Absolutely - I lifted it 2" front and rear (5100s OME coils and RXT leaf pack SPC UCA) and for a total of $450 got a viper cut and CMC - no rubbing not even close. I went with 33s 285/75R16 because I figured for now as a rookie I would stay off the real difficult trails but later when I was more experienced and ready in a year or so I could part out the 33s and go even bigger, get a re-gear and I would be all set. Yeah - well that didn't last I ended up doing the trails I thought I would hold off on until I got 35s. I am armored up all the way back with sliders. I also did a U bolt flip, spindle gussets, exhuast re-route, cut the exhaust off just past the axle, extended bump stops and front sway bar delete (the extra heavy duty coils help with that and I get better shock travel up front on the trail) - Tinkerer's Adventure has a couple of good YouTube videos on the sway bar delete and the extended travel you get from 5100s (yep that's a fact 5100s give you un-advertised extended travel)

This thread is about 34s. Thanks for stopping by

 

bump to get y'all to show off your 34's!

 

Love the look , did you have to do CMC, and a lot of hammering underneath to fit 285/75/17 ?

 

Are these a 34” skinny?

On 5100s w/ OME 887 and 5160s w/ 2 inch wheeler AAL.
Getting CMC and pinch welds done on Monday. Rubs pretty good on the front outer edge of the fenders liner. Massaged it back some with a heat gun but i think I’ll have to send up trimming it.

 

The white lettering out was a good call!

Also, Spirit of 1876 makes a nice bed mount for a full size spare. I was impressed at how well it was designed and fits perfect even with the camper shell on.

Allows for mounting of a 285/75/R17 in the bed.

 

Thanks for posted that as it's a shift I was looking at doing with a wheel change when I make the change to the 285/75 next year if my 295's wear out by then. These g003's just keep on going. I figured they would of been cooked after last summer.

But scrub radius and mud on my roof be damned I don't think I can drop my offset back to 0 after having -38's for the past year and -25 before. Gotta maintain that wide bulldog look.
