Re: 4-6" lifted trucks

for those with the 4" and 35's, is there any tire rubbing in the front, lock to lock?

Here's my 71 with a 4 inch and 35 inch tires. I've since put a 6inch Skyjacker Softride lift on. I'll post them next.

Re: 4-6" lifted trucks

You may get away with 4" lift and 35s if you run 8" wheels.

4" lift,12.50/35s,on 10" wheels:

Not sure if you're only looking for pickup truck pics but here's one of my 72 k5. Got a 4" lift with 33" procomp tires.
