blocks??

cant lift the front end cheaply. adding addaleaf or blocks to the front(which is illegal) will cause your front end to bow the tops of the tires way out. just cut the fenders open more. i clear 40's on my 86 with no lift......

Wait a sec, DC you said 40's? isn't your turning radius bad?

DieselCrawler 12-07-2011 07:43 PM

nope. tires just barely rub the springs, and i never touched the stops.

and illegal in some states. pa will only allow 1/4 spacers max. also tires cant stick out past the fenders at all. and dont say fenderflairs. they can only be 3 inches over stock. lol
