40'' STT, AEV Borah, 3" lift combo?

[ArmyMP]

Anyone running this combo?

Pics?
Issues?

I'm a JTRD and poof emergency expense on tires time. Came across a good deal on 40" cooper STT and trying to figure out if I can make it work.

I don't quite meet your spec but I'm running:

- 3" rockkrawler long arm/triangulated rear
- Borah beadlocks
- 38 Falken RT01

To clear the front control arms with a 38x13.5 I need a 4.5 back spacing. Obviously, the Borah runs 5.72" BS so I added a 1.5" spacer to accommodate for now. I've also gutted my inner fenders, but still run a full fender. I think you will have issues with backspacing, rubbing control arms, and rubbing fenders with that much tire.

Red flag to your “trying to figure out how to make it work”. You’re asking for a mess. Don't make 40s work. Respectfully

Definitely rub the control arm. I have 1.5 spacers on the way. But I didn't make any contact with the fenders at all.

I wouldn't expect fender rub at ride height but any flex and i imagine you're going to grab them pretty hard. Looks cool though.

Any other supporting mods or are you looking for a stance more than clearance on the rocks?

Are they STT Pros?

STT Pro 40x13.5x17

Eventually I'll switch to 5.36 gears. And if needed I have an AEV 2" puck lift.
