forgot to tell you guys with suggestions....
i do off road, the reason i want the lift is the bigger tires more clearance and better performance off road.

you have to decide weather or not you want performance or just a disco truck, if its performance you want there are tons of long travel kits out there that will give you insane wheel travel but will lift it enough to only fit 31" tires. Many people are confused about long travel kits by thinking it will give a truck a lot of lift, most only lift it 3-4 inches the reason people have them is the wheel travel, which equals speed in the desert, whixh seems a lot more worth it to me then rolling around on the street with 33's. i have a total chaos kit on mine which lifted my truck like 2 inches but i have 14 inches of travel, ive hit whoops and jumps at 60 miles an hour, hella of a bigger rush then rolling over speed bumps with 33' tires 2 ft in the air. Ive been checking this site out just b/c i have a toyota but it seems like everybody on this site is after looks, www.desertrides.com is a site where everybody only has prerunners and race trucks, it might be more of what your loking for |

Ive been checking this site out just b/c i have a toyota but it seems like everybody on this site is after looks Pretty bold statement there toyobeater. While very few, wait, I don't think any of the members on this board run desert races, doesn't mean that they are only out for looks. Our members run rocks and mud where the physical requirements are far different than desert runs. That said, 92mudtruck, you need to tell us what you are looking to do with your rig and why you are looking into 35's. You are going to need quite a bit of lift to clear them with an IFS. Probably 2-3" body and a 4" suspension. Do a search, this question has been asked 100+ times. Maybe not for your specific model, but definately for that generation truck. |

thanks for all the suggestions and im sorry that i bother you guys with such simplistic questions, but im not looking for a desert racing truck more of a trail rig and in my opinion 35 inch is just right b\c i think 33 is too small and anythin over 36 is too big so i guess thats just a personal call, also there are many brands out there of lifts and i would hope you guys could give a little info on wut brands are out there that are worth using.
