Need to see if anyone has installed the 2 inch leveling kit with the 3 inch body lift and then used 36 inch tires. I lifted my 04 supercrew the same way and fit 35's no problem. Now im lifting my 08 supercrew Limited and bought 36" tires to go on the stock 22" rims. Installing all this week and just thought I'd get some advice. Any info would be helpful. Also has anyone ever used a 1/4 inch wheel spacer?

I REALLY hope you are not talking the '08 Limited Edition, even though I'm certain you are. If ask me, putting huge tires on that truck is an ultimate sin! That is not an off-road truck, nor will it ever look like one! You're taking a beautifully crafted show-worthy truck and screwing it up by adding lift kits and bigger tires. Whatever limited edition value it had will now be gone, there were only 5,000 of these manufactured, that is a rare tresure that should be taken care of, not abused! I'm not the only one on here that would say this but you're a dumb-azz! Keep it classy man! Go buy you're old '04 back and modify it!

Your exactly right! It is absolutely a show truck. And the best part is :cheer: IT'S MY SHOW TRUCK :cheer: ! My intention is to have the only Lifted LIMITED! Ultimately six more inches of lift! Truely sorry if you don't like what i'm doing, but IT'S MY TRUCK, MY MONEY, AND MY LIFE! So i appreciate your concern. Now in all seriousness...

Has anyone used a 36" tire with a 3" body lift and the 2" leveling kit!

I rest my case.... I agree though that it will fit pretty easily.

Thanks for the input. My plan is to try and keep the classyness of the truck, just in a lifted form. I'll post some pics when it's done and you can be the judge.

Yes please! I am curious to see how it looks with a lift on it. Should look pretty sweet!

I have posted some pics on the photo gallery. The 2" leveling Kit (1 hour install). 3" Body Lift (15 hour install). Tires installed by local shop and did require 1/4" wheel spacer on front wheels and I did have to trim the front bumper skirt.
