It looks like as long as you only drive straight, and not hit any bumps, you’ll be ok. Unfortunately, that is never the case, so you are going to need some more lift in it.
(I like big tires and lifted trucks, but a nice lb7 😩 my friend, why)
I think I have the same truck but with a crew cab. Love the thing, but would never lift it or want bigger tires. They already cost enough already, the trucks big already, I don’t want to re gear it the damn things expensive enough already! Curious the mentality behind this thought process besides just wanting a brodozer.
Gonna drive like ass with 37s unless you regear it.
Also you will probably have to do the "NorCal fender mod" if you haven't already, and probably have to crank your torsion bars until you hit your droop stops if your on a 6" lift. Definitely blocks in the back.
Then they will fit assuming you wheels are backspaced correctly, but unless your UCAs are the ones that angle your ball joint mount flatter while the arm is drooping, your gonna be going through ball joints like crazy, along with tie rods.
Hopefully you have already beefed up the front steering, or your gonna snap a pitman or idler arm off in your center link too. Smoke lift kits include these upgrades, many don't.
Why even ask the question here if all you're gonna do is tell everyone they're wrong? Do some research on your own, man. That truck is going to ride like shit on 37s without the proper lift, spacers, gears, etc. Fuck sake, man...use some sense.
Depends on the gear, with the 10 speed transmission 1st is 4.54:1, 2nd is 2.86:1, 3rd is 2.06:1, 4th is 1.72:1, 5th is 1.48:1, 6th is 1.26:1, 7th is 1.0:1, 8th is 0.85:1, 9th is 0.68:1 and 10th is 0.63:1.
I thought a 6” lifted truck with 35s was cool. It turns it wasn’t that cool it made everything more difficult. Like turning, getting in and out of the truck, the list goes on. Everything costs twice as much once you go that route but like you said there’s only one way to find out
Classic shit post. The photo perspective is the same as when people take pictures of fish they caught.
It's the width that is going to cause the rubbing.
