Calmini body lift - 18/11/01 02:01 AM

What do yall think of that 3-inch body from Calmini? I think somebody said it was identical to the AC lift in another thread.. What size tires would I be able to fit under the X if I put it on? 32x11.5x15?.. on the Calmini site it says something about a 33x12.5 tire but is that including the 3-inch suspension?

Also, I'd like to keep my brush guard so has anybody heard or someone welding an extension on to the bracket under the bumper where the brushguard bolts on to raise the brushguard to work w/ the body lift?

You should be able to run those 32s without any problems. You can fit 33s but you will get a lot of rubbing. It all depends on the offset of your wheels.

The lift is identical to Performance Accessories body lift, except silver. The only person I know of that has the body lift with an ARB is Sgt. Lobo. He has both lifts and had to rig a setup to get the ARB back on. I ended up selling my brushguard cause it was more trouble than it was worth to have it welded on.

So if I were to keep my Waag brushguard and side steps, I'd have to get some sort of extension for them and weld them on?

For the step rails you can just bolt them up using the top bolt. They would be mainly for looks then. Well they are for looks anyway.

The brushguard will probably have to be welded on or you could the brush guard mounts and weld them back on so they will fit.
