Fitment Question?

[mattmal9]

I have a 2011 350. If put a 3" level kit on the front would i be able to clear 20x12 with -44 offset running a 33" tire? I love the stance that creates but i also don't want to deal with the rubbing issue. Ive heard yes it will fit an Ive also heard no, just looking for some clarification.

Also out of curiosity, if i level the front 3", what do you guys recommend for lifting the rear? I'm not one for the "Cali" stance, but would like the truck to almost have the factory slope or sit level.

Thanks in Advance!

Running a 33 I'm sure you can make it work but flexing and turning might be rough. I'm sure you can round off some stuff. It will look a little small with 33's in my opinion.

Going to rub pretty bad. I could be fixed with removing the bumper brace and cutting the inner fender, still going to be close and still rub under flex.

-44 is a really big offset, they are going to stick way out. Better to look for something with around -10 offset. Even that will stick out some.

-10 is a huge difference. that's going from a 12" wheel to a 9". I think you could clear it with some trimming. IMO the 33s are gonna look small though. I would just do a 4.5 and throw 35s on those 12" wheels and call it a day . but you could def step down to a 20x10 -24mm and clear up to a 35" at stock height with just trimming of the fender lining

as far as the rear, a 5" block should have you sitting dead level unloaded.

Is there a big difference in the body or suspension for the 05-07 model truck to the 11-13? Only reason Im asking is because i found this on a offset website and and he's running that setup with no problems, he says. Not trying to argue with any of yous guys at all! Just want to be clear before i invest in a set of wheels and tires.

the fenders/bumpers is what gets you. they sit differently on 05-07 than 08-10, and same 11-13. I'm clearing a 35/12.50/20 on 20x12s now with only 2.5" with an 09 now. I had to trim fender lining and the pinch welds. but it clears flexed offroad. but that requires way more trimming a 05-07..I don't know of anyone running the setup you have, but I'm 99% sure with some trimming it'll work

[WHY NOT]

I would guess with a little trimming and a 3" kit up front you should be able to clear a 33" tire on 12 wides. To be level with a 3" kit a 5" block should get you pretty much perfect, maybe a 1/2" higher in the rear

FWIW, I'm running a 2" level up front clearing 22x12 with 325/50/22. GRANTED the fog light bracket and bumper had to be trimmed, as well as just a little bit out of the fender and pinch weld. At just a glance nobody would ever notice..

I just cant understand for some reason (not trying to be smart at all) but if i level the front 3", won't lifting the rear 5" give the truck a rake? Like a nose down position/look?

 

[WHY NOT]

Your not lifting the rear 5". Factory rear f350 blocks are 3.5ish inches tall. You replace those with 5" blocks gaining 1.5" of lift in the rear and 3" up front to level the truck.

Any pictures? Whats your offset?

Completely didn't think about removing the factory block... Makes way more sense now.

Appreciate the help!
