5.5" to 8" lift on a 05?

[PTSUPERD]

I could not safely clear 35s with the offset on my 10.5" wide wheels with just the 4.5" Icon. Had to do a TEI to get there....

 

[PTSUPERD]

You guys also keep in mind this truck is not my daily driver. Strictly a toy. Tracker or Jeep pull daily duty....

You cant get away with a 5.5"-6" and 37's Garrett?

I had 37x13.5's on the orange truck with a 6" lift. Just needed to do a little bit of bumper/fender trimming that no one would even notice.

I run 37-13.5-22 with a 6in kit... Don't rub EVER.... I know a guy with 8in on a 06 cclb and he has 39.5 superswampers.... Just spaced the front bumper out a slight amount... You should call/email topguncustomz they always have been very knowledgeable/helpful with my stuff

If I had a standard offset on the wheels....I could clear them now...no doubt.

 

[PTSUPERD]

They hang pretty good:

 

[MINK]

What offset are they? I dont think you have a wide enough wheel to pull off the 37s with a 8" lift. I like your look now.

 

[smokinstroker]

Gare I had those on my truck with 37s. Was running a fab tech 6" 4-link. I trimmed MAYBE 2 inches of the bottom corner of the bumper.

 

[PTSUPERD]

-25.

hmm.

Got something of yours with me today. Text me in a bit for shipping / paypal info etc.

 

[smokinstroker]

Excellent. I owe you buddy.

Also it looked great IMO with those 37s tucked under there, but your truck is a work of art right now man.

 

[MINK]

-25.

Just add 2" wheel spacers - problem solved LOL


It's impossible to make your truck look bad so go for it if you think itll be what you want.

To go from an ICON 5.5" to 8" you will need the following:
6-7010 - 7"-9" Box Kit (Includes Sway Bar Links, Bump Stop Spacers, Pan Rod Bracket and Brake Line Brackets)
6-7015 - 7" Lift Dual Rate Coil-Spring
6-6514 - Front ICON V.S. 2.0 Aluminum Series Mono-tube Shocks
3-6508 - Rear ICON V.S. 2.0 Aluminum Series Mono-tube Shocks

Plus either a traction block setup at 9" or a set of 5" leaf springs with 4" block for the rear.

Just talked to Jason.... He said no dice

 

[Snake]

No dice? Then let's go with a 16" OUO 4-link. THAT will be magazine worthy for sure.
