Re: What needs to be done ???
You'd probably get away a 2 inch lift to fit the Claws as they only measure out to be 32" doing the body lift isn't hard but i won't get you any more suspension travel, so i say go with the spring lift. I have the 33x13.5 claws, and with the body lift and suspension lift, there's heaps of room. As for the rims go with Landcruiser ones as they will give you plenty of offset so the tyres don't rub anywhere.abauer01 wrote:hey at the moment i have a standard swb nh .. what will i have to do to be able to fit a set of 33 x 12.5 claws on .. like what size body lift .. suspension lift .. what offset stuff like that ..

Four wheels (Driving) good, two wheels bad.

Cruiser offset rims will increase your track significantly more than any Australian state allows (about 60mm increase vs 25mm limit for IFS vehicles) and massively increases your scrub radius. This places additional strain on your balljoints and steering linkages, and increases the kickback you'll experience offroad.

never really noticed a difference in steering feel... nor have i had to replace any steering components from fatigue or premature aging. Did notice the track increase though

p.s - what is meant by scrub radius???

Scrub radius is the difference between the line through your ball joints, your King Pin Inclination, and the centre of the contact patch of your tyre.
The bigger this distance is the more the wheel turns in an arc instead of on the spot. Of course fitting taller tyres to the offset rims will reduce the scrub radius again
