I have my 3.5 ordered, but have a question about the high steer.
It seems a few people have some issues with contact. Someone suggested it was because the kit was designed for a higher lift. In the off chance I have contact, would it make sense to instal a spacer/leveling puck to gain the extra bit of lift needed (1/2 or 3/4” extra)? If I do, would shock extension brackets be ok if I’m pushing outside the max travel of the monotube shocks I ordered? I told myself I wasn’t going beyond 3.5”, so there was no reason to buy the upgraded shocks. Now I’m second guessing. I have a steel bumper and heavy winch, with plans for a stinger eventually.
My rock monsters shipped yesterday, I might be shopping for 37’s this weekend. Current plan is Irok radials, but if anyone else has suggestions I’d appreciate them. I’ve been tempted to push to 38.5” or 39.5”, but not sure I want to do that to my D44’s. Regear is scheduled for late July to 5.13’s.
Edit: if you are suggesting a tire, can you tell me what backspace (or rim width and offset) you are running at?
