You could also just spring for a diff guard???
I was thinking about the Diff guard option, but my suspension has 110K on it and i need a new steering stabilizer, so i figured it was time to Replace it, but don't want to pay for just stock equipment, which is the same price as a small lift for larger tires and a little more clearance.

If you go for a weld-on diff guard, it's not much money and well spent. Then fill up the gap with expanding foam so you don't have to clean out rocks and mud after wheeling.

You are in soooo much trouble now. A few weeks ago I put TF HD lift on with Toyo Open Country A/T 255/75r16. Next thing I could not sleep out work. I was all over Craigslist, Ebay, the forum here, and several local machine shops. I wanted more. I had found and downloaded several plans for a new rear bumper to match match the ARB on the front. I wanted a snorkle kit, safari rack to put the 800,000,000,000 candle power of lights I needed.... Luckily I did code across a sweet deal on a safari rack. That has eased the shakes, but I'm still dealing with the cold sweats.
