hey all.. any of you have reg cab short box pickups with 1 1/2" bj spacers and 33's on 15x10 wheels? I'm torn between wanting to do a body lift or just do a bj spacer lift to fit 33's on it and like the stance the trucks have when they have 15x10 wheels. I already have seen what they look like (like how much space in wheelwells and stuff) with 3" body lifts, but wanna know if the bj lift is enough to sqeeze 33's in there without it looking too tucked. so if you have pics post em up!!! thanx

it will look tucked, and youll have some trimming, do the bj spacers and 2in body lift.

You will not clear a 15x10 without a lot of cutting on the floor. Yeah you can run the truck at a taller ride hight and still have suspension travel but at the expense fo the CV's. BJ spacers increase downward travel but don't decrease upward travel. You are still going to have the same clearence issue at full compression.

You can clear 12.5's on a stock offset 15 x 7 by beating the pich weld flat.

This picture is my truck with NO lift (no body or suspension) at all and 33x12.5's on a 15x7's.

Actually, with BJ spacers & stock wheels (1st gen) you'll likely rub on the UCA with that width & any extension of the suspension. Mine rub a little with 235's.

I have the BJ spacers but have never installed them. I did the 3" BL and have 33x12.5 on 15x8 rims. I rub a little not much. I may add the BJ spacer at some point still not sure though.

BJ spacers aren't enough to clear. I did bj spacers, pounded the pinch seam and rubbed with 33x12.5 on 15x8 rims. After I put the 1" body lift on I didn't rub. I would have done a 2" body lift but my sliders were already welded on and I didn't want a big gap between them and the body.
Depending on budget and what you want to do with the truck I'd say bj spacers and a 2" body lift or just do a 3" body lift and pound the pinch seam if you don't have a plan for the rear, don't want to replace the shocks and don't want to get the truck aligned afterwards.

Some pix. of a '94 pickup w/ 33x12.50 tires on 15x8 wheels, 1" body + cranked up (~1-2") torsion bars (about the same as BJ spacers) on my web page:

Like this:





With 10" rims, you'll likely need at least 2" body lift with the BJ spacers. The truck above gets a little rubbing on the front wheel well with brand new tires (once they wear down a bit it works fine), with a bit of trimming/hammering in the wheel well:

This is my 4runner when it had 2" bodylift & BJ Spacers (bout 3" susp) with 33x12.5 Radial Claws on 15x10 MT Classic II's.

This is mine with spacer lift and the torsion bars torqed.It works well for what I need.
