gonna be running 4 inch super lift front springs with a dana 60 and a diy 4 inch shackle flip out back with new 3/4 springs with a dana 70

i know i can clear 35s but i really want 36's but i cant find them for the KM2's

could i run 37's without fender trimming?
 
I doubt without trimming. Maybe a small body lift and zero rates and shackles will get you where you want to be
 
I've got 6" superlift front springs and a D60 with 35's and i can get them to rub the back side of the fender pretty easily. Actually, the back side of my fenders are pretty bent up from hitting.
 
Third sticky from the top in the Garage. :deal: :rolleyes:

well thats more of a what will my truck look like with these size tires and lift,

my question was more of can i fit 37s with 4 inches. im sure sitting on level ground they will like in the pics but im wondering more about rubbing when flexing.

if your running 35s i may just stick with the that then since your rubbing,
 
I would say if you weren't gonna flex then yes they could fit. But to start flexing then no
 
35s and 4inches got me into a real pickle, when I was crossed up, stuffed and had to back off a obstacle. Pulled the fender right into the wheel well, almost sliced my side wall open and just about tore the springs out from under the truck.

My suggestion is get the cutting wheel and sawzall out now, before your trunk monkey is out prying the fender out of the wheel well with a crowbar. That will not buff right out.
 
Simple answer is no:deal: GM fenderwells just aren't large enough for anything larger than a 33-35 without moving the axle forward, and then you have to trim under the park light.

I ran Superlift 4" springs and I could make my 33's rub under flex and turning.

You almost have to trim that lower part of the front fender, or your tires will crunch it up anyway.
 
I have 8" front springs, and 37 iroks. I have hit my fenders enough that they are bent out of the way. With my old 6" springs, if I hit a mild pot-hole with the wheels turned they would rub.
 
i have an 8inch and 37tsls, when flexed hard they rub, i added the not so much liked 3inch body lift and all is good...
