anyone do this? i wantted to see if i could put 35's under my rcd kit seeing that i am gonna need to get new tires anyways.

35x12.50 mudders or at's on 15x8's would look slick with the lift.

anyone think it can happen, or see it happen?

 

There is a ranger around here with a 5 inch lift and 35's on it, not sure about rubbing issues because I've never talked with the guy, but he def. has 35's on it with no body lift.

 

only one i know with an rcd and 35's is the other jared.. but he has a bl. i dont wanna bl

 

Yeah, his truck is hella nice. But like I said there is that one that I've seen around town and also when I was at the local 4x4 shop they claimed they just did a 01 4x4 that had a 5 inch lift and they put 35's on it with no body lift, but they also said that the RCD lift wouldn't work on my truck because the suspension is a lot different in 05, so who knows how reliable their info is. At first I didnt want a body lift either but I def. want to put 35's on my truck so I am gonna get a PA 3" inch this week and run 33's until I have the cash for the RCD lift and some bigger tires.

 

Suspensions different in 05, thats a load of crock I believe. Its still torsion bar based.

 

Scratch the BL bud and do it right the first time.
The RCD kit recommends that you run 33"s just to save their buttox. But if a guy on here can run a 3" BL with 35" BFG Mud-terrains, I don't see why somone can't run a 5.5" RCD Suspension lift with a coilover front suspension... With minor trimming of course :).

 

Wrong
05 trucks have 12" rotors. RCD lift is made for trucks with 11.25" rotors. Do a swap and you are set.

 

thats all thats needed

 

As does '04, and I believe some '03s.

 

yeap, all 4x4's in those years... also an issue with the pulse vac hubs

 

 

only year to have pulse vac hubs i belive was 98 ......

as for 35s with just an rcd .... as long as u are running 15x8s im sure it can be done with no rubbing. if u go to a 15x10 which i would recommend with 35sdue to tire wear, you will have to have a 3 inch body unless u want to trim alot

 

i don like 15x10

 

Thank-you Jared.

 

yeah, those suck ***...haha i know first hand

 

they wont fit on your front end unless you crank your coils... i think

 

hey..... thats what i figuered d do after they were on.
ARRRGH! im a pirate smiley!

 

ok first off, ive seen a truck with the RCD only and 35s. it can be done.


PVH was 98 through 2000-1/2.

15x10s are not needed for better tire wear. The section widths are the same on 33x12.50s and 35x12.50s so the same size rim is A-OK. I prefer 15x8s far more than 15x10s. for one the sidewalls on the tires with 15x10s are too wide lookin and also its easier to pop a bead on 15x10s when wheeling.

Just get some fiberglass up front jared, then you will definately have no worries at all. and it'll lok P.I.M.P.

 

holy hot damn your truck would be sweet with 35's!

just my two cents.
