Rims on 4x4 SWB?
 

Anyone out there leave a 4x4 sitting stock on bigger than 20" rims? can you lower them? wanna see a 4 eye like that.

I am not sure why you would even want to do this...

Agreed, so you could cruise during a blizzard?

Yes, I live in alaska. I dont want a truck i have to put away for summer. My long bed is lifted and what not but i wanna go a little differnt direction with the shortbed.

Well, never seen a lowered 4wd shortbed but would be an interesting project!

I wasnt thinking about scraping the bumper, but maybe an inch or two. Id like to see one sitting stock on bigger rims. anyone out there?

This is my truck that i just set a rim on to see how it looked, I like the look at stock height. Is the oil pan the only thing in the way of an inch or two drop? out of curiosity

You are limited up front by the axle under the engine. I would leave it be, at least the frame-down (has a certain value), and build off of an IFS truck frame. You want more like an X3 type of 4wd. I've seen some pretty hot 4wd Tahoes huggin' the road.
