Do they rub anywhere? Should give the axles a good test out.

They rub on that cross bar at the front, nothing 3" spacers or adjusting the steering stops wont fix.

The GQ axles should be up to it unlocked.

I assume you've got 2 inches in the body and springs or is it more than that?

1 & 3/4 body and 4" coils. Oh, and polyairs in the back to limit up travel. Thinking about them for the front as well.

Why note just extend bumpstops instead of using Polyairs?

What you doing for gearing?

I reckon it doesn't look as big in the photos because of the 4" spring lift. It does kinda look like a 35s/2" and body combo, until you work out that those 16s come to the sills, with roughly 10" of tyres below them, meaning those sills must be nearly 650mm high!

Because when I'm running 35's etc I can keep all my wheel travel.

These tyres are not ment for this truck anyway, they are for my other rangie when it's finished.

Just thought i'd see if they fit.
