Precoma's build thread

Yeah I put the vids of Greg Matt and James jumping on YouTube

 

whatd you have to do to fit the 35's ?? any rubbing?

 

Chop the cab mount as far back as I could yeah it still rubs on full lock I wouldent suggest it unless your going LT in the near future or have spindles

 

how bad does it rub?

 

It grabs the frame where it is cut so when it grabes the tread of the generals it grabes hard but that only happens if I'm making a u turn or trying to fit in a tight parking spot

 

do you have a picture of how you cut the mount?

 

Don't worry about VI. He is a rich Asian guy. He will be ok. ​

 

I can take one tomorrow morning it was origanly cut longs ways like evryone else's bit o wants to fit the 35's so I took a angle grinder and cut it as far back to the bolt as I could get I still need to plate it in though

 

sounds good man, im planning on going LT, trying to decide between 295/75/16 (33.2) and the 315/75/16 (34.7) but i need to see how bad the rub is and how far to cut, did you hammer your pinch welds too?

 

I have General Red Labels that are true 33's now. I some somewhat rub on full cock once in a while with a cab mount chop. I can't imagine with 35's ​

 

With fiberglass you have an extra 2-3" of clearance. Plus you cut/hammer back the pinchweld and chop the cab as far back as possible and you won't rub at all.

 

how far do you have yours cut?

 

If you look underneath at it there's like a circle part for a bolt or something in there. My circle is like half a circle if that makes sense lol it's all the way up to whatever is in that hole

 

Lol i know, His truck is also a race truck. So it'll get fixed up for free, and probably get made even stronger by Engage.. lol

I dont feel bad for him.. haha

Vi is an awesome dude though.

 

Keep in mind krish has the 4 in spindles though so thats why he doesent rub and yes I grinder back the pinch welds as well

 

Yup but I think he said he was getting spindles soon. Either way I cleared my 35s even before the spindles so it's possible. Just gotta cut and hammer alot

 

I just have a money tree in the back yard.

Truck is going back in the shop next wek to beef up the lower control arm stock pivot tabs and start fabbing up 4wd beefy spindle.

 

Yea buddy!
