Default leveling kit with 1.25" body kit run 35s

Can I run the teraflex leveling kit, body lift and 35s? And wheel it? Not huge rock crawling , more overland long distance type stuff. I don't disco.

Myself, I would have no problem with that. Lots of members running 35's with leveling kit and trimmed fender flares. With a TF leveling kit they state 33-34" tires. Not all tires are true 35" if stamped. Could be less. Might add spacers if stock wheels. I'm running 4 dr springs, TF leveling kit and now I can run 35" with that set up...I mainly do logging and service roads. I'm scared to do any rock crawling because I know then I will get even more addicted and want to mod even more!

If you're not disco'ing, you could easily run 35's on just the leveling kit and cut pinch seam. Cutting fenders would help significantly as well. Here's some pics of my 2.5" bb and disco'd flexing. You'll be fine. I have zero rub even when i had full fenders. I'd skip the body lift. Does nothing for you offroad. You can run 35's stock height on the street.

Ok. I want the body lift just to give some extra clearance with the fenders. I have the leveling kit with.monroe reflex shock and lo v e this setup. I have 33" tires on stock rims with spacers. I think I will be doing the body lift with bfg km2 35 inch.

I would probably cut the fenders myself, but the body lift will be fine as well for that setup.

I don't like the look of cut fenders or aftermarket offerings. So that's why I'm looking at the body lift. Easy, cheap and effective.
