Wonder how much I can stuff in the old EB. I've seen rubicrawler's on 39.5 Iroks and he cut the inner fender well out. He had the same lift I do. I've got the WH 5.5 with 2" body. I want 39.5 Iroks too, but am hoping to not cut things up. I may lift the front end another 1-2 inches at the bottom of the coil cups using a spacer, but I'm not sure that will avoid the surgery. So...pics would be nice. Might help me decide on tires etc. Thanks

i put 1 in spacers under my coils and it works just fine. i dont have 39s but have 36s with 1.5 body and 2.5 coils. i know its not what your looking for but i thought i would just tell you that the spacers work fine. I just used 1 in steel plate.

38x12.50x15 TSL's

sagged 3-1/2" coils
Stock rear leafs
2" body lift

My plan is to lower the front an inch, and raise the back 2-1/2". That will net me a 2-1/2" suspension lift, and 2" body lift. I'm using 4-1/2" coils and leafs, and moving the coil buckets and leaf hangers up 2" for clearance, and the extra stretch that longer springs will afford me. I'll be stretching the wheelbase ~8" at the same time.
