I was pretty surprised at the difference.



Looks like a lot more than a 2 inch diameter difference.

And quite a bit heavier too :buttkick:

Now it has ruined me. I must get 35s on the Ranger.

Maybe I'll put those Bushwacker cutouts in the garage to use after all...

My credo
If you're not making mistakes, you're not learning.
as opposed to fake or false lift?:thefinger:
Since a suspension lift only raises the truck and not the axles, there technically isn't any true lift. Your axles are still the same height from the ground as they were before and still hit the same stumps/rocks/fire hydrants/etc.

Though not all is for not, you have improved your approach, departure and breakover angles, albeit only slightly.

*edit: Looking nice btw!

I had 237/75s on my 88. Unfortunately, I can't find any pics, but it looked great on the truck. Now my 31s look tiny on my f150.:annoyed:

My old 33's tape out to 31" and the 35's I just put on tape to 34"

3" difference overall. You can tell the difference.

Yo,
Yeah, the difference can be big, especially if you are changing brands as well. Looks Good!
