I think you could definitely do that and it would probably look good too. Tons of work for a little garnishment like that though. I would like that more for the smooth edge that wont cut me, my tires or anything else rather than for the appearance. I think the main challenge you would have is...

http://youtu.be/70r2Q4H0OdY Heres the vid I was talking about. Id say the truck is pretty competent off road with only a minor trim job.

I dont want to contradict patracy but.... I have 37s on my 1031 and only had to trim the lower corners a "little". Mainly I had to cut the part of the fender that curls under where I would call it the "rocker panel". I have no clearance issues at all with normal driving a light 4x4. I am in the...

:funny:

Right but I think that the further out the wheel goes the more likely it is to rub as the wheel comes back from center. Maybe the 1/2" wouldnt make any difference. I think most people are using 2" spacers but many of the posts about it are older and so more experience may have changed their...

So any straight answers on this? 2.0" or 2.5" Which work better?

Thats what she said.

Is there any benefit to the 2" vs 2.5" spacers?

I concur Cucvnut, Im just not clear if thats what was being said in the post or not.

By "wheels" do you mean tires? Looks like stock wheels and HMMWV tires. Not trying to be OCD just trying to understand. Thanks for posting pics!

On the other hand, unsprung weight is beneficial to traction in non Alabama clay conditions. lol

So I was looking at the various suppliers noted on SS and it looks like EZ Accessory has the best price and by the looks of the photos their spacers have the most material on them which should ease my mind on the strength issue. - I also noted that "MOHAK DAVE" uses the spacers and he is a 4x4...

I think a lot of guys have gotten them off there and I did go and look. There are several varieties to choose from. I like the billet ones but they specifically note that they are not "hub-centric". Maybe this doesnt matter so much but I would think that having a machined part that fits snugly...

:funny: Running long mud flaps also helps disguise your travel but I have not had any offers from the military for my mud flap extenders. lol

Awesome! Do you have further info on the spacers you bought presuming you like them? Did you install the steering box reinforcement to deal with the added weight/friction of the larger tires?

Isnt the way the passenger side is the "right" way to have them all the way around?

I like it! It looks like the drivers fender is bent in slightly from a hard rub at some point? If this is the case, do you think the zero rates and sliding the axle forward that available inch would eliminate that? Do you or anyone else know how the wheel spacers impact payload capacity? Do the...

Im after the cheap RPM reduction as well. I do get off road pretty frequently in the summer but it is almost always logging or forest service roads that are at least somewhat maintained. I am likely going to do the gear vendor as well. Also, from a BOV angle, the split rims are very attractive...

Hey Matt65. I currently have an M1031 but it will be getting reassigned to 1028 status and the contact box will be becoming a trailer. Thanks for the follow up on the lift. Im not opposed to lifting I just dont have any reason to do it other than adding the tires which is mainly for the highway...

Whats the bare minimum lift you absolutely would have to do to run the 12b H1 rims and take-off radials?
