Intro to fitting 35s (< 3" Lifts for those that wheel and love alignments)

I need to save this. FFS Everytime I wheel hard I have to manually adjust back to my marks.

 

Great thread

 

I have 17x9 -38 scs ray 10's.. you think thats too aggressive for 35's? Back spacing is 3.5in

 

I’m sure someone has that setup. I think it’s possible but you have to get the alignment perfect (Farthest forward possible) and big cmc. Expect to need to trim fenders too (even with a 3/8 spacer on the bumpstops).

this is my expectation with a -12 mm offset. Hopefully some has the setup you’re talking about and chime in.

 

What I got, my cam bolts are frozen so I gotta fix that and push the wheel forward a bit and I cut the cmc wwwaaayyyyy back

 

Also did a lazy job on those pinch welds so I could go to work easier the next day I hammered those in better

 

I’m finished with this mock up rim. If anyone wants it for test fitting tire on your truck hit me up, you pay shipping or pick it up. 16x8 4 inch backspace.

 

Just finished stuffing 35s on mines

 

Anyone on here running Nitto Trail Grapplers 35x11.5 R17??

 

Put 3/8 bump spacers on but still hitting fender liner underneath on both sides. What’d you all do? Hammer metal above the liner?

 

You're going to hit that no matter what you do if you drive aggressively offroad without gimping travel worse than you already have. I've got mine partially tubbed and still rub a little under the windshield fluid reservoir area.

 

Gotcha, just wanted to see what was already tried. I’ll just leave it.

 

Id personal go with toytecs 1" body lift. gives you all the more clearance youd need and not really a noticeable frame gap. but I know this is tw and even a small 1" bl is sacrilegious.

 

I have wheelers super bumps and 16x8 with 3.75 backspace rims and I don’t hit there. I grinded the lip off of the steel fender there and pulled the plastic liner.

 

Any pics of the metal you shaved down? Is there a weld there or anything I’d want to avoid.

 

Not a bad idea. I would be able to gain up travel which would be nice. Mind of a lot of effort to buy and put a space in every body mount though.

 

its actually a pretty easy job. takes a couple hours if u got a buddy to help. I run a 1" on my first gen to help clear. saved me from cutting my fenders up.

 

I’ll take a picture later and post it.

 

I grinded down the lip that was in between the two spot welds. This is the passenger side.

 

Fenders are done. Now I just need to tackle the flares
