Lift Kit Needed ?

Thinking about putting some larger tires on my 87 F-150 4X4.
I want to use some BFG All Terrain T/As 32/11.50/15 but don't want to install a lift kit.

A local dealer says he had this tires on an 89 Bronco with no kit and they fit fine and the truck should have the same clearance if not more.

I ran 33x12.50R15's on my 88 F150 for about twenty thousand miles (at stock height), with only a slight amount of rubbing on the radius arms at wheel lock. Depending on your wheel backspacing, you shouldn't have any problems.

That's awesome, cause I was told the 32/11.5/15s were the largest I could go with but you proved them wrong !
