rc lift

[mattr87]

im looking at buying a 4" roughcountry lift for my 87 supercab. it says it clears 33x12.50 tires with no rubbing or trimming of the fenders. has anyone done this?

 

[mhughes165]

yes and ull be fine with 33's aslong as they arent on stock backspaced wheels

 

[mattr87]

cool. they are on different rims with alot more offset

One more question will the lift be smaller because its a extracab?

Yes, although you can add some washers (or a spacer) underneath the lower coil seats to boost it back up.

Also, I would think wheels with close to 0 offset would be best. More offset will likely cause the tires to rub the fenders more.

i already got my tires mounted on some rims worse case senario i put on a bodylift or do a little trimming. and is there any special washers to use to lift it ?

Naw, just flat washers with a 1-3/8" I.D.

Welding them together so they don't shift around will help if you stack them higher up than the hex head on the stud.
