I concur!! When I started out with my 4.5" Rusty's lift, I had 32" Pro Comp mudders and it was the perfect combination for craxy flex and no fender trimming required.

 

I'm about to pull the trigger on a RC 6.5 - what do you mean about longer axles???

 

ok first off to "dogger" im guna go with bfg mud terrains or what i really want is kumho kl71...and to "restoring" im sorry i meant Longer Driveshaft's with the 6.5 its so high they would be pitched pretty high and i would just worry about them and im sorry the vibration would drive me nuts....also i would strongly recommended a sye (Slip Yoke Eliminator) if u do a 6.5...but thats just me

 

ahh, thanks. I plan on a SYE/Tom Woods CV Shaft whether I go 4.5 or 6.5 - thanks for clarifying that.

 

I'm running the RC 4.5 short arm with 33-12.50/15's n I didn't cut anything!!!
The rub a lil when I turn all the way either direction but hell its not like UR gunna b cuttin the wheel like that while wheeling anyway......

 

:-/.... thought you were gonna trim a bit..

 

yea sorry about that i felt so dumb after i saw that....and 87xj thats great that makes me feel so much better...how is the felxin with them though

 

and about the cuttin im like 50/50 right now im not sure if i want to

 

Honestly I couldn't tell ya.... I play around in the mud A LOT when I have money for gas and I've jumped it dukes a hazard style over some 4 wheeler dunes down at the river and since I didn't have extended bumpstops at the time to compensate for the lift I pushed the sway bar ends through the fender wells on each side and almost through my battery (thanks to battery armor I didn't ) but other than that no damage was done!! Been running the exact same lift and tires for the past 2 years now!!

 

Buck, how much did you have to trim just going up to the 33's? Was it a huge difference with clearance issues with just the extra inch on the tires?
