Im thinking about putting my 33's on my dual cab trayback gen3 work lux. the manual 3RZ gearing sucks. Revs at 3k at 100kph...
15x8's with i think -11 offset.
Is this a bad idea with no lift? IE would it rub to the shthouse?
Its pretty much only road driven. (sorry for highjack).

if its still a prob, you could try putting a longer bolt with another nut as a spacer on the centre rear knuckle seal things.

Make sure you use a something as a spacer & do it up tight, otherwise you might bend this bolt.

because it zook already had a 4a motor in it, so it would be easier to keep it 4a series based, and really vit motor has nothing on a 4age. Suzuki motors are pretty lame when it comes to power/smoothness and upgrading.

4-6" and a shitload of guard cutting. The more cutting you do the less lift you need.
I have about 4.5-5" (3" spring, 2" body) have done some trimming on the guards and my 33's still rub!
You wont fit them without cutting the guards unless you want it to be ridiculously tall and unstable.

it could be ok with your set up.
any offset on the rims would help
No. 2" spacers would be pushing it. You'll have alot of offset which equals alot of tyre swing lock to lock (scrub radius). The outside edge of your tread will eat the bottom of your flares/firewall.
I'd recommend JUST enough ...

I don't think he was planning on welding the front. I think its worth putting a auto locker rather than welding the rear. Makes it a whole lot more user friendly. Theres one for sale on auszookers going cheap and it new.

youve been advised against putting that size tyre on that size rim? = Bogus.
Or you've been advised against putting that tyre & rim combo on a sierra? = has some merit.

Check they arent allowing to remove & refit the leaf springs to the vehicle.
Cant rememer what i spent, wasnt anything near that though...
If your leaves are flogged out & have no lift, then I would look at new ones anyway. A reset will probably only sag again after time.
I only had one leaf pack ...
