Some companies that offer lift kits require the diff mounts to be cut among other things. There is much to a lift if you are doing it right. If you supercharge like me and using larger tires, re-gearing is a must to stay in your powerband. The specs on tomps' is right on too. you can keep 15.5 covered with the flair kits out there if your offset is right. Wish you all the luck in your decision.

Looks good! What brand of lift is that you have? You have a 5 inch backspace, what width and diameter are the rims? What tire size is that (width, height)? Thanks for your help!

Lift kit "BulletProof" www.bulletproof.net
Tires are 38/15.5/18
wheels are 18x10

The bullet proof lift also uses stock spindles which keeps the track width stock except for changing rims. but this is the only 6" to be able to keep stock rims.. As a general note with all the research I have done the Rancho is actually a 6" lift even though they advertise 4" Fabtech is actually a 6" even though its advertised as a 6 1/2" and Bullet proof is actually a 7" even though its advertised as a 6".
Ohh, and I wanted to say thank you to H2R I went with the Bullet Proof because of your advice. I leased an 08 and I am now an installer and supplier of Bullet Proof suspension here in Florida. I did alot of reading and not much talking but the ride is very sweet. I do like the Fabtec but the diff cut is not reversable. I had an 03 I just sold where the Fabtec was on since it was new.

Thanks,

I would like to see a pic of your rig... What shock set up did you go with?

Thanks so much, this is good stuff. Though that link took me to a web hosting website. I googled bullet proof and found them: http://www.bulletproofsuspensions.net/6_hummer_h2.php

So about how far do your tires stick out? It's hard to tell in the photos. I'm wondering if simply using a bit narrower tire would keep them under the stock fenders.

Thanks again!

without flairs

If you used the stock rims and stock width tires the tires woud still be under the flares. Its when going to the offset rims that make them stick out of the fenders. the stock tires are 13" wide. A 325/70r17 would be fine. but are only 35" tall. a 37x13.50x17 should work perfect as only being 1/2" wider

I used skyjacker for my shock setup . nothing special, I did not really want to go with the upper control arm dual hoop shocks. More things to put back to stock. I posted a pic under http://www.elcovaforums.com/forums/s...ad.php?t=32939
