The main thing I am wanting to do is fill the wheel wells better. How close is clearance if I don't raise the torsion bars at all?

: Must I raise the truck for H2s to fit? hoot 02-14-2004, 01:42 PM It's not the wheels it's the tires. I have 33" dia and have to raise about 5 turns on the adjusters = 1-2" turboost 02-14-2004, 01:44 PM I will use the H2 tires...those are about 33"s right? HDDuece 02-14-2004, 09:25 PM Think the H2 tires are 315/70-17 which makes them about 34.5". I went with 6" lift and 315/75-16 tires and still had to do a little trimming. Amric 02-15-2004, 12:49 AM Do alot of cutting, and you won't have to lift. These pictures are actually 1" lower than stock front, and 2" lower rear. http://www.ntinnovations.com/Pictures/Truck1.jpg http://www.ntinnovations.com/Pictures/Truck2.jpg http://www.ntinnovations.com/Pictures/Truck3.jpg Haven't washed it since October, but it will look much better when spring comes. wakeboarder 02-20-2004, 03:34 PM Drop the tire size to 285/70-17 and it will only need a little tb lift. Road Boss 02-20-2004, 07:24 PM Amric, did you lower the truck? What size are your tires? Amric 02-20-2004, 07:50 PM They are 315/75R17 or 35" by 12.5". The truck is dropped 1" in front and 2" in the rear. Rides and handles great. No rubbing. holland_cherokee 02-21-2004, 02:15 AM Amric how ya been didnt know you had a duramax now did u get rid of the lifted WJ i am on MJ met you up at grayling with DUC aka kodiak my screen name is holland_cherokee cool man and also nice jeep i like it hdmax 02-21-2004, 07:20 AM I must be one hell of a lot harder on my truck then most of you here. I have yet too put my Hummer (summer) wheels on, But with 2-2.5" of lift in the front and 2+ in the rear, running stock wheels and 285/75/16 BFG A/T They rub several times a week. Not on the highway, but in my driveway, and off road.

I was suprised to find there were a few Michigan Jeepers here. My wife totaled her car, so I had to give her the WJ. She just takes it back and forth to work, so I took the lift off to lower the COG. I got the 2500HD to tow my Wrangler. When I hit the dirt, its always in a Jeep. I'm sure if I took the 2500HD off-road, it would rub, but on dirt roads or our Michigan pot hole filled roads, it works great. | ||
