37s ?

[gkelly]

I am about to pick up 37s what is it going to take to get them on my 1st gen ? Already have a 3" body lift

A member named Thermo had 37's on his truck with 4" of lift. What I have seen him tell many people is that it is possible, but it takes some "massaging" of the fenders with a very large hammer. I haven't seen him active in quite some time, but it might be worth PM'ing him to see if it sends him an email or anything that gets his attention. He would have good instructions on what it would take.

Torsion Twist And Spacers Plus Some Trimming Will Get You Their OrA 6" Suspension Lift

 

[gkelly]

6" lift is what I want to do but $ is tight maybe ill just hang on to the tires till I can afford the lift

 

[sgtowing]

If you have a 3" body lift, You wouldn't need another 6" lift. You could do a small 3" lift and be good or like KWT2000, do a tt and spacers.

Anybody have experience with the torsion crank?

Anybody have experience with the torsion crank?

Not personally but most guys here who have lifted the truck have cranked the bars. I have never read anything regarding adverse effects other than maybe firming the front end ride a little bit.

 

[KWT2000]

if you think the ride is too harsh after cranking the bars up zone has front shocks with reverse valving that will bring the ride back to stock

6" lift will get you the room you need on top of the 3" you have. Walnuts Expy had 37" with that setup.

Zone offroad or Fabtech 6" is the way to go. Zone is cheaper $$$
4" lift can be done but only Thermo knows how

 

[gkelly]

Yeah I was looking at zone kits they are alot cheaper thats going to be my winter project

My truck had the Rancho 4" lift and a 3" body lift. I had plenty of room for 37s. The pic in the sig is with 35s.

any update? I'm sitting on 37's right now too. I three in body lift. tt. And I raised up my airbag sensors. looks like enough room. The only thing that is holding me back is switching my gears to 4.56. I don't want to mess it up running 3.75. I have 35's on now.

 

[gkelly]

Haven't done anything yet ...definitely going to do a 6" lift but debating on spacers and tt also how hard/easy is the tt and are those 37s in you pic?

If you can turn a wrench you can do the TT. Check this link out....
