Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Hi,

I've got an 85 sierra SWB and was wondering about what size tyres i could fit on it?

I've already fitted 2" longer Shackles, which gave about 1" lift.

Also, if i were to buy lifted springs (2" springs , total of 3" lift?) what other stuff would i need to buy? i.e longer shockies, longer brake lines etc.

if i did get the lifted springs rougly what size tyre would fit then?

Thank you

up to about a 29 inch tyre. with springs up too 31" you will need longer shocks try searching these this has been covered many times

look in the bible aat the top of the Suzuki section nd all your answers should be there

I had a 1 and a half inch lift and was running 30's(have sence gone to 3") and they just used to rub in the rear wheel arch so 29's should be fine. I'm going back down to 29's because with the 30's there was no low range. So stay at 29's untill you can get some rock hoppers. Thats what i'm doing.

As you will learn, either by research via the bible (link at top of page, well worth reading) or by experience. Once you increase your wheel diameter anything over 30", you need to start looking at reduction gears (search rockhopper or Calmini in the bible) otherwise you will wear out clutches quick and lack the ability to tackle tougher obstacles slowly.

you can fit the biggest rubber you can afford just depends on how much chopping you want to do ... have a look at virtul lifts

i've got some reduction gears in the for sale thread, if you choose to go that way..

Sorry everyone for not responding sooner, ive been in sydney and havn't had access to a computer.

Thanks alot to all of you who have responded to my question, the info has been a great help.
