Re: Might be the owner of crew cab

I don't really think that it will need bigger brakes since it has 4 wheel disc

Yes my tires would hit the frame when trying to turn them full left or right. That truck was a 10pt turn unit some times. If you use DRW hubs and a DRW rear axle, you might gain some clearance up front.
