I'm running -28 on mine, but that is on 33s. Fatz is right, if you want to run 31s just chuck in a just_cruzin body lift kit and your away. |

Dude not meaning to knock you but seriously with questions like that how much research have you put into this venture? What are you trying to achieve? Just height or practicality? It is a know fact that yanks what there vehicles closest to the ionosphere as possible! Putting 31's on a sierra is one of the most common mods around. Just a 2inch bodylift and some extended bumps will allow you to clear 31's. What kit did you get and also how does it address the steering issues from SPOA? |

Did you do any research on SPOA at all? Or did you just read that it gives you lift then buy a kit? SPOA is usually run by those wanting 33-35" tyres. But there are heaps of other mods that need to be done to make this a reliable setup. Such as chromo CV's and axles at the very least. Hilux diffs are a common upgrade for SPOA rigs also. As for the offset question...... You will get a minimum of 4" lift from the SPOA. I would want to be going ATLEAST 4"-6" wider to help offset the extra height. |

packaging qould be hard on the front. But if you flip it upside down and run it as a bottom link it will work. |

with the 50 motor being so small and no sump, there shouldnt be any issues with space to run it normally

No BL required for 31's with big enough bump stops and abit of hammering...

what springs are you planning on using for your SPOA? |

| Post subject: | Re: sierra offset for SPOA ?? |
As with all mods there are different ways to go about it. You can fit 33's with no lift if you are happy to do some panel work. |

OME 1.5 with a leaf removed from all 4 springs or standard OME springs, I wanted it to be 3 or 4" of lift, yous might not like it but i do, so i dont need lifted springs now with the SPOA, its all ready high enough Now is that a good idea or bad idea ????????? |

you dont want to use anything other than flat, non lifted springs for spoa. the lower you can keep your car then less likly you will flip it. believe me, you think your car will look cheep with chopped guards. imagine how cheep it will look with a dented bonnet and the roof all stoved in. |
