Who's running 37's?

Will I rub on a 2" spacer lift?

No...but seriously, anybody here rockin dirty 7's? Mad CMC, hammer pinchweld, fender cut are obvious but what else are you guys doing? I'm not worried about rear, but front looks like it'll need some major love. Cut firewall? Tub ? Let's see some pics!

With 37's, you are getting to the practical limit of major components like... drivetrain, steering, brakes, etc. Sure, you can gear it so the engine is fine but the components mentioned above are at the limit - or beyond. For sure a massive reduction in design life can be expected.
Doing it for show is one thing. Doing it for daily driving or off roading is another thing entirely.
Good luck. It can be done of course and done right. But "right" in this case involves way more than fitting the tires so they won't rub.

 

Yep! Still am.

Only slightly rubs. But I’m too lazy to fix it.

 

Mine has a +3.5 long travel, 1.25” wheel spacer, fiberglass fenders, hammered pinch weld, cab mount pretty much cut off around the bolt - so front and sides.

Full tuck with no rub. Just some in reverse full lock.



Rear is pretty simple. Also long travel (but that doesn’t matter), 2” wheel spacers, fiberglass bedsides.

 

I wanna be like you someday.

 

Every time I am in the Bay, I always think I want to contact you and kiss that truck and lick those tires

Best looking 3rd gen hands down

*bowsdown*

 

Just a few parts and you are there! I bet you could just throw on some 2” spacers, trim the body mount, cut fenders more and you are good.

Trick is you just need to get your inside tire edge at full lock out past where you cut off the cab mount. The firewall and what not you can just hammer.

 

Thanks!

 

I took off my spacers to get rid of the rubbing lol. I still rub up top on compression though. I'll have an LT rig someday. Could be my 1st gen runner....

 

The dirty-five club must be getting full, all the cool kids are moving to 37’s now.

 

I ran 37s on my 2006. The suspenion looks to be very close to my 2017. 6in fabtech, 3in body, 3.5 Race Runner coilovers set at 2.5, bmc and 8.5 Alcan leaf pack in the rear. No rub. Daily driver for 6 years with no major issues.

 

Also ran 5.29s. Blew em out and dropped to 4.88 which was more practical.

 

I wish had better pics of mine.

 

^^ siicckk!

 

Now THAT is a light bar!!!
