I wanna add spindles and 35's but I don't think the ole 4.2 would like them very much

 

I would actually stay away from spacers or lift coils. On our 2wd trucks it puts a terrible angle in the u.c.a. and lower ball joints. I have a 2" lift coil and its wayyy outta wack. It was barely alignable, and without extended u.c.a.s ($$$$$$$$) you wont get in spec at all. I would reccomend a spindle in the front instead, it doesnt change your geometry at all. With spacers or coils you will also have to extend shocks. Not with spindles. I would reccomend getting the rc 3" kit and you will be only .5 of an inch under a stock 4x4

 

I think the 4wd is 2 or 2.5" taller. And do they make a 2" spindle? I feel like 3" would make my front tires look like little donuts. haha

 

The only height difference is a 2" block in the rear of a 4wd and torsion up front, which when uncranked isnt alot taller. And no they dont make a 2 the smallest is a 3 but with that kit youll be fine as far as tire size goes. Mine is 5.5" up front and 4.5" in the rear and i drove on 285's for a while and it still looked acceptable although i was skateboarding a little lol

 

i gota 3 inch lift on 315/75 cooper discovers on my 97 4.2 4x4

 

Can I run those 235/85/16 on a 2WD without a lift?

 

Idk I never tried mine til I got the lift but it'd be close

 

I would say no, they look pretty close now.. amd by 235 did u mean 285?

 

No 235/85/16 is a 32x9.50

 

Oh in that case u can fit them with a level kit
