now with this lift will i be able to fit 315/75/16's with this 3 inch body lift?

 

Yes, you should be able to. You may want to double check with Wandell on the backspacing, but I running 315/75/16s with just a 3" body lift and cranking the OEM torsion bar keys. You'll need to trim the front valence a little, but you should be able to run those with no problems...

Also, check out the classifieds on here, someone has the body lift you need (I think depending on your year truck) for sale for like $100, which is less than half of what the kit costs new...

 

yeah im purchasing that exact one! and now im going to purchase my tires for 750, it wont matter for back spacing because i can get spacers for them if it needs to be out more,

 

Avoid spacers at all costs if you can. Look for a 10" wide wheel w/ 4.5" backspacing.

 

I agree, that's what I'm running.

 

they are actually 12.5 wide tires im running. so im sure the back spacing is at least 4.5

 

alright wandell the rims are micke T's classic II rims, they are 10 inches wide and the rims are 4.48 back spacing, so i think that will work, thanks for all your help guys, ill ber letting you know how it looks and will post pics when im done,

 

well guys i got the truck all apart and ready to lift it off the frame tommorow. we will see how far i get with it tommorow, everything seems to be going smoothly. cant wait to get the 35's on! anybody have any tips on potential rubbing locations and any trimming that needs to be done? if so please let me know. Thanks Ben

 

cant wait to see it on that body lift, should look good congratulations on gettin it done.

 

yeah shes all lifted and everything is perfect, one minor problem is the the power steering lost a little of its easyness to turn, i think it might just be a pinched line or something, but othber than that its all good, i have ordered some new lugnuts because the stock ones dont fit on the mickey thompson classicII rims, so it will have the wheels on by tuesday and i will hopefully get some pics posted,

 

great im glad that lift is working out for you, i wanted soo bad to put it on mine, but i would have been tempted to go bigger tires again..

 

well guys i had the truck sitting there in the shop and the black can of spray paint clled my name, i started painting all the faded black material starting with the lower valance and the grille, next will be the bug shield and then the bed rails and rear window trim,

 

and we will see pictures when?
