Lifts W/out rubbing

What lift can you put on a 2002 Libby without a rubbing? I’ve read several posts and most of them seem to have some rubbing or don’t mention anything about it. I don’t want to cut or ruin in any way the facial, fenders, ect… I’m looking to get a 2.5” Daystar or the Rusty lift. Any suggestions would help.

No lift is gonna cause rubbing on the bumper. However if you try and fit too large of a tire you wil get the rubbing. What a lift can cause is upper ball joint contact with the spring. This causes the upper ball joint to rip. I haven't heard of many people with these problems with the daystar lift, so u should be ok.

You should stay away from Rusty's spacer lift. It's the same as the Rocky's dreaded OTT lift. Daystar is a much better spacer lift.

Check out this page:

It'll tell you what does and doesn't fit without trimming.

If you keep the tire around 29.7" and less than 10" wide with the longer rear shocks you'll be good.

Otherwise, they will rub, nomatter what lift. :lol:
