How far do you want them to go in?

I would like 1" The old rims rubbed a lil,
and so do the new ones, lol. I might do
bags but gotta it's not a daily driver so
blowing $ on it won't sit well w/ Wifey.

I was going to recommend that we could mill a relief in the back mounting pad of the wheel but we could not get any where close to 1" out of it.

The only thing air ride will do is allow the wheels to camber inwards, not really going to fix the rubbing at ride height.

Hmmmmm, I guess it's custom uppers
and lowers then to get the clearance.

Will I have to change anything else?

(That seems way to simple, lol)

Of course I know not cheap

if you have a welder and a cut off wheel its free. you would have to change your tie rod ends. this is a bit tricky. you can have someone tap new threads on yours (id suggest gettin new ones) or you could thread them yourselve if you buy the die. i have actually seen people cut them and re-weld them together but thats a bit scary to me.

Thanks for the input, I won't be doing any
of the work, probably buy a custom set.

This an excellent thread. I was thinking the same thing. Anyone have some key dimensions that we need. I think I can probably get some made. I've got a couple buddies with machine shops or access to said machine shopts.
