Fitting 35’s with minimal trimming NOW ADDING LONG TRAVEL AND 934 CV’s

No. I have 16x700 on right now due to a minor mixup and Harry is sending me 18x600. He recommended 18 over 16 due to it being a lighter coil. That way I can have a decent ride height without having to have the preload cranked up.

 

@EatSleepTacos for your Crocs

 

I basically copied Randy as far as the 2x2 bar across and added doublers inside to the frame. Then just plasma’d out some frame plates and built two bars up and a bunch of cross bars. Didn’t have full time at home to finish but I’m gonna bolt on uhmw to the front of the bars for my skid.

 

I used an all pro front bumper with out the bottom piece that comes with it. Built some brackets that tie it in to the frame and added some bolts in the middle to rivnuts in the new crossmember I welded in. Doesn’t hang down any farther than the frame rails.

 

I hate the 2 piece design that allpro comes with, I might have to copy this

 

I prefer plate bumpers and knew I didn’t have the time or patience to build one I would be happy with right now. I believe they also make this bumper in aluminum. I don’t have a way to weld to AL if I needed to do I stuck with the steel

 

I’m new here, but I’ve been following this thread for quite some time. I’m currently running the JD Slide rack, tc pump and pivots. Gotta say, they build some gnarly stuff. I’m one of the dumb ones on 37’s and this has been my most trouble free year to date. Now I’m just trying to convince myself that I don’t need long travel!

 

I was wondering when you were going to show up here on TW. It's Randy from FB, the one that told you about the slide rack. I got my LT kit installed last week.

 

I Love it! how obnoxious is it with the -38s? Im really trying to avoid glass if possible!

 

It's pretty stupid but I also don't have factory flares. I have +2 glass on the way which will cover to the painted orange line on the tire.

 

My factory flares arent long for the world. I keep breaking clips and its becoming more troublesome than anything. Which glass did you go with?

 

No you don’t need this at all. It’s horrible

 

McNeil, they're the only ones that make +2 as far as I know. I asked them and that's measured off of the factory flare, so maybe ~3.5" extra coverage vs what I have now.

 

Trailer Products makes a plus 2. Ive got some MGM ones hanging on the wall in my garage. Dis b dem

 

Looks like they only offer a +3 now. That's cool though, never heard of them before.

Yep mine are the trailer products ones as well. Well what’s let of them after all the trimming I’ve done

 

For sale cheap!!

 

Man, I would've bought those off of you if I'd have known.

 

How does glass hold up for tight trails and trees? I’m always on a tree when I ride.

 

Probably not well since fiberglass is rigid. That's why I only bought +2, so I'll still have a few inches of poke. For me, my front end is never on trees. It's my bedsides that are constantly getting shoved into them.
