom Media!!!

    So I'm bored, mine as well put together the "build" to my build thread (missing quite a bit of photos .....cus I didn't take many)
    This is the closest to stock form pic I have of her.....obviously had installed my Bushwacker Pocket Flares, and put on some N-Fab steps so my daughter could climb in easier.
