IP: Logged

Message:
i have a 95 dakota 4x4 extended cab with a 318 and i installed a 2 inch performance accesories body lift on it so i figured i could easily get 31's under it so i bought some bf mud terrains and noticed it rubbed my wheel flares so i cranked the torsion bars the rest of the way ....but it still rubs when i turn and hit a bump or somethin so my question is ....does this mean my torsion bars are weak and if they are what can i do....just buy new ones?

unless bf mud terrains are bigger than other 31's, then it prolly is your bars. i have a '94 4x4 ex. cab 318 with 31" a/t's on it, and they don't rub, and i don't even have a body lift on it. does it sit noticeably lower in the front? if it looks pretty close to level, then i don't know what to tell you.

What do you have for rims? Rim width and offset play a major role in this equation.
