Anybody else running either of these yet, or am I the Guinea pig?

Slight Rub here, but only on a full crank in reverse.

Wow AT. Those Nittos look at least as fat as my 305 BFGs. Love the whole look of your truck including the color; I've not seen one set up quite like that.

I used them as a reference to build my own set using all heim joints and 1.5 inch tube there's a pic of the Panhard bar
On page 14 still building the truck so haven't been able to test yet. The upper arms are tight to tires will need spacers or offset wheels. I didn't notch them like spohn did.

That's a super clean rig! Not sure why I feel like everybody else's trucks look so beefy with the 285/70/17, and I feel like mine looks tiny. [emoji20]

Going to go bigger here soon, if that doesn't cut it I'm doing a 6"!

I had the same issue until last week when I installed the wheel spacers. The tires were hiding under the truck too much. Hope this helps.

My wheels are 17x9 and have a little more offset, the wheel is about even with the fender flare. Hoping a 305/70/17 or 33/12.5/17 will give the stance I want. If not I'll probably swap wheels rather than put a spacer on a wheel that's already kind of far out.

Ok after seeing the pics, without a doubt you need those spacers! Especially with the flares, it doesn't look right at all in the back without them.

Looks like the Nittos bulge out a bit at the sidewall, so they look fatter even if the tread is 285.

I've used spacers (adapters actually) for many years with zero issues. Even launched my t-bird hard enough to bend an axle in the 8.8 rear with no issues on a 1.5 spacer. However the tire shops (discount tire in particular) have given me grief over them.

 

[Flexx]

I'll take some pictures of my truck when I get a chance. If I bumped up tire size and added spacers how much rubbing might I encounter?

I am more a fan of the stuffed big tires with smaller lift, than wide offset and smaller tires if you get what I mean.

Just installed one of my N-fab's today, the other one has to wait until I get the a/c line fixed due to a drill bit deciding to give it a kiss. Not sure if I like how it makes it look less tall but it's still huge in person. Any thoughts?

 

[Flexx]

Those look clean. I'm not a huge fan of steps. But I've left them on my jeep and Tahoe for mama and the kids. I'm used to them by now. I'm a big guy so don't need or use them.

Yea they're for the Fam. But I may need them when I throw a 3" B.L. on it next.

Nice. That will work great, they will help "hide" the frame

285/70/17 Terra Grapp. Was looking to go 295's until I did the spacers. Now I'm happy until BL and 35's

Looks good man!

Both mines on 35s for now! Lift keys spacers, and a 3" BL I love mine! Can't wait to see your progress

2.5/3" lift on 33x12.50x20s

 

[BigDaddy13440]

Z71 Springs came on Tuesday, 2" rear spacers, 2" shock extensions and the Torsion Bar tool came today. Waiting on the keys for the front, and the KYB Monomax shocks for all four corners.

My 'Burban ain't pretty, as I've hacked up the rear quarter panels to get rid of the rot. Don't know if I'm going to do overlay panels and Rhino-Line from the body line down, OR I may just boatside the rear quarters, 1/8" plate steel from the body line straight down to the frame. Get rid of the rear bumper, and fab up a modified roll pan, also down to the frame. Thinking I may get a second set of the stock fender flares, stretch the front and rear wheelwell openings, and combine two flares into one to cover the stretched opening.

I'm running 285/75/16's on nothing more than a 1 1/2" crank on the factory keys, no rubbing on 16x8 rims with +6mm offset (factory's are -25mm), sticking out about 1 1/4" past normal.

Lifting it a full 3" in the front, 2+" in the rear, and enlarging the openings, I'm thinking 315/75/16's will be next... or maybe put some 20's on it, and run some 325/60/20's...http://www.ebay.com/itm/PIRELLI-Sco...S-8-Ply-325-60-20-Quantity-of-1-/172115520433
