    Yupp, 3 inches in the front and about 4 in the back. You have to tub about 3 inches outta the fire wall. I posted a couple pics of the process a page or two back. I followed 45acp and monte on how much to cut since I didn't have a tire to cut by. I don't rub except the frame at full lock. Honestly 35s aren't worth it if you don't do any crawling or much off roading. I usually go about 2-3 week ends a month. I probably would have been fine with 33s but I really wanted 35s and knew if I bought the 33s I'd just be wanting 35s.

    Need to order a brake line for the rear. The shocks are limiting the droop in the rear for sure. Once you get that brake line on then take the shock loose and re flex. May just need to relocate and forget about 63's.

    ^^ This! Ill most likely end up doing 63's as well but im going to try relocating first to see if it helps mine out any cause I know my shocks are limiting and I have 3 sets of bilsteins to work with to figure out which will work best.

    I plan on eventually doing 63s but may run some billy 5125 12" relocated /\ and longer brake lines for the time being.

    Haha regear will be soon, but need to take care of this rear suspension. I'm thinking 5.29 for gears

    5.29s should be your only option, or 5.29s and a supercharger.

    Seeing yours made me pull the trigger. Got the new wheels and tires on. The spacers were a little too much so I took them off tonight. I'll get some more pics up later
