I have a 02 chevy tracker.It has a 3" BL.I am running 33" tires right now.They do rub some till I can get my aftermarket wheels and spacers on and 3" coil spacer lift done.I cut all I could out front and rear and used the hammer method to top it off.Mine doesnt have to be pretty because it is used offroad only. :P

I like yours better but then again It is to nice for what I do with mine.
I bought mine from a lady that had a tornado go through and some tree limbs fell on it.I had to jack the roof up about 6" in some spots just to get a new windshield in it. :laugh:Its my toy I like it.
