    Awesome! Love the wider stance in the front anyways. The second gen lifts have a lot more to account for unlike my first gen

    Yes he is, but he is running small tires. If you were to go to a bigger tire like a 35 then the tire would rub against the UCA. At least I think. And I think the Bs has to be between 4.5 and 4.75 if I'm correct?

    My 16s clear the spindles, I ran mine for awhile without my spacers up front and my 16s with 4.5 bs cleared without em. Now of course I have my 2" spacers back on to get that LT stance haha

    I believe all you'd need is a 1.25" spacer to clear the 35s without the spindles. running a 4.5" bs wheel and the maxtracs you get 1.75" width increase which pushes the wheel out even more so I don't think you'd have to run spacers to fit 35s so they don't rub the uca. I could be wrong though, that's just the way I thought it was

    So 315/76's on stock gears with a manual = 245/75's on stock gears with an auto as far as final drive gear ratio in overdrive goes. At least with the 2.7 it does. Which leads mean to believe going from 4.10 to 4.56 would be a good mix of low end power and high end mpg. Anyone have experience with a 2.7 5 speed and 35's with either 4.56 or 4.88 gears. How does it do on gas?

    Will be running AT2 325/60/18
    This will be my daily commute.

    @MrSalty how does it do on gas and does it feel underpowered? Also do you have the 2.7 or a 4.0

    A few things
    It may be the 65x65 but some are the 66x66 (11mm bolt) like mine and some other friends of mine. It describes the best way to determine which you need on that link:
    • "Take care in measuring as the 65mm x 65mm x 10mm pattern is very close in size to the 66mm x 66mm x 11mm pattern, the big difference will be the flange bolts. The 10mm and 11mm bolts often have "11" stamped on the heads and the wrenching size is the same 14mm head/nut on the 10mm and 11mm factory hardware. Also, these flanges are often in the 4.5" - 5" outer diameter size. Aside from careful measuring of the bolt pattern spacing, you can usually get a pair of calipers on the exposed end of the bolt sticking out past the nut. The end of the bolt is slightly tapered, but the 11mm bolt will measure about 10.6mm in dia. while the 10mm bolt will measure something like 9.6mm in dia. If you actually remove a bolt and check, the unthreaded shank will measure out quite close to the 10mm or 11mm measurement.
    • If you are sure you have 11mm bolts, order the larger 66mm x 66mm x 11mm spacer.
    • If you are not sure of your measurements, (it can be difficult to get accurate measurements in the confined space of the installed drive shaft), you can use the 65mm x 65mm x 10mm spacer with the 66mm x 66mm x 11mm flange. How can this be? Well, the holes in the spacer are drilled about 0.5mm oversized as are the holes in the factory flanges. The difference between the 65mm and 66mm bolt patterns are 0.5mm wider on each half, so with the bolt hole sizes, there is enough overlap to fit a 10mm bolt through all the holes. The reverse is not true, however. That is if you actually have a flange with 10mm bolts, the 11mm bolts will not fit in the 10mm hole."
