Default Rock Stomper on CC-01?

Hi im planning to get the 1.9 rock stomper for my bone stock CC-01 Land Cruiser. My question is, is the tires just bolt in and play?or do i have to cut/trim something?i dont like cutting so im hoping it would be a direct fit..thanks

Without a body lift rock stompers will be too tall for the CC01 Chassis. Tires like the dirt grabbers and mud thrashers would be a better fit. Anything over 4 inches will normally be too big on the CC chassis, so I would go 4 and under which includes tires like dirt grabber, mud thrasher, tomahawk, etc.

Hope that helps

If the new tires are a tight fit you can always break out the dremel and clearance the front suspension parts, install some spacers front and rear and make a cheap suspension lift (its easy, just remove the shocks and grind away material on the arms til you get more droop)

They will fit, no issues with a arms or suspension parts. Will have to chop the body all to pieces though.

ahh ok my LHS here in the philippines only has the stompers or the prowler,The prowler is under 4 inches so can i just buy that instead? Does the prowler has the same performance as the stompers? Thanks!:evergreen:

this thread has SOME info on the front lift Blackfoots CC01 Project with Some simple DIY Mods

Basically once you get the added front droop you can just stick a 1/4 spacer above the shock mount, then screw it back on with a longer screw. Or get longer shocks. Same works in the rear, you can get a spacer or longer shocks.

i wish people would stop saying that 4in plus tires don't fit. they will fit on factory set up, but it will depend on your body fit, triming the front of your chassis,and possibly wheel offset. its not hard. just use a marker to mark out where you want to cut\trim before you do. i go back and forth from rock crushers and flat irons on factory suspension. other than the front of the chassis i have not modified the factory chassis\suspension.this pic shows my chassis before i trimed the front to match the body.

rockstompers are very hard tires so they aint the best performance wise no as far as them fitting u got some options, 1st put them on and let them rub, 2nd wider hexes different rims and they should work but will be spaced way out, 3rd body lift, if it was me i would check some online sights for more options

Flat Irons in G8 work really well on a CC01 too. Thats what I have on my Brat I think they are 4.25 tall or so.
