The Stupid Lowered Questions Thread

[91obsHD]

I'm running 225x70x15" on the front and my wheels have a 4" backspace. On the rear I'm running 285x70x15" on wheels that have a 4 1/2" backspace. The rear fender lips have been rolled. They fit perfect and really fill out the wheelwell.

Thanks, I'll Look Into That Size

If all that was done and it still sits that high I don't know what to tell you unless you want to do a lot of fab work,

Yeah, we need pictures from underneath. With all you say it has, it should be dragging the hitch....

New here but not new to forums.
Been trying the search for over 2 days now and cant find what im looking for...
for those that are bagged and bodied. would like to see pics of the notch for outer tie rods.
also, i know that MMW seems to be the only one making notchless kits, but they are 8 weeks out and i need another option? is anyone runnung another kind? lastly, ive heard of people putting factory tie rods in a press and bending just enough to clear frame? sounds silly

i can post in another sections if need be, just seems like this particular thread gets answered fairly quick
thanks in advance

Notching it out for the tie rods isn't hard just cut little by little till your laid out then use a pipe cut in half and weld in.

Wanting to do a lift shackle. Currently has an axle flip and I just want to level the rear out with the front. Was thinking maybe a 1-2 inch lift shackle. Are they easier to buy or fab up yourself? Thanks.
