yea im not a huge beer guy myself either.
and i didnt mean drink while installing i meant after and the night before.

 

heres what you dont wanna see.
my BLs gotta get fixed up. or just taken off completely
front passenger block




driver middle



heh....
body lifts are not for me

 

mine is doing the same thing in the front... i just dont really care that much! haha

my frame is all messed up, you name it its messed up/bent... front or back does not matter.

 

yea
but i wanna build a cage, interior and exterior, bumpers, flatbed yada yada..

and eventually its gonna get romped on really hard once i get it to the point where its trailered to ranchs and no longer my DD... the last thing i need is the BL f'n up

 

once you cage it you can just ditch all that rubber and use aluminum blocks for body mounts. there will be no shifting anyway.

you know that Chris (shonuff82) still has a body lift...

 

that big huge one that needs to be taken down a few inches? yea if it wasnt for the steering angles and stuff i would say just take off the BL and call it good but who knows.

what do you mean ditch all the rubber? are you talkin with or w/o the BL blocks still in?

 

like there is a 1" piece of stock rubber on the mount. you dont want that with a cage. then just make a 2" steel or aluminum block for the body mount. it will be rigid enough it wont move. plus the cab will be held in many more spots with the cage.

 

hell my stock splash mounts look worse then that and they are stock haha

 

ha, just cut all the mounting crap off the truck and weld blck on to bolt into? haha

 

lol no i think you are confused... let me find a pic

look in this pic under the cab

hey guys will 305's fit on my stock wheels. im not sure when im gettin new wheels. it wont be until atleast june or july

 

they should
they will be kinda wide.

btw firefighterjosh has 12.5" wide tires on his 7" wide wheels he has no issues and tire wear is good

 

gotcha thanks

 

i went to "speed and truck world" and took a look at some 285/75/16R bfg A/T's. can i run those with jus the t-bar crank? they look like they wouldnt fit. and if they did then they would rub.

 

they look huge until you run em for a few months, then they look small

 

i know when i bl it that will keep the tires from rubbing the fenders, but wouldnt 305's still rub on the sway bar?

 

let me guess you are gonna run stock wheels?

here is body lift and 285 and stock wheels... kinda skinny looking IMO













T-bar crank and if you dont do hard wheeling it wont rub.. if you out wheeling the crap out of it all the time then yes it will...

here they are stock...

 

you're right it does look to skinny. i cant afford wheels right now atleast not till june

 

then wait and do it all then and just save... its winter anyways putting body lifts on in the cold suck i know i just did one again in the winter just a few weeks ago..

 

well if these 15's fit i will b able to afford wheels and tires. 33x12.5x15

these wheels are made by ion. they are only $99 thru jegs they dont tell they b.s but the offset is -27 mm

 

they fit..
