Help with Lift, Spacers and BFG's

[ToxicBanana]

This is with a 2004 Explorer

Looking at getting 2.5" Spring Lift, 3" Body Lift, 2" Wheel Spacers and 265/75/16 BFG's
or would 2.5" Spring Lift, 3" Body Lift and 285/75/16 BFG's be better?

Can you recommend the brands and where to buy this? (links would be awesome)

Thanks for the help (I used the search option)

Well, you've got a couple of options...
For lift springs, www.coilsprings.com
Or I could sell you a set of Lift Spacers http://www.explorerforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=220063
For body lift, check out my sticky'd thread http://www.explorerforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=219234

And with 3" spacers, and body lift, you'd have no problem with the 285's.

Hope that helps

Definitely get 285's if you get all that lift, it would be ashame to have all that room but not big tires

Actually, do you know the cost of the lift springs?

Lift springs are about 500 plus shipping.
My spacers are 225 painted whichever color you'd like, plus shipping.

my front springs were 240.
If I were you I would get roadbully's spacers

I agree with this statement. They are a cheaper option and you are getting the advertised lift... so plenty of room to clear big tires.

You looking at getting the BFG MT's or the AT's?

I have the MT's and absolutely love them.

Do you mean roadbully spacers or wheel spacers? I havent ordered the spacers from RB yet, but I have a thread on my wheel spacers
