hey guys just had a quick ?, right now im sittin on a 2in rough country susp (leveling kit), im thinkin just for now until i can save up 5k for my whole solid axle build, mabey throw a 1.5 body lift on...my only issue is that i honestly dk if i can clear 35s if i do this...i was just wondering if any of yall or your buddies have a 2in susp and a 1.5 body and if they can clear 35s? if any of ya have any input please let me know! with a 3in BL on my old 90 i was able to clear 35s without a prob, with 3.5 in total lift id think id be able to clear it, then again totally diff body lines

thanks

I tucked 315 75R16's on my 93' chevy with a sledgehammer and sawzall mod to the rear lower corners of my front fenders. That was with torsion keys cranked and a 3" shackle flip in the rear. That was a temporary mod until I could put the rest of my lift on. Long story short, I ruined two tires and found a killer deal on some used 35's so I jumped on it and made things work.

 

haha i did the got pissed took deadblow hammer deal do my front lower when i decided to throw 33x12.5s on my truck when it was stock height lol, and hey man ya gotta do what ya gotta do right? i did the same...just a diff story, my truck looked too much like a "grandpa's" truck and i got tired of hearin my friends say that so i took the rims n tires off my old k1500 and made em work on this truck

 

It all depends on the wheels.. Stock or near stock width and backspacing shouldn't be a problem.. Wider than stock and less backspacing not a chance

 

damn doesnt look like ill be clearing them then, i am gonna be buyin xd diesels a little later on in life so mabey since there less offset theyll fit?

 

Unless youre on factory wheels, no.

 

faaaaaaaaaaack this blows...id rather not go with the 3in body to get em to fit, just way too much frame for my liking

 

Run smaller tires?

 

Guy on GMFS took a 02 ec cab leveled it and 3" body lift and cleared 36" tsl's lol..

Like mentioned already only on stock wheels

 

i cant tell in the pic if you have a 1/2 or not. i have a 2500hd and i have 35's on it with no lift yet. torsion bars are cranked alittle. it rubs the inner fender just a tad. and that is with 35x12.50x17 on 17x9's with 0 offset i would say you will need a 3" body lift and a leveling kit to clear themon a 1/2 ton
