How to fit 37's
 
Other than an 8in rize what options do i have to fitting 37's on a 04+ f150? For instance 6 inch suspension with a body lift (dont care for the body lift) vs 6in susp. with some type of leveling kit. Jw whats the best setup to achieve the 37in tire. In the process of selling my 4x4 ranger on 33's and its time for me to step up to the big boy trucks!!! Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!

here's another option you may not have considered: get a 6'' kit, and some high clearance fiberglass fenders. that way your truck won't look cut to hell to fit 37's, and you won't have bad cv/ball joint angles from the additional preload on the coilovers.

i thought of that but i seen one like that on like 37's or 38's on craigslist and didnt really like the look...

i just got a 6 inch suspension with a 2.5 inch leveling kit stacked on top and a little cranked on my coil overs and i fit 38's

hes 2wd

thorherc67 Aug 29, 2009 04:15 PM

yeah i am 2wd so no cv angles. and the angles aren't bad at all and no it rides as smooth as it did with just the 6 inch kit

I would say 6 inch lift with adjustable coil overs then AAL in the rear

i have a 6'' lift with bilsteins 5100s up front and a aal in the rear. i clear 37s

liljoe0985 Aug 30, 2009 01:13 AM

what lift you running secline?

liljoe0985 Aug 30, 2009 01:15 AM

which would offer a better ride? 6in susp. with a leveling kit or a 6in susp with adj. coilovers up front?

adjustable coils for sure! but honestly the other option isnt bad either

liljoe0985 Aug 30, 2009 01:19 PM

aight cool....i kinda would like the idea of just buying the 8in rize but thats some serious $ right there right? I mean isnt the front like almost 3000 alone? how much would the back rize be? And if i can get the same benefits with coilovers and a 6in susp and save a lil money, which i guess coilovers aint cheap either, then id rather do that...but i dunno im up for suggestions!

I want to fit 37x13.50x22s on my 07 harley truck but with only a leveling kit and body lift. Does anyone know of some pics with this setup? I at least want to see the what the lift looks like.
