    Howzit Tundra gang, just upgraded to 37 inch tire's on 8.5 " lift without BMC, only cut pinch weld. Would you guys recommend BMC ! I have 2" of clearance at full turn & 4 WheelParts have said that I didn't need to have body mount chop, just the pinch weld. Just want some feedback & recommendation from the forum. Mahalo & Aloha!

    If you don’t rub at full lock in reverse I don’t see the point to do the BMC. Most people doing the BMC aren’t as high up as your 8.5” lift.. maybe something to consider if you wanted to go with some 40” tires though :yes:

    Ps. Truck looks sweet!

    Uh......... what lift are you running? Because you have a shit ton of preload on those coilovers..... most companies, fox, icon, king say don't have more than around 2 inches of threads showing above the ring.... you're showing at least 4 inches or more. Stock UCAs too?

    This is closer to the recommended level of lift...for max. What your doing is limiting the amount of upward movement that your wheel can move.... guess it's OK if it's a mall crawler and you go really slow over any bumps. I'm sure someone else will chime in. Like I said earlier... looks good.... just don't want it to cost you down the road
