So im lifting my 2001 4x4 2dr gmc jimmy for my christmas present. this is what i plan on getting so how do you guys think this would look?
truck: 2001 GMC Jimmy 4x4 2dr
wheels: 5 Black Pro Comp rock crawler series 97 15"x7" on 4.5 backspacing
Tires: 5 31"x10.50" BFG Mud Terrains
Lift: 2" Tbar crank daystar 1.5" rear Shackles and a fabtech long add a leaf (for towing my trailer) and a 2" body lift (with the gap guards from synergy offroad)
do you guys think i could make this work with minor trimming of the fenders and such? and do you think it would sit level or close to it with a 2" tbar crank in the front and the 1.5" shackles and add a leaf inthe rear? i priced it up and its either spend $290 more for 31" tires or dont get the body lift and gap guards and just get 30" tires.
oh and im getting 5 wheels and tires because i plan to build an offroad roof rack with a spare tire mount on the back. so how do you guys think this would look? would i rub a bunch with 31's even if i trimmed the fenders and such? i also plan on building some rock sliders and some kind of front bumper or nerf bar for lights and maybe even a rear bumper. im trying to make this a mix of a baja truck/muddin truck. i want to put like 5 big lights on the roof rack with 2 reverse lights on the back and i already have 2 lights in my grill and i plan to add 2 more to the bumper or nerf bar i build. my dad welds for a living so he can weld pretty much anything from aluminum to stainless to titanium (if he has the right machine and other tools)
do you guys think a 2" body lift is a must to clear 31's with no major rubbing? think i could clear them with just the tbar crank, shackles and add a leaf?
so let me know what you think about the lift and everything. thanks guys!
