I need clearance on my 1997 XLT.

[Jaws90]

Well i live in an area that gets substantial amount of adverse weather and am wanting to find the cheapest way to get clearance from the ground. Also, i am looking to find a decent price on some 31" tires. any help?

i did a tortion twist and air shocks in the back, but shackles are probably cheaper than the air shocks

Sounds great, looking into getting the shackles as soon as possible.

what kind of, if any, rubbing would be expected when putting a set of 31" tires on a 97?

Welcome to this forum! I've moved your thread into the shocks, suspensions, and lift kits section.

I put 31s on my 92 X with no rubbing stock. I also have 31s on my 98 Ranger with no rubbing stock. I think you will be okay
