34" Tires on '07 Level II?

I am getting 4" Superlift and want 34's. Either 305/70r17 Goodyear MTR's, 34x12.50 Interco TrXus MT's or 285/75r17 Toyo MT's. Im thinking about putting on a 1" Body Lift also to clear them. Anybody think they will fit? I have seen a pic with 4" SL and 1" BL with 35's but they looked like they would have to rub.

If you are going to go to the trouble of a Bl, might as well go with a 3", you'll want to go higher eventually, and just throw some 35's on there.

if it wasn't an 07 i would say you can do what im about to do, pull the fenders, bed and no body lift, then build a flatbed :D

im with the crowd that says, if your gonna do a BL then go with a 3" sure you have to extend a few things but that takes all of 5 minutes

I think that 3" BL's look like *** in my opinion...shows to much frame,spare tire, etc.

You can get gap guards, move the hitch up so the spare tires isn't seen etc. they look good when done well.

just to bring this back, yes body lifts look like *** on chevy's because a chevy shows more frame stock then a ranger with a body lift.

The ranger is the best looking vehicle with a body lift cause if done right by fixing the hitch and bringing the bumpers up and everything you can't even tell.
