Yep I do know you have to trim now. not worried but it just time and space wise. Right now I'm just doing routine maintenance and the lift and fenders will be done later on.

SundaysHero, are you installing the lift yourself or having a shop do it? If a shop, you might be able to package the lift and bushwackers into one job, Might be easier that way.

35's will fit with proper bumpstops. Mine is just under 4" with 33's.

I have pics of mine on 33/12.50 and 4.5 if want . There is quite a bit of room left it wouldn't be "stuffed" but I'm going with 5.5 coils when I go up to 35
