Not if you do it right. Like I said. 2.5" lift and 32.5 in tire. NO rubbing. Stock flares.

Completely discoed


A few simple mods.

1. Stock backspacing(no mod here, just saying)
2. Not over a 10.5 in tire, preferably narrower.
3. Extend front and rear bump stops 2-3"( I made mine, very easy)



Now if you disco and use longer shocks, make sure the shackles are the right angle etc to get the most flex out of the suspension.

You will need the following.


1. Extended brake lines( two front, one rear)
2. Trim one inch from your front fenders( you can do this and still use the stock flares.)
3. Remove rear bumper side moulding or trim or put up with it rubbing a little.

My tires are the same height as most 33s. I run 2.5" front, 2.5in rear of lift.
