try putting something like "lift kit" in the search feature

or "ifs lift" "suspension lift" etc...

Edit: I saw you have bj spacers already. Try posting in the wanted section.

I am a firm follower of the ways of "Craig's List!" Give it a try! You can find almost anything you want (or don't want{or never thought you wanted.})

Give it a try!!

I had the same issue with rubbung when I put my 35's on and I have a 4" suspenion lift (PRO COMP STAGE II) and still had to trim the pinch welds to make the tires work without rubbing. If I were you I would try the trimming the pinch welds thing first then if you need a lift still you have it out of the way and will be ready to roll.

A mild body lift is one option:
- http://www.4crawler.com/4x4/ForSale/...it.shtml#FAQ10

Or trimming/hammering back the pinch weld and firewall where the front tires rub.

For that, the best option would be a small wheel spacer or a set of wheels with less backspacing than what you have now.

Yes, a 4" bracket lift will raise the frame up above the tires, moving the point of contact away from the largest diamter of the tire. Many of the 4" lift kits do have a maximum backspacing requirement of around 3.5"-3.75" in order to keep the tires off of the modified steering/suspension components, so keep that in mind as well.
