I would be tempted to put the lift on first to avoid screwing up the tires since they are probably big enough to scrub real bad without the lift............

There not going to rub on the street. I measured and camel cut-ta-did. However I'm gonna have mud tires and offroading is just gonna be soo tempting.

I have the same lift, and cant imagine anything much bigger than my 235/85's fitting without some major cutting. I done some minor trimming on my front bumper and a 7" tall by 2 1/4" wide cut off the rear quarters dont see how you could stuff a tire of that size very far. Best of luck though and I am sure they are awesome tires

Hmm... The body lift idea is starting to scare me. I have done them before on a 4runner. But It wont have any bumper relocators so I will have a 2" gap untill I build my bumpers.

And I have the weld the steering shaft which im fine with. An inconvenience but its doable.

Its 260$ though and a 1" spring spacer is 100$.. But then they will require 100$ brake extensions. Which I should get anyways..

and you may be right, but im still 100% confident they wont rub on the street. Front bumper is NO issue and rear quarter panel is CHOPPED. only two issues is the rear of the front well and front of the rear well.

Cant wait to have lifted truck agian. I miss my 4runner just because of that.
