spring measurements for gq

Post by mattlux »

Does anyone know the hub to guard mearsurement for gqs on standard or lifted?
Can anyone tell me how far to extend the rear lower arms on a shorty to stop 35s rubbing on plastic trim?

dont extend rear arms tyres will only rub on the rear of the arch extending arms will only make it worse. 5 inch lift will do the trick with rubing only on full compression

youshouldextend the rear arms if you go for a big lift as it will correct your rear pinnion angle. but it will not stop you hitting the gaurds. my truck runs 35's with a 6 inch lift and a rear quater chop and it hits tyre all the way around the gaurd 2 inches before the bumpstops.

the only way to make big tyres fit a gq wagon or shorty is to chop the gaurds or extend your bump stops
