nice truck mabutler! how much does a body lift installed cost? well, i guess i would have to get new wheels. spacers wouldn't be safe would they?

 

I got mine for a very good deal because I know someone that owns an off road shop so I won't tell you unless you really want to know, but the lift itself will run you about $300 and install would probably be about another $300 or 400. The installation will vary in each region.

Most people think spacers are bad and there are some very good reasons for it because half of them are crap and could kill you. However, with quality parts I have known a few people to run them and like them a lot. Here is a good place to get them if that is what you want to do.

I could run a 305/55 on my setup if I cranked the torsion bars up a tad more.

Inmywhitez, I think you could probably run them, you just need to do a bit of trimming on your inner fenders and crank your torsion bars if they're not already.... any pictures of your setup? Also, if you want your tires to stick out, you'll need a wider wheel. Your wheels probably have 6" of backspacing or so

 

i don't have any current pics, but i will try to get some. i do have ford keys and have them cranked a little. my front sits a inch higher than the rear. i just dont want too much rubbage even if i cut the plastics. thanks for yalls help.

 

You can't run a 305/55 on your truck the way it is now unless you don't mind your trimming to include sheet metal.

If you are wanting to go with a taller tire, then you will need another form of lift.

If you just want wider, then look into new wheels or spacers.

00Silverado, what is your setup and what is a "tad"?

 

I'd probably have to crank the torsion bars up between .5-1". Setup is stock keys, inner fender trimmed already from my old 285s on the front of the drivers side because of the washer reservoir. I could fit them because my wheels are 20x9.5 with 6.125" BS. You have 20x10s probably with 4.5" bs, hence your need for the BL.

 

u have any pics of your set up 00silverado? i think our wheels are almost the same in dimensions.

 

 

looks good! those are 305/55/20's? they look more like 50's on your truck? how much did u pay for the Nitto Terra Grappler 305/55/20? thanks and once again, nice truck!

 

They're 305/50s, but I'm positive I could fit them 55s if I wanted to. Being that I just bought the tires I won't be switching them out for awhile I hope.
This guy on another board runs a 305/55 on 20x8 Centerlines with 5" bs. He has GK torsion bars and Ford Keys.
