3" body lift clearance question

Ok so i bought a PA 3" body lift last summer and once i get my truck back i think i might install it. My question is i have a springtech 6.5" kit on there with a 2.5" rear shackle. Im running 20" x 10" rims with a -45mm offset. I am going to run 37 x 13.50 mud grapplers or the toyo M/T's again and am worrying about clearance issues for the tires. thanks guys!

I think your going to have some issues because of the wide tires and wheels but send Buxton a message blue he pretty much has that same setup but with 35's so he could probably tell you how much clearance you'll have.

I pm'd you back blue. Here's a reference pic for you though. This is how much clearance I have right now up front:



As you can see in my sig pic, there is a lot of room in those fender wells for a bigger tire.

I only had them on for about a week so I didn't get to take many pictures with them, but here are 37x14 toyo A/T's. Just had some rubbing on the frame at full lock, but that was because of not having a shallow enough backspace on my wheels.
