With a 3" lift 35s scrub at the back of the front gaurds, need to remove front mud flaps and heat up the plastic inner gaurd and remould the "bump" out of the way.
Rears scrub on the inner gaurd just above the chassis on full up travel. To do it correct you will need to extend the sway bar mounts ...

we can make them with rubber bends or my speciality is welded stainless mandrel bend snorkles.
Give Benno a call and we can hook you up.

As for the first question i think personaly that 3" is a good lift as it doesn't require huge mods eg brake lines sway bars extensions adjustable panhards etc. and they handle much better. I had 5" lift in my 80 for around a month before replacing it with 3". I run standard 16x8 steel rims with 35s ...

One thing to remember, Tube bars are great for competitions, but they dont protect like a normal ARB/TJM style bar.
This is one thing i actualy agree with you on they dont protect like them because they are much better and stronger.
Any custom fab job worth its salt should be far more superior in ...

Any tire over 33" is going to act as a detonator for those 4.7s, unless you drive it like you're driving Miss Daisy.

Khos,
You will run into maximum duty cycle problems with your injectors with a supercharger unless you fit a tornado chip or similar that lifts the maximum duty cycle. The 14CUX sets the max duty cycle at something like 75% which is not enough at high revs. I think Bruce Davis has access to either ...
