I recently got 305's put on my truck and of course the rub, i was wondering whats the easiest way to eliminate this. Wheel spacers or a leveling kit? also when i try to put it into first gear or reverse it grinds so i have to put it into fourth or fifth first(its a manual tranny)?

 

Welcom to the DTR. A 2" leveling kit clears 35's on mine. Sounds like the syncros are worn. Its a common prob. Fill in your sig when you get time it will help in the future.

 

What do you mean by syncros? I just put in a new track bar and now my nearly worn out 315's rub when I turn hard left. What is going on? It has never rubbed in the past.

 

welcome to TDR! I would def go with a leveling kit i have one on my truck and it looks real nice, and personally i think wheel spacers kinda look ghetto sometimes cause the tires just stick out to far ! but i am in the same predicament i have a leveling kit already and i am possibly putting on 315x75x16 which is basically a 35". read my post a few above yours 315's vs. 285's it might answer some of your questions!

 

Thanks alot guys i will definbately go with the leveling kit. IF ny of you know were to get them a little cheaper let me know

 

How hard is it to replace the syncros and how much do they usually cost? thanks

 

Any suspension manufacture(fabtech, skyjacker, rancho, tuff country, etc) probally makes a leveling kit for your truck. im not sure who makes mine do to the fact it was on the truck when i bought it! but as far as your tranny i have no clue manual trannies is not my cup of tea.
