My wheels are stock backspacing what ever that is. I run tall skinny tires though so that doesn't work for everyone. 3.75" or 4" is probably what most people run.

I'm running 35's on a 4.5 inch lift, I just did a Icelander cut but instead of using their flares I used pre-97 flares instead.

It wasn't any problem at all I just floated the gap. Once you get mud on it you can't even tell and the old style flares hold up great in the woods.

Right now Im just trying to get the new half shaft and new caliber on since blowing out the wheel bearing. Only problem is no tools and no one wants to help. I can do it myself but since Im a girl none of my friends want me to do it.

i did alot of cuttin its not very driveable right now it rubs real bad at the pinch weld behind the front tires. so im going to notch it and bend it over just so i can move it around a little better. iwant to lift about 4" and get some full width axles prob a D44 and 9" in the rear. i still have to fab up some rear fender wells. there just open right now.
