6” RC lift with Stock Wheels

[firemedic3404]

I’ve looked everywhere, and can’t find what I’m looking for. I have my lift and tires sitting in the garage. 6” RC with lifted struts. AMP Terrain Attack A/T 305/70R18... I want to use the stock Rebel wheels. Am I going to need spacers? If so what size? Or will I be good? Need to know before I start the work so I don’t get stuck waiting on spacers if I need them. Please help!

If I remember right 4th generation can't have 6inch RC with stock wheels.

I know for a fact it can be done, I’ve seen it, but I haven’t been able to ask the owner of the truck. Well...he never responded I should say...

Hope this helps.

Limited, blacked out lots of chrome, everything except wheels, and grille ( to be done at a later date)

I don’t know the answer, but I imagine you would need a decent spacer. You would need the size difference between the stock wheel backspacing and the maximum backspacing for the lift. Probably somewhere around 1” if I took a wag. 1.25 or 1.5 spacer should do it. IIRC, the 1.5” spacer puts it about flush with the edge of the flare.

trying to remember if anyone has this setup but not coming up with anything at the moment.

Went ahead and bought 1” for the front and 1.5” for the rear. If it’s not enough I’ll just flip them to get the install done and order 2” for the rear

She’s home. Sorry for the ugly picture, just wanted to let everyone know it’s done. I’ll post more tomorrow. Just FYI... 1” spacers up front, 1.5” in the rear.

Hey I was wondering what the height of the top of the wheel well front and rear and also roof. Guessing it won’t fit in parking garages lol
