    Ok, project makes the 35s fit before Rock Therapy is under way. I'm doing a 1/2" body lift, cab mount chop, possible bump stop adjustment and some cutting.



    The factory bolts work with the 1/2" body lift.

    I hope to get a good amount of grinding and fitting tomorrow so I can move onto welding. Then I will pull the springs and cycle the suspension. Hope to have tire clearance by the weekend.

    Just trying them out at this point. If I don't like them I'll go back to a 255/85r16 BFG mud. The benefit of clearance for 35s is it will allow me to run chains on the 255s. I was rubbing with the BFG muds but not the Coopers so this was needed to go back to them.

    Hoping that is the most that is needed. And a little more superficial trimming, not wanting to do any floor board cutting. I plan on extending my bump stops front and rear a little also.

    Yeah, you are probably going to eat the inner fender up front without a bump adjustment, and maybe the door in the rear. Do you have just the stock rear lowers still (no adjustment)?

    Stock lowers. Looking at Rokmen arms but think they are not adjustable.

    Shouldn't have looked at your build. So much stuff to do to mine. Yours is looking good!
