    Do u think stock suspension will work to hold up 2 steel bumpers and fiberglass fenders with 35-37 inch tires and just have to add spacers on 18inch wheels.

    Found a used BedRug for a short box today on Craiglist.

    Came without the hook Velcro, but I was able to pick some up locally [that $hit is expensive!]

    Anyways, this is how it turned out.

    Took 30 minutes. Painless and easy.

    Not sure I'd pay $400US for one new, but for what I paid, I would do it again.

    Dogs will be happy!

    I pray to god you're kidding. If not and you genuinely don't know, there's no way in hell that'll work for a lot of reasons.

    Yes,but there is steps you have to take. And priorities, suspension before 35's or bigger,suspension before tires...you have to start with a solid base. But everyone has different priorities and wants.

    Well I tried to remove my sway bar today because I want to feel how it drives without it, but the first nut I tried to remove from the spindle (drivers side) wouldn't loosen past a certain point, I think because of rust. I had to stop because I was worried about stripping the 6mm hex socket on the bolt end, which if that happened I'd be pretty much boned right?

    I also removed my front splash guards because of rubbing, but my 265/70/R17 tires are still rubbing :annoyed:

    Not a great day.

    Well less lift plus bigger tires =more cutting,a lot more. More spacers on stock suspension plus more weight = a lot more sagging and worn out stuff. I think research on this site is the best advice I can give. A lot of overkill builds on here but there is also a lot of information to do upgrades the right way on a budget. Just do some reading on TW, that's the best advice I can give.
