Fitting 35's??
« on: November 30, 2008, 21:51:43 »
Hi got a disco 5 dr and want to fit 35's to it.

What do ineed to give me the space etc, im running 2" lift springs at the moment .

Was thinking 2" body lift and 4" shocks to go with the springs, will this be enough??

cheers

I have a 3 door with a 3 inch suspension lift and a 2 inch body lift. I recently put a set of 35 inch Mastercraft Coursers on.
They still scuff the inner arch and bumper on full articulation.
The main problem you will have is trimming the arches by the rear doors.

im on 37" boggers , iv a 3 door van tho

has a 4" suspention lift and 2" body with cut arches

was running 35" pro comp with just the suspention lift and arch cuts and didnt have any rubbing

a 2" body lift is very easy , u may have to go higher on the suspention lift tho and that brings more things to think about , arms , props ect

u will have to chop the arches  , fitting the flexi arches and making a nice job of a 5 door takes a bit of time , jake from d44 did a thread on here when he cut his 5 door disco

heres mine on 37 boggers tho

Think it easier if i go for a set of 33's  :roll:

Then a body lift will mean less arch cutting too

I've got 33's on a 2" lift with cut arches and have no problems with rubbing
I did test fit some 35's but they rubbed on my nasty flexi arches  :roll:

33's are the way to go...
No major mods required, just a 2" lift and some flexi arches. I've got 33x12.5x15's on mine and they don't rub, even on full flex.
