Lift for my 5 lug

Wanting to lift my 5 lug on 15x8 wheels and 31” tires. Was looking at the eBay 3” spacer lift and a aal out back. I have no problems running a spacer lift. Ran them before. Cheap and affective. This isn’t meant to be an argument on how I should do this. Don’t wanna spend a fortune. Can I clear 31-10-15 tires on a 15x8 wheel with a steel welded 3” spacer and a aal? Will I be able to align it to spec running 3” up front? Recommendations?






And yes I’ve done lots of research on this. Just want a yes or no answer as far as the alignment and clearing the tires goes

 

Also what length rear shocks will I need?

 

Most of the guys on here only have experience with tire fitment on 6 lug trucks

Sorry, maybe ask in the 5 lug section

Edit.. i just looked in the 5 lug section and literally all the stickies and first page of threads are lift/tire size related

Good luck

 

31 is gonna be hard with the stock gearing, unless you don’t tow a lot, or are going to regear I’d stick with the universally accepted size of 235/75/15 by 5luggers

 

FWIW, I have a 6 lug prerunner on a 3inch spacer lift and my front end alignment spot on. I'm currently buying spindles but have no issues with the spacers. As for the tires, I wouldn't know. Just thought u would want to hear from someone that actually has a spacer lift, just sayin

 

Most I tow is a 5x8 with my four wheeler or my 48” zero turn

 

Sweet thanks man. I’ll tuck some 31’s. I can cut or they can find a home for me haha

Have any pics of yours?

 

I got one, it's not the greates

 

From my understanding I can run billy 5100 out back for a 6 lug truck with 0-1” of lift. Can anyone confirm this and possibly point me in the right direction on where to order a set?

 

Also a aal will lift the back correct?
Wouldn’t adding a leaf to a spring under axle set up push the axle up there for lowering the back of the truck

 

If you're set on the 31 all you need to do is get the fat bob / ready lift AAL and spacer in the front, then do a black box delete and youll fit 31's not issues. EXPECT power loss though.

 

that’s what I ordered. Spacer lift and aal

 

Pics when u get it on

 

Probably be a while. No idea what wheels to get as the ones I posted are no longer available. Really don’t want basic bullet holes either

 

I find good deals on OEM wheels cause most pull them off, there are plenty of options, scion, Lexus, jeep and others may work on ur five lugs

 

Yeah had 350z wheels on my 96 I sold today

 

In the meantime do the black box mod so you dont have to worry about it once your parts get in. Also just curious, why do you have two tacos?

 

Nice lookin truck, jeep makes some really nice wheels, not sure of the fitment
