Will my Digger 1.5" spacer lift let me run 30's?
« on: July 03, 2006, 05:39:17 PM »
I have finally given in and want to install the 1.5" Digger spacer lift on the Tracker 4-door so I don't have to drive it bone-stock at the Melt.

However...

If it won't lift the truck enough to run the 30" BFG A/Ts, I won't do it...  I was going to do the mod at the campground and if it won't work, I might as well leave the tires at home (Kansas City).  It'll look "festive" on stock tires, but I'll at least get some body damage protection from the lift...

So, can I run my 30's after this lift? ???

Leaving in 35 hours...

i'd say yes.  at least with my recent 1.5" spacer lift on my two door i'm positive i can put 30's under there now.  i'm going to post some pics here shortly.

i'llsay yes .. i've got them in my four door,, should get two or two an a halfs for the back. just to give it that little bit of rake.. mine's a little nose high with just the 1.5's on all corners.. you might want to do them bofor you go though. cuz you'll need a wheel alignment  quite badly.. camber bolts and reset the tow...

they 'should' fit ok, they will likely rub the frame when turning but not bad with AT grips.  i have the same setup on my 2003 2dr with no problems at all.

235/75R15's fit stock so 30x9.5R15's will fit stock as well.  They'll rub the frame a teensy bit more but with that lift that would still be the only "rubbage."

Excellent!

I'll be running them on the Bronco Wagonwheels off my Samurai.

At least I'll be able to run the dunes and the mild trails...

Thanks!

A friend of mine has 30x9.5's on his stock sidekick, using stock rims, minimal rub.
I have 1.75" of lift using spacers, I have 30x9.5's on mine using 15x7" wheels, mine rubbed on the pinch weld a little bit, and the inner, lower corner of the fender, but I fixed that with an angle grinder and a hammer.
