Go 42’s, 40’s may be too small. If you go back a couple pages i posted pic of my old k5 with 8” BDS + 1” zero rate and 42’s.

I get it . . I like that old 70's early 80's huge fender gap look .
Can’t wait to see it all mounted up!
Either way will look sweet. Lookin forward to it.
Holy shit dude, your tire Pic is everywhere on Facebook. Seen it on a dozen sites I bet.
Pic on truck or it doesnt count and is just click bait!
At least set it up so you get royalties!
Long weekend. Regular work pretty slow right now.
No time like the present.
It does feel like it’s gonna be another 106 degree day though. My goal today is to get the new steering box on and the drag link measured for welding.
Tomorrow, turn it around and start the rear. Have some family over. Finish the rest up Monday.

GASP! No sawzall, more lift!
Carolina squat’n
Might be both. It’s not wide enough if I’m being honest. I’m gonna put some 1-1/2” spacers on it. So it’s definitely gonna rub. I was thinking of cutting some 1/4” spacers for body lift increments to dial it in. Probably start with 1/2” if I’m guessing.
It will probably have the Texas tilt that’s about 2” low in the rear. I don’t know what to expect tbh. I might hate it. I might really like it.
Is texas tilt actually a thing?
Do you already have a zero-rate in your pack? That could help a little bit in front and (or just) rear to reduce cutting and help level if needed

Also - if you put 1.5” spacers in front, wont that make the lockouts inset relative to the hubcap opening? I know thats a non-starter.
I like the hub caps but it’s not too late for some 14” Barts. Just sayin….
I’m about 15 years too late for some barts!
Lol kinda. It’s a squat without the grindr membership.
I do have a zero rate in there already.
It’s 8” springs, zero rate, and a 1” body lift.
You’re exactly right about the cap and spacers. Enter, 77 np203 hubcaps. No cone but the large bore. It’s not perfect but it’s close enough where it’ll ride.
Ain’t got around to it ok! But for real, this thing is way too big. I love it. I found an exhaust shop that potentially could make me some 4” bed bars.
