For all of you that have done the SOA, on a stock scout, will 33's hit? Or 35's? Thanks, Chad..

1972 Scout II:D

My 33 TSL's rubbed a little in the front on the inners until I cut em out. Need a little trimming for 35's if you are planning on it flexing at all.

wow only 33's huh.. Oh well, Im actually doing this to make selling the scout a little easier, hopefully...Any pics available of a scout with a stock soa would b great, thanks..

I wasn't very clear, 33's don't rub at all until the front is at full flex, then they caught the inners,

35's would fit without trimming as long as you always drove on flat ground.

Thanks Hayraker... Im not going to wheel this scout, other than on the way to the river, going steehead fishing :D

Chad ya keepen the old Scout? looks like ya are

No Im going to sell it, but I want to do this first..

Stock Scout SOA? What is that?

I only have stock springs on my SOA, but I have a 2 inch body lift, so that probably does not help. I don't rub with my 33's, not even close. (except on springs, had to back out the stops a little) But, I had previously clearanced the rear wheel well a little, and my front wheel wells as well, but even without those, I don't think my 33's would have rubbed.....

What I mean by stock soa is using stock springs, thats all

Define stock Scout II springs :D :D :D

There seem to have been a couple *stock* varieties.

However, all that aside, SOA with *stock* springs, which by now should be pretty flat, should fit 33's without rubbing. There are always exceptions, but I think in *Most* cases it won't be a problem. If anything, 33's look kind of small in SOA wheel wells.

Wish I had a pic without the body lift for you, but here is one with

thanks Hooper:D

Hmm.. my 31s don't quite rub with stock springs, SOA.

I didn't move the rear axle fore or aft with the SOA.

Of course, up front there's a lot of clearance, but since the front clip is installed a few inches forward (and now it's a fore more inches forward after a sudden-stop..) the tires do rub on the rear of the cut front fenders.

I need to re-radius 'em.

35s fit if I don't articulate at all. Work pretty well in the drags.
