As a Frontier owner and ASE certified Tech I completely agree 31-32 will fit with minor mods to the fender flares I put 31x10.5's on the stock 15's and they rubbed when turned lock to lock until I removed the front section of the fender flare as well as shaving some of the fender well. Especially for new people or those less mechanically inclined 31's-32's are as big as you should go also anylarger and you need to start recalibrating your speedo. (forgot with my old truck and paid 250 to the town of Marana. it had 33's)

I would add however with your torsion bar advice to observe the torque specs when tightening them down or you will end up stripping them out. Expensive. Although following torque specs hopefully is an understood.

I've had my 32's rub when i was only 2-2.5" of lift... So i figued if people are experienced enough with modding there rigs, they will know what they can and can not fit, but for new guys to this, its safer to give a realistic expectation that they can do a small lift and 32's with no real issues...

as for shackles.... Lots of the blame doesn't go to the shackles, but more so the weak leaf packs our trucks come with... I think more of it comes from the fact that once we lift, we also start wheeling, and start trying to flex our trucks out as often as we can.... and that in itself is more likely to be the reason they flatten out... because at that point, we are stressing the already weak leaf packs even more...... I think i hit on the AAL's are the best, but shackles create more flex thing though... which is true....

WHERE ARE MY BODY LIFT GUYS????????? Houdini, NismoGone... somebody...

anybody want to add anything, or help me out on the technical side of anything????

yep. i agree that you suggest 31-32" tires. because 33" has a big effect on the performance wise of the rig.
