Djm 3/5 drop kit. What size tires still fit?

[Papapark]

I am considering the djm drop kit on my 09 4x4 crew. Will my 305/55r20 still fit? The rim is a 9" with a 0 offset. I ran them on my 06 that was a bit higher than stock and had to trim corners.

Also with the super steer/cognito tie rods work with the kit?

Should work fine, 0 is flush with the fender.

Will I need to cut the cab corners again?

Subscribed! Interested in the exact same thing and question except I'm only running 305/50-20s... Same wheel specs!

55s will rub....50s are better:thumb:

305 55 20 is close to 33". Don't think you will like them.

285/50/20 work the best

X2^^^ I run a 285/50r20 with no issues or trimming.

Subd thinking about some 305-50-20's.

How about the tie rods? Will they be compatible?

 

[hondarider552]

I wouldn't buy cognitos. Djm uses drop control arm not spindle drop.

 

[Papapark]

Why? Where is the conflict?

I had the tie rods on the old truck and they worked great.

 

[THEREDDEVIL]

I think he's saying cognitos r junk. And I agree.

 

[hondarider552]

My inner ball joints on my LBZ lasted 25k miles and had quite a bit of play in them. Bought another set of them, drove for 15k before I sold the truck they they started to show wear.

 

[Papapark]

Ok, I respect the opinions, but if I were to do them again, there should be no reason the wouldn't work, correct?

 

[Devon]

For tierods I would do rare parts. I had both cognito and fabtech and they oth suck!

I have had good luck with my PPE tie rod sleeves, no compliants!

Hard to wear out an aluminum piece with no moving parts :rofl: :angel:

If I keep my front end stock height, and just drop the back end to level it, will my tires and wheels fit? Will I still need to trim a bit?

I have 305/55/20s and they rub with the bars cranked. I think you will have issues. 285/55 or 305/50s might be a better option
