I would do 4” lift but I don’t want to cut up frame and so forth Somme one tell me this a great idea 😂

Doesn’t that rub like crazy turning? I’d think with the offset of a 12 wide with the 35”s that it would hit the fender easily.

Wrong.
My 2016 scab has crash bars.

Anyone happen to have 305/50/20's with a fox 2.0 level kit? Looking to drop down from my 305/55/20 to a 305/50/20 proxy or 420, curious to see what the gap looks like between top of tire and bottom of fender.

Oh sorry missed that part. Does it clear then? I really want to run 10 wides but was only going to level. Most of what I like seems to be in the -12 to -25 offset range.

Got my 1” rear block installed today and I’m much happier with the stance now. It gave me exactly 1 inch of lift (imagine that) which is exactly what I wanted. I went from a tad bit front high to about 3/4” higher in the rear. This is a 2wd that did not have a rear block stock.

Interesting jahenryford, I have an '18 SCab Sport in the same color. Looks like your bed is the 5.5 though, mine is the 6.5.

Ordered the Bilstein 5100 kit from Stage3Motorsports last Friday! The rears are already scheduled to arrive today! Apparently Stage3 is expected to get the fronts in sometime mid March. I'll let you know if they come sooner.
