Body lifts are for the bros at the mall. I am 100% against body lifts and diff drops, couldn't pay me to run one.

It's like wearing a belt and talking to a kid who's pants sag. He doesn't respect who I am, therefore ignores me. The only difference is, he probably has a body lift, and I don't, therefore he doesn't respect me and ignores me hahaha

The new tires look sick!! And I can see how impossible it is turning with the sliders and all that. I had a question for ya; do you think 35's would fit on my 4runner with 3" lift and the stock rear bumper and no sliders? Would it be driveable on road till I can bust out the hammer and angle grinder to clearance it out? (also I'm thinking of going with 35" toyo open country MT's)

Always plan on rubbing. Especially with 35s. I would say your definitely going to rub while turning.

Yeah I guess so but I guess the real question is could I drive with it like that, just take wider turns, get wheel spacers. etc. The wheels I plan on getting have a -12mm offset, I'm not too good with understanding wheel specs but I know that a negative offset will poke out more. So would that help?

My rims have 4.5" backspacing and I rub the frame just before full lock, but it isn't bad or anything. You still won't be able to drive if you don't take a 5 foot sledge hammer to your firewall and pinch weld though.

I have plans for clearing the front, but gotta wait until my friend isn't busy to help me out with it. The back I'm still working on. I fabbed some 1/8th inch bumpstop extensions that extend the factory bumpstops by 2 inches, but that wasn't enough. So I'm gonna cut and weld a little in the back to clear everything.

I read that you had to do a 10 point turn just to get out of discount tire, but how did you drive on the road back to your place then? lol And yeah I know I have to mod the pinch weld but hopefully It could hold off till I got home?

My pinch weld was already clearanced before I had the tires mounted. I drove home by almost never turning. Just making really wide turns and barely turning the steering wheel.

Turning shmurning. It's overrated. People will get out of the way
and if they don't...well hell that's what airbags are for.

Hey Connor, looks like you're still running the Superflex's out back... What's your hub to fender measurment? How are they doing with all the weight you've got back there now?

They're doing very well with the weight. I like them, I wish they weren't as tall, but oh well. I will measure the hub to fender once I put my rear bumper back on, had to take it off to work on the rear pinch weld. The rear now officially clears 35's at full bump with no rub
