5.5 superlift+ SOA..what next?

[91Sploder]

How much are the Perry Fenders going to cost you? Also, do they paint them for you?

 

[93liftedXLT]

You don't need spacers/shackles AND perry's fenders. You could do one or the other and fit 35's.

Well everyone says i need gears 1st, before 35's,

 

[j602]

Well we're trying to help you. If you're going to move to 35's, then yes, gears should come first. Then you can do fenders or spacers/shackles, but both are not necessary.

 

[93liftedXLT]

alright

 

[SVO]

A trail rig needs to be as low as possible. If your going to go offroad...do not get a body lift, they add NOTHING except body roll, if you want to fit a bigger tire get a sazall and cut (it can still look good if you add some flares)

Agreed!!

thats a good Height i think, nice truck,

 

[JTX]

You dont need gears that bad, Right now i have 11 inchs of lift with 35's and 3.73 gears. Im in the process of regearing. As for four wheeling i have wheeled with alot of guys on this forum and body roll hasnt really an issue. 35's and 11 inchs is the perfect tire i think. Anything bugger would rub and anything smaller looks funny.

 

[91Sploder]

Agreed!!

That Najavo is Bad ASS! Keep up the good work!

For an Explorer I wouldn't go over 6-7 inches of lift and just adapt the fenders to fit whatever tire you want. Just my personal opinion, but then again there are a few who wheel regularly with much more lift.

 

[Paul Gagnon]

This is 6" of lift with 36" tires (and they measure a true 36"). A little fender trimming is all that is needed, no F150 spacers and no expensive and fragile fibreglass fenders.

 

[JTX]

Does it rub at all when on the trail? I just worry about cutting tires up, that was my main concern.

 

[Paul Gagnon]

No rubbing if you trim the fenders properly and adequately. You will also need to trim the plastic inner fenders.

Yes, Whats the total amount for this conversion?

2-4 k?

Not sure, I would say somewhere around there. I got lucky with my second explorer, it was already done.

Here is the link to the build up of mine written by Felix who I bought it from. Mine's got coils though.
