yup thats what they give you or you can use a 2.5" perch

My concern is not the lift , but rather difference in wheel offset +1 vs +34(OEM)
That’s why I’d like to see how much space is left in the wheel well with 37” installed

Nice!

Did your rear sag issue get resolved? What’s the height now to the top of your roof? Questioning garage fitting.

I have Geiser springs, Deaver +3s, and +6 mm offset on my Fuel Trophy's with Toyo RT 37x12.5x17s.

I had to trim the inner fender well on both sides to stop the rubbing. I also painted the plastic honeycomb flat black to make it disappear. The second picture shows the first trim job and the third picture shows the final trim work. Since trimming the second time, I have not heard any rubbing under normal driving conditions for the last couple of months.

Just got on the list for the gen2 Geiser springs. Loved them in my gen1. I also want the deaver +3 too.

Perfect pictures! Thanks. Exactly what I needed to see.
I’m sure I’ll be fine with +1 37”s and a bit of trimming.

Appreciate it

I haven’t done much research on the gen2 yet. Anyone know if 0 offset methods I kept from my gen1 will fit with 37s with the same amount of trimming that @BADASSRAPTOR posted? I’ll be on Geiser springs and most likely deaver +3.

What was the size of the cube you had to cut out?
Width length and depth?

I cut the thin plastic liner from the rear of the inner fender well, so it was not a cube. The honeycomb you see in the pictures sits about a 1/2" behind the inner fender because their is a bulge in the plastic right where I cut it. The plastic I removed was a flat piece about 3 1/2" wide by 4 1/2" tall on both sides of the truck. It was easier to cut and paint with the wheels off, but you could certainly do it with them still on, if needed.

I used a small Micro Dremel tool from Home Depot with a cutting blade and it took less than 5 minutes.
