Am i understanding this correctly?

After reading all the info on this site, if im understanding everything correctly, I can run a 245/75/17 Duratrac on my stock wheels and NOT have to run spacers to clear the bolt providing i have 2"+ lift. However if i do any offroading, i will need to do do the pinch weld mod.

Not trying to be a noob, but wanted to double check before i actually start pricing/ordering everything....

If it helps any, im looking at the RC lift. Mainly because i work at a shop that is a RC dealer and will hopefully get a discount. :D

Yup that's about right! I recommend the pinch weld mod regardless it's free so just do it and be safe :)

There is a member on the forum selling a brand new RC lift and wheel spacers for a great price.

Cool! Give your bolts and stuff some lubricant now to help getting it apart.
