32x11.5 BFG AT KO's with homemade lift, about 4". Small body lift 1.5", widened front and rotated rear axle, no fender cutting everything fits. The Altered Ego Kit seems to be the way to go, pricy but good.

any pictures?

FYI, that is a great looking Trackick.

Thanks Andy, since that photo was taken I've replaced the clapped out Calmini springs and spacers in the front with 16" 550lb FOA coils, and FOA 150Lb. 16" in the rear. It added another 1.5 " of lift to the suspension for a total of 4+.

cool , what lift is drone637 running?


He has just started and is attempting minimum for lift, which will mean some fender trimming (about the same as mine with many modifications).  Check out his build thread http://www.zukiworld.com/forum/build-diaries-how-to-diy/project-white-rabbit/.  Should be photo's up after this next weekend.

Hey BRD HNTR If im folowing along correctly your claiming that you are trying to fit a 33" tire buy just using a suspension lift in the 2.5  range and then using the lengthening mods and thats it?  I just want to make sure i was following along. thanks again

Yes that is correct.
It will require trimming the back and front corners of front wheel wells, and we will slide the rear end back 1" (but it would work in its present position).  If you do not want to trim wheel wells, then a body lift will be required for tires above a short 32.  He is going to lower the bump stops 1" to keep from hitting the center of wheel wells.

I drive a samurai so I couldn't tell you much. But I've found a sidekick I'm interested in. Look for the thread on here on the explorer/ranger springs with spacers up front and jeep springs out back, I think he's running 31"s now. Also as far as those nexen tires go, my buddy runs em on an Xterra and they are really good tires for the price but an Xterra is like two sidekicks. As far as psi goes I run 30tonight in my tires on my samurai and it wears good, like a lot of guys have said, it doesn't really wear. But as far as lift look for that thread from what I gather he spent like 200 bucks on his lift by getting his springs from the u pull it.
