Level with 285/70/17's

[Kuhndog-11]

@Kuhndog-11 can you post up-close pics of the trim job? I am contemplating the same lift/level and would like a visual. Especially of how much of the bumper support you trimmed. Awesome project and write-up. Also saw your rig on CustomOffsets.

Both sides are the same trimming just opposite. You can see where I took the screw from the original location on the support and moved it over the secure the inner liner. It's hard to get a picture but I have about 1/4 inch if not a tad more clearance at full lock and throughout the whole rotation of the tire. the back isn't an issue at all.

@Kuhndog-11 Thank you for the trimming pics. Do you have any issues regarding your upper control arms? How are the ball joint angles after the 2.5 inches? Do you think they might pop out?

Also, a general question, has anyone did a similar lift/level and completely left out the lower bumper supports?

Everything looks good man. I have zero concerns about ball joints and everything moves without binding. Ride is real close to stock. Very smooth still.

What leveling kit did you use? Use and aftermarket UCA's? What offset on the rims?

Mine doesn't have any bump stops I get about 10 inches of travel with it. I am running 35's on it.
