My tire size is 32x11.5x15. It looks like it may have 2-2.5" lift. What do y'all think?

No!!!
 
No, you have no lift. Go 4" and don't look back unless you are going to run 32's forever.

Later,
 
Rear has been cut.
 
Another vote for No. Looks like stock height shackles too. Looks like you will get some rubbing if you flex it out.
 
nope no lift, are your rear fenders trimmed?, it may just be the pic but they look trimmed,thats what is making it look taller

sweet cruiser by the way
 
Poor man's lift.


So, you gonna reverse the shackles?

I don't think I am going to use a shackle reversal. I have done a lot of searching on this and really can't find any positives. I find that 99% of people say that they re not worth it. Now when I talked with MAF they have nothing but praise about SR. I don't know.
 
Two things, No lift and No SR ..



Just my .02 .... :beer:
 
no lift, i run the same size tire and mine sits exactly the same
 
And who were you looking to purchase the SR kit from?;)
I thought about that too but when I called CCOT to talk to them about their HFS suspension even they recommended SR to me though they don't sell them.

There are few things I would take CCOT's advice on whether they sell the parts or not. I will take Jim Chenoweth's advice on everything having to do with Cruisers, and not just carbs, so check out what Jim C has to say about a SR. I think there's a link on the Tech Links
 
Where does JimC work again?

X2. Check out his writeup in the Tech Links.

Poser is another person who's advice I will always follow.

Agreed. There are lots of very knowledgable folks here on MUD and in the cruiser community (going back to the mid-1990's on the Land Cruiser Mailing List (LCML)); the three who speak what I consider to be Land Cruiser gospel are Jim C., Poser, and Mark W. (of Sarah Palin's home town). There are probably a couple others that don't come to mind right now.

I might suggest adding Mark A. of Mark's Offroad to your short list.

Yes....I forgot Pinhead too. and of course CDAN for 80 series.

I think if one of them told me taking a sh*t in my gas tank would make my cruiser run better I would try it. :hillbilly:
