They've got shiny shocks this time. Hopefully their better than the crappy ones they give out with the 00-04 3" lifts.

I think it is bad news what Ponyboy posted on what Calmini stated in his post on the "3 in lift?" thread.

"This is quoted from Calmini:
"The suspension system is a full 5" spindle/drop crossmember lift. The tire on the X is a Toyo Open Country AT measuring 285/70/R17 (32.76 x 11.5). The rear fender well is the limiting factor as far as fitting a larger tire is concerned.""

Looking at the picture I can see what Calmini is saying. The rear portion of the front wheel well will hit with any tire size larger than 32" unless you resort to cutting or replacing body panels.

If they offered some sort of different spring pack that would just move the axle back an inch or two and then offer some different plastic, that is if you don't like cutting the stock stuff, then 35's probably wouldn't be a problem at all.

Does anyone on here actually have the kit yet, or does anyone know the price of the kit?
