Pics of a TWO must have Tools

Just getting ready for the lift, starting this weekend. 4" Teraflex Full Systems.
Removed the Rock Rails to do the Body Grinding. Luv those Sparks, next to the gas tank of course.

Pics of the New BFG M/T's and the Mickey Thompsons. Backspacing makes the fit in the spare no problem, just not much brake light visable. no worries.

I also found to tools which made take the rails off and doing the grinding really easy!!!

Nice ....Whats the backspace on the Mickey's?

They are 17x9 with 5" B/S. I will let you know if we get any rubbing. Im a bit concerned but i dont know till they go on. We are going to put it on the ramp and put it throught the paces.

Looks good, could you post what size tires you're using, and a picture from down the side of the vehicle (to see how far they stick out.)

Thanks!

I am running 17x9" with 5" backspace and I don't have any problems. The spokes of the wheel are a little close to the calipers, but not dangerously so. This is due to the design of the wheel though, not the size or offset.

The only rub I had was on the air dam. I just pulled it off, but it was very minor rubbing (only happened at full lock in reverse). I could have trimmed, but I think it looks better without the air dam anyway.
