i have a 4.5" bds on 33's now and want to fit 35's. My fenders are cut already but idk if they will rub much i havent been able to find anyone around my area with 35's on jeep or small bolt ford rims to try. I also was wondering what people thought about doing a 3/4" coil spacer and a 1" or 2" block with just a transfer case drop or whether i need to do the sye? just on a budget and trying to save a little money

you will still rub at 5.5 alittle even with extended control arms. but just bump stop it. and if you go above 5" a sye should be done but try the
drop and see if it binds. good luck

its alright still figuring it out im on here daily always researching whats working for people my next investment might be the injectors if its helping fuel mileage 10mpg is rediculous for a DD
if you want a low COG stay at 4.5. im running 5.5 and its pretty high dood. im on 33's with trimed fenders and i could stuff 35's with some bump stoping. just do a little extra trimming, and bump stop accordingly. your axle dosnt need to go all the way up on one side for it to go all the way down on the other.
