Alright so most likely i have AAL, alright sweet. 3" plus the block / little crank should get me to 35's. Yeah i like squeeky3's truck. I want the same type design with tow mirrors and everything it looks nice. Well not exact same, have my own style to it xD

my truck was the same as squeaky3's truck when it was body lifted besides mines a gmc

glad everyone likes my truck

and yes i fit 35s on mine currently and had 36s on it, and have wheeled it with both set of tires, they clear but i had to do some trimming on the bumper and fender to make them fit when offroading

mines just a body lift, crank, and AAL, i love the stance and look of my truck....next year it will be a little taller with a sas on it w/o the body lift

depends on your rim selections, but i have nbs 16s with 36" tsl and i had 1.5" wheel spacers on it to stop them from rubbing the frame and then i had to trim the fender and bumper to clear them

If you get rims with a good offset or use spacers and lots of crank you may not have to trim. I would personally trim an decrank as much as possible

Alright one last question, if I have a 2" block in the bak and just crank in the front when I put on my 3" body lift will I need to extend wires, fuel line, and steering shaft thing?
