Looking for proper amount to raise M925A2 cargo bed when converting to 16.00 XZL tires. Would assume 2", since radius profile difference from 14.00 to 16.00 tire is 2", but looking for any known cases where a 2" raised bed still kissed a 16.00 tire in full articulation with no bed load (off-road parks, etc...). I don't want to raise bed more than necessary, so simple math says +2" so far. The factory wood isolator is dimensionally 1" thick already. I'd do this add by planning down 2 pressure treated 4x4 wood posts (dimensionally 3.5" square) down to 3" square , since the frame rail top width is 3". I could not plane the posts height, and just leave it as 3.5", but don't want to if not necessary.
Searched threads, found some info, but not specific. Would not mind a small rub, but don't want to chunk the tires. Easier to cut wood than metal. Thanks.
