Looks awesome. Definitely looks like you'll have some fender trimming to do.

 

Its fine flat, except cranking it around the corner, defintly not seeing much rough terrain though untill I do some trimming/body lift

pictures cant even describe how nice these tires are, and theyre quiet too

 

I told ya man, those are the best mud tires out there as far as I am concerned.

They will be the next set I get for my Tacoma when my MTZ's wear down.

5.29s are a perfect match for 35s my buddy is running the same setup on his 85runner. Not the best for interstate travel but he can actually accelerate in town not have to ride the slow lane like I do lol amd I have stock 4.10s. I have the km2s and love em!

 

From what ive researched 5.29 is nice but 4.88s would be a closer ratio to stock on the 3.4.... 5.29s for the 22re though

 

I agree - 4.88's will be your best choice.

looks good man..get some flared fenders. for the front and call it good, maybe some bushwhacker cut outs for the back.

 

X3. For a 5 speed, 4.88s will be great. I have 4.88s and 33s and it's perfect for an auto IMO.

 

yes it looks like im going to need some bushwackers for sure, the tires stick out about 3inches or so with the 1.25 spacer.

I found an elocker axle at the scrap yard for 550 but without the wiring so Ive gotta track that down and ill be all set to regear

 

I think your problem with rubbing in the front will be on the firewall. Cut out fenders wont help you all the much. But you are running spacers, so I dont know.

 

yes it is rubbing worse than I thought, not just the plasic wheel well cover but the firewall/pinch weld as you said, it even started to cut into my outter lugs. Im going to try to go pound it down right now. I need to invest in a highlift jack my floor jack wont even lift this thing anymore

 

haha yeah I bought a brand new jack from sears and it's not even close to being able to lift my truck. I just cut up some 2"x4" wood sections and screwed them together to get it up, then use big heavy duty RV jacks to keep it up there. Did you end up putting that body lift on?

 

I wish...it still hasnt came yet...im dying to get this thing offroad

 

Take a sawzall and angle grinder to it and you should be fine as far as the pinch weld goes.

Fink

 

I think if you grind that area too much, the floorboard in side the cab can practically fall out so be careful. The write ups that I've seen also re-weld the pinch weld after it's ground down.

 

oh really, good to know, thanks, il try that out

 

Here's a page with good info on how to do it right:

If you just cut and grind the pinch weld where it's even with the floorboard you'll be fine - I doubt you'll have to trim or cut any more than that with the body lift on there.

Fink

 

I thought he was not going to do the body lift?

 

Well I think I am going to do the body lift now, even though it is still not here. It looks like ill need to do ALOT more trimming without it. Im still rubbing with the wheels fully cranked just on flat ground, and I ground down my pinch weld so its even with the inner wheel well.
