Well here are some pictures I took today after I cleaned the truck up. My new setup is gonna be either 4" superlift and 33's on 17's or, that plus a 3" bl and 35s on 17s. What do ya'll think is the best setup, or am I making a mistake all together..lol? I wanna go big!!













Thanks for checkin it out

 

17s and 35s...

i always loved my truck with a body lift and 33s though. nice thing about running 33s is less wear and tear, no need for gearing, nice ride, tires are still cheaper, looks great... etc..

 

Ya thats what I was thinkin too about the 33s, the only prob. is that I just know if I go with 33s Im gonna want those 35s..and its gonna kill me. The other thing I worry about is wear but I mean its obvious that I dont wheel my truck..like ever haha, and Im gonna try to go with the closest to stock backspacing that I can with no rubbing problems. I know you have had all the lifts though lol...I def. wanted your opinion.

 

agree with zabeard seen your tires on craigslist too and i thought about gettin one for a spare

 

if i could go back to 33s and body lift i would stay there. i think. i mean i ran 35s for a year and everything started wearing out... soo fast too. balljoints, tie rods, bearings...

33s i never had an issue. plus it still drives good with stock gearing, just a bit slower.

tires wear fast, once you burn the 33s up then decide if you want 35s and to go bigger.

my truck is about to cross from being a DD to just a toy, its just beyond a DD, breaks all the time and i am always workin on it. granted its not much of a ranger anymore

 

Ya man I sure wish someone would buy them lol...I was kind of disappointed on the results.

 

a toy as in alot of muddin trips?

 

Ya maybe I should just go with the 33s for awhile and see how I like it..its better to go up later, then try to go back down haha. So you even think runnin up and down the street the 35s would tear stuff up?

 

im sure youll find someone that wants them

 

i have a body lift with 33's and i haven't had any drive train problems all mine are engine but its not bc of the lift its the skinny pedal and timing chain

 

Ya I think that the 33s prob. are the safest way...its just man those 35s sound good..haha

 

what kind of tires and rims are you getting? and are you doing it yourself or gettin a shop to do it? if a shop which one?

 

Looks really nice. I'd go for the BL and 33's as well. I've got that setup and I love it.

 

Thankfully I have a friend to help me with the lift..as far as tires I want KM2s bad..and rims good lord dont get me started on that I cant make up my mind. I want something different like:




ya'll are welcome to help me decide...or better ideas haha

 

no mud... i dont like mud.

trails, etc... id like to go to the badlands in the next year or two.

 

get the moto metals.... in 17s and run 33/34" tires

 

I like chrome rims, but I think both of those types of rims would look much better black. Just my opinion.

I say 33's with the BL.

 

oh well any wheeling pics yours always make for a good desktop background

 

Have you ever seen them in person? I always have wondered how they would look. If Im gonna just go with one lift Im gonna go with the superlift, I think I would be alright with a bl I have just always wanted the superlift. Would 34s fit on a superlift alright? Who makes 34s other than super swamper?

 

I have always liked black rims too but on deep wedgewood blue it just doesnt look right to me...looks bruised up haha

 

once you go to 17 or 18 more places make 34s let me look

 

i think the 33s would still look pretty good with the 4 inch lift how wide are you going?

 

Okay awesome..thanks Zach

 

I dont wanna go any wider than 12.50 on the tires..and as far as the backspacing I wanna keep the look pretty skinny...I dont want a ton of tire hanging out

 

you need either

315/70/17 = 34.4x12.4/17
or
315/75/16 = 34.6x12.4/16

Kumho makes them in that 315/70/17, they might rub, it will be close
