Do I need to crank the torsion bars for 37's or 38's?
Do I need to crank the torsion bars for 37's or 38's?
If doing a 6+3 and say 38's, do I need to adjust the torsion bars or will the combo lift allow the 38's without rubbing?
Thanks

I fit 37x13.5x17's on a 6" fabtech lift with minor trimming. For sure youll fit 38's if you go 6+3BL. Theres people running 35-37's on just 3" body lift and cranked T bars. I would say yes, depending on the wheel offset
And if you put the fabtech lift, it will be the rear that will need leveling. I did the 1.5" Add a leaf and it was perfect

Personally, I would rather trim a little, if necessary than put the ball joints, tie rods, and cv shafts under hell from the angles. keep in mind they're also being put under a lot more stress turning 38's than turning stock 32's, and won't take so kindly to the harsh angles as they would with stock tires.
also, bear in mind ride quality will suffer as well with the cranked torsion bars.
You shouldn't need to crank the torsion bars at all with 6+3 and 37's. Trimming really won't be needed either. Some trimming on the valance/fender flares will probably be necessary to clear 38's unless you want to crank up the bars all the way, and open up the potential for increased wear on the front end.
also, bear in mind that cranking up the bars all the way will generally require the use of eccentric cam bolts, which provide more slack for correct aligning, but don't hold alignment as well under stress as the stock cam bolts will.

Depends on the width. A couple members have run 38x15.50 on 10 inch wide wheels with 4.5 inches of BS with a 6 inch Fabtech and a 3 inch body lift. They had to crank the torsion bars all the way and still had minor rubbing.
Personally, a 14.50'' wide a tire is as wide as I would go. Even then you will have *some* rubbing.
