Body lift question

[Saltbreak]

New to the forum and have been spending hours combing through old posts and pictures. I Have 2012 outdoorsman and I am looking to get bilsteins 5100 in the front either set at 2.1 or 2.8. I originally was goingn to do 3" pa body lift and 35x12.50 tires on 18in xd misfits with 0 offset. My question is so you think there will be too much gap in the wheel well and I should go with 1.25" body lift? Also will 0 offset cause any issues rubbing with either 3" or 1.25" body lift with bilsteins? Thanks in advance I really appreciate it.

This was my old outdoorsman..2.5" level and 315/70/17..you'd have no issues clearing the setup your wanting to run!

I debated 1.5" and 3" body lifts along with a 2" level. I ended up going with 3" and am so happy I did! I've seen the 1.5 on a few trucks since and prefer mine. Different strokes for different folks though right? The install cost is the same, just a bit more for parts.

I've attached a pic of the front gap on mine. For a 1.5" just cut that in half. there is no rear gap, just front. You can buy gap guards though to cover it up! I don't think you'd need it with 1.5's. I d attached a pic of my gap guards too

Thanks that helps a lot. More than likely going to go with 3" what suze tire and wheels you running? Also what's your offset and do the tires stick out.

I have 325/60/20 Goodyear Duratracs. They're stock wheels so I think -20 offset. I put 1.5" BORA adaptors on which I believe makes a -12 offset. I'll get a pic of how much they stick out in a bit. It's a mean stance, if I could do it over though I'd do 1.75" adaptors purely for looks.

Thanks I really appreciate it. I like your truck a lot that's what I'm looking for. I want to try to only a max maybe 1" of tire sticking out.
