Yes if you flex it much. Sry but you need a small budget boost to clear 30s.

Usually that consists of a spacer on the front coils and a shackle extender on the rear springs. As for the lift it usually amounts to about 2". One of our members(Howler GT) is making the spacer or they are available as a comercial product. Several other companies make the shackle kit. An example is RC and Terraflex, but there are others.
