Finally got my Gen3 - Added Innov8’s & 37’s!

Makes sense regarding the rubbing now that I see the specs on those tires.

I know Expedition Off-Road were able to make a set of Gladitor X-Comp AT 37x13.5r17 work on a 17x8.5 +6 wheel with zero rubbing (on a 35 truck) during their Cabo run.

The X-Comp ATs are .34" shorter than the trail grappers despite being slightly wider.

Beautiful truck. Definitely has me considering pulling off the 37 package graphics.

Oh wow that makes sense then! Yes I saw that setup from EXO guys and I thought I was in the clear. Looks like I need to put some miles on these and I’ll be fine! Lol. I’m going to try and bend this little metal tab back where the lowest fender bolt screws into, on the front side of the rear fender. I think that’ll do it! You got a 37”, congrats! I haven’t seen it yet. I’ll try and find, I’m still figuring out how everything works on here! In this pics you see I switched out the factory bolts and put in a domed Allen head and a lower profile washer. That helped the majority. And I dremeled off the big plastic tab that used to be in the lower corner.

are there already aftermarket spring options available for the Gen3?

No, I don't think so.

Ok fixed the rear rub, an old plastic handled axe and some leverage!

What airbag setup did you find for the Gen 3? I’d check that out… I ordered the 3/4” spacer from Foutz Motorsports, going to get that put on soon. Should help the stance to be even with the 2.25” RPG up front.

Re: the wheels, I think it’s a 28 mm difference with that offset, so it’s just under 1.25” each side with the offset, so about 2.5” overall. And the tires are much wider, I think the spec says they’re actually 13.5” wide from the website. They don’t really stick out from the fenders though, maybe 3/4” -1” at most at the roundest part of the tire. And they tuck under full squat.

Boss and Firestone with daystar cradles is what I’m finding for Gen 3 but not one picture of proof yet. I’m still researching. It was a lot easier to find for my Power Wagon, but they have been using springs for a long time. My buddy has a different brand I will measure next weekend if I remember.
