So I decided to use the 12 bolt hummer wheels I picked up along with a set of 36x12.50 tires used from Birgtires in Fayetville. Man do they pull in every direction!!! I also am using 2" spacers behind these wheels b/c they definitely wouldn't fit by themselves. Im still waiting on my swaybar correction/disconect from offroad design(should be here next week). Oh yea this is a 4" Rough Country 3/4 ton lift kit...I highly recommend get extended front and rear brake lines unless you want to bend your front hardlines down(which I did
) & cutting the bracket on the rear(like I did
). Also I had to grind down the sleeves for the front shocks they included in their "universal" bushing kit.
You will definitely need a swaybar drop bracket(not the one from Rough Country) b/c theirs does not fit according to them. I ran into a littel problem in the rear as well b/c my passenger side rear shock mount on the axle has be bent some how and I had to put my shock boot side down. Not that big of a deal but would have preferred boot side up.
I can definitely get up to higher speeds but haven't had a chance to test the full potential...the tires are a little loud but they do smooth out with speed. I had a shop here locally balance them with a bag of little beads...seems to be doing the trick. I only am confused about one thing though...WHAT IS EVERYONE DOING ABOUT THE REAR EMERGENCY BRAKE LINE??? Mine is pretty tight and right next to the rear driver side spring...any advice would be great. Thanks,
