I know new guy no posts really shouldn't be asking for help. But. I needs the helps.

I have a 2003 2wd QC on 20in rock stars. Not entirely sure what's done to it but pics posted for reference. Really hoping to put the 3in rough country and 35in federal couragias but I can't seem to find and pictures of this body with a 3in and 35s. So

Anyone have any pics?
Is the rough country 3in missing anything extra?

Before anyone laughs. Yes. That is a ridiculous sized exhaust pipe. It's been on there since before I bought it.

I'm running a 7" maxtrac spindle lift on my 07 2wd. 35" general grabbers on 17x10 wheels and 2" spacers. I don't think you'll clear 35s on just a 3" on a 2wd without rubbing horribly.

Also, is that a 5" tip? Does it sound any different with it on?

There's tons of people saying with only a leveling kit they clear 35s and my current is equivilent of 33s with I'm pretty sure no lift. Below is the look I am really looking to achieve. Also with the tip I'm sure it doesn't make much difference seeing as the idiot ran straight 2.5in exhaust all the way back. With no mufflers or cat.

4wd trucks will clear 35s with just a leveling kit, 2wd will not. Yes you will be able to put the tires on, but you are going to have to drive in a straight line all the time. Lol

Interesting, they come in a 3" pipe stock. I have a 5" mbrp tip I'm going to put on mine for the hell of it. Lol

Gotta start the cummins swap somewhere.

Op: as Derek said, 4wds clear 35s on a level, but 2wds won't. You could get a maxtrac 4" kit and you ought to clear then, maybe a little trimming required.

Problem is with the Rough Country 3in im already nearing my budget. Any idea cost on the maxtrac? Or if a 1-2in boddy lift plus the rough country 3 might be a better bet?

I'm sure others will say the same, as I've seen it time and time again, you'd be better off saving until you can afford what you really want instead of buying what you can now.
