3” RTE coils and 275/70-18 BFG AT’s (33”).
Skip the 2” lift, go 3”. You will not regret it, so many more tire and accessory options when you go 3”.

What mount do you have for the hi-lift?




Suspension: 3" TF Springs w/ 2" TF Shocks, & TF steering stablizer.
Wheels and tires: 275/65/R18

Love the three inch lift. I'm considering some new tires for highway driving though. These seem to wander a bit on the pavement.

Made my own. I've got these pictures from my build topic, in the link below.

It worked great and never caused any issues to door hinges or framework. Bought the pipe pieces at Home Depot, the threaded flange is for making work benches with pipe legs. Just weld that to the outer piece and thread it on. Had to play around with the length of the pipe coming through tire, because you want it to be just right. So that, while tightening up the nuts that hold hi-lift on...it draws the hi-lift tightly against the spare tire...which keep it from rattling or shaking the door a part.

What's the biggest tire you can run on a stock suspension? Also heard about a 1" spacer that could help. I measured the clearance going into the garage and she has just a few inches to clear it.

If you're referring to mine, they're Black Rhino Arsenals.
