few questions as ive been led in 1000 different directions...Call Mike at Dobisons. The lift is about 2 inches and the tires are 35x12.50x20 with no spacers. I do get a little rub on the upper control arm when turning at full wheel lock. Normal turning and driving no rub at all. The ride is great and handlea well on and off road. This isn't a Rock Crawler, just my tow rig. View attachment 2124055
I added the bumper because I like ARB products and the look. Not too many like it out there so it makes it unique. I am updating the tires again to a 315x60x20 which is 35.1 tall verses the 35x12.50.20 which is 34.9. I hope they will clear the control arms like the 35's, but if not than I will upgrade the wheels to a different offst/backspacing to help the rubbing issue. Really dont want to run spacers if I can help it.few questions as ive been led in 1000 different directions...
1. 35x12.50 will mount to the OEM 8in platinum wheel. you did stick with the 12.50's? youre the first person ive seen try it and not size down to 11.8 or 12.0.
2. in your first pic you have the stock bumper, second pic an after market bumper. did you have to swap bumpers or was this your decision for aesthetics?
3. If you know, would a 2in level kit (strut spacer) from Fat Bobs Garage achieve the same amount of lift as your 1.75 from the dobison kit? assuming it does would you think the 35x12.50 on the OEM 20 platinum wheel have similar characteristics with little rubbing at full lock? without 1in wheel spacers... or would this need to be considered.
side note: i know strut spacers are the cheap way of lifting however this is a 2wd pavement queen that will see zero off roading. this is for looks only. i want the wifes rig to look cooler...she does too so shes a keeper, lol
Thanks in advance and i hope this helps some other 2nd gen seqouia owner n the future.
