6 inch lift.. will 37's fit?
« on: July 18, 2009, 03:37:12 PM »
Do you guys think a set of 37" TSLs will fit under my burb after a 6 inch lift without rubbing the fenders?  Or do i need a body lift?  I love the suburban forum by the way!!  I will post some pics of my war pig after i get the body line x on and lift installed.  Oh and i need to learn to post pics as well

You won't need a body lift if you're not afraid to trim the fenders. i would avoid a body lift on a 'Burb, too much mass to be raised up on 3" pucks.

If you dont want to trim teh fenders, then get a 8" lift and you'll be fine.

Trim the fenders, get a set of cut out flares if you really want it pretty. I plan on doing up to 41's with a 6" lift and trimming.

its probably a little more but my fenders are trimmed and rolled looks almost stock well the lip anyway.

I hope your rear ratio is like 4.56 or higher number if you wanna put 37's on it.  Those bigger tires KILLS your mpg, as if a sub wasn't bad enough as it is. You'd always have to have the gas pedal mashed to go anywhere--even on the interstate whith those big tires. 

I've got 33's on my 3.73 rear 4x4 sub and I am going down to 265's next time i change tires/wheels.

My truck had 5.13's to spin the 44" swampers.
