All of your rides are decent.

Aint there someone out there with some 35" tires with a 5-6" lift.

I should have done more research into lifting 4th gens before I purchased one. I was sick to my stomach when I found out that they only offer a measly 2/3 lift (if you want to keep XREAS).
My understanding is that if you are looking to do any serious off-roading, which I assume you are since interested in 5-6" of lift, you do not want xreas on your truck.

Agreed. Sport means Street. Not Offroad. Try again. Here's what you can do when you dont have XREAS. (Credit Ulfr)

Net4n6, that basket is sick, what kind is it?

AmbideXtrous, what kind and size lift do you have?

Also, I am wondering, with a 2/1 cornfed would I be able to fit 275/70/18 tires? These are 33.6" tires, the 265/70/17 are 32", and the 285/75/18 are 34.1". Anyone with the 2/1 could you tell me if there is enough clearence to fit a 1.5" bigger tire?
 
here's mine... i graduate in june of 09, so more mods will soon follow!!!

but there is no turning back with these mods.


Can you please explain further what this means? Does maintenance become an issue with this kind of mod? I am not looking to go balls to the wall, I just want some ground clearance to expand my horizons.

Most 6" lift kits need to lower the front diff. It requires the front cross member to be cut and another cross member is bolted on in place of the removed cross member.

03 T4R sport. cornfed 3/2, 285/70r/17 BFG KO's.


Retco,

This is exactly what i might do, 3/2 cornfed with 285 mickey thompson's m/t.

How much did the lift, tires & labor cost you?

and disadvantages so far?

Ambidextrous,

that is something that I might do.

How much did that cost for the lift, tires & labor?

any disadvantages so far?
 
so any of you who have the 3/2 cornfed lift...did you have to get rid of the bumpstop in the rear?

Is there any disadvantages or concerns you would like to share about the lift?

Any rubbing with 285's?
 
shouldve posted that before.
Im running OME and 1" 4crawler/Roger Brown bodylift. Considering upping to a 1.5" body lift and fitting 34's next time around.
