    4"... I assume you are talking about gay spacers, and a body lift? 0" of lift can fit 33" with little trimming.

    Yes you will need to trim up the front a bit.

    Ya ive heard several opinions about how you can fit them with and withuot a lift. Im wondering about the uca's and the full turn lock. Im not worried about the back but the front seems really close.

    Nice truck man. I see that you're running a similar setup to my truck. I've been having some rubbing issues where the tire hits the frame and was thinking about getting some spacers. What brand of spacers do you use and do you have any complaints about them? Thanks in advance

    Thanks. I have the spidertrax spacers. I've had them installed for 6 or 7 months now and haven't had the first problem.

    I got a question. When y'all add the wheel spacers and run 32's or 33's do you also add longer bump stops? I just don't see how you keep your tires from eating you fender flares when you cram it. I run 32's with no spacers and if I'm not aired down my tires will eat my truck up. Sorry to
    Hijack.

    Mine rub my fender flares a little bit when I hit a hard bump while turning but it ain't bad at all. I just need to do a little bit of trimming to make it quit rubbing completely.

    Yeah I'm with you. I think some of these guys are just talking about them not rubbing with every day driving. I'm guessing if they were at full flex stuffing the tires in the wheel wells they would rub alot. Not that there's anything wrong with that if that's how you use your truck, but something to keep in mind/specify. I have 265/75R16 on 16x8 wheels with 4" backspacing and got a slight rub (rubbed a bolt head) in the driver side rear with the tire fully stuffed.

    Edit: That is with a 2.5" lift - Icons on the front and dakars on the rear.
