I have thought about running spacers too, but I am concerned that with my rear sway bar removed, the tire will no longer tuck into the wheel well and hit the fender flare. Can anyone confirm or deny this??? I am running 245-75R16 on stock rims with Daystar's 2.5" lift on my CRD.

In this picture the driver's side rear wheel is tucked nicely into the wheel well. (The pasenger front wheel is on a 20" rock wall.)

your tire seems to be canted inward just a bit at the top...is that an illusion? or is it leaning in??


Its just an illusion. With a solid axle its pretty difficult to get the camber out of alignment since its one solid axle but it does look a little, most likely not sitting on perfect level ground.

I have been running them for about a year now. They are 1.25" thick. Here is a side view. Oh, a good side benefit. It rained today and after most had dried off I went for a cup of coffee. Along the edge of the road was water and this guy came up and road on my butt. So I pulled over into the water and threw a ton of it in his face! He backed off!

I throw the Edge Module into level 3 and gun the throttle. The smoke also discourages windows down and loud music at lights. 8)

Spacers will work, I have them with 265/75/16's on stock rims and using 3" rear bumpstops.
