you did, cept the 3 inch body lift..

 

[stumpbuster]

nuttin wrong with the BL bro, i woulda done the same for a lift, exactly. that 9" you gunna net is gunna be STOUT.

now... on the other hand, you can clear 40's with ease with that amount of lift, so there is no way i woulda gone with 37's.

also, you gunna hate the 14" wide rim, they gunna look like balloons

shoulda went with 12" wide at the MOST. i been runnin 10's for years and always wanted to go with 12's.

so, YEA, im super pumped for ya bro, you gunna be happy either way, as im sure ya did yer research and are prepared.. except for maybe
AXLES??!!

Thanks guys! The superlift brand was not in stock so I went with Pro comp kit. I would think when you place an order online it would tell you if the item is back ordered. If I hadn't looked into it this morning all that would have been shipped would have been the tires and body lift. Oh well, see if I can remember how to install a suspension lift.

I have 14's and like them but wish now that I am doing a restore I wish I had 12's. Those 37's may rub with only 9" of lift, my 39's rub with 14's.

37x14? on 14" wide wheels? Hope you don't ever plan on airing down. IMO thats too wide for those tires. Won't be any fun setting that bead

Why you gotta be so negative?! Just kid I appreciate the input. I tried getting back some 15x12 wheels that I traded for this 15x14 wheels but the guy had already sold them . I wish I had kept those other wheels.

 

[MTBLAZER89]

Haha not trying to be negative dude! Just pointing out the facts. I have 14.50's on 12" wide Welds and they are no fun to seat!

 

[BlackBourbon]

I have 39/14.5's on 15x8's. Bead set pretty easy

 

[Avery4jc]

I have 35/15.5-15's on 10" wide wheels and I like it. It makes the sidewalls buldge a little but I've never had a bead problem even aired down to single digits in the sand.

Those 37's may rub with only 9" of lift, my 39's rub with 14's.

^ this

Ratzilla used to have a K5 with 6" lift, 35"SX's on 14's and they rubbed bad until he put on a 3" body lift.

 

[Adventurous 4x4]

I clear 37's with 3" of lift and a little cutting.

You probably don't have 14" wide wheels.

 

[big454blockchevy]

Now I'm really starting to worry about my tires rubbing even with the 3 inch body lift . Well , if they do rub that means I will be doing some fender trimming.

 

[Avery4jc]

What backspacing did you order on the wheels?

 

[thebird00]

12 inch superlift kit. 39.5 Boggers on 15x14 steel wheels. 2.5 inches of back spacing. They rubbed like crazy offroad. I did some slight fender trimming. What wheels are you running, btw?

 

[big454blockchevy]

Well, I got some 15x10 wheels now. So it should be better as far as rubbing . I'll try and post a pic.
