33's now 35's later...

okay; if i get BJ spacer + AAL to clear some 33x10.5's; could i then just add a 4" lift later with rear blocks to make room for some 35x12.5's or would i have to take the BJ+AAL back off to put on extra lift.
thanks.

Why not just bolt on the 33x10.50 with no lift since they will fit, and not waste the money on the AAL.

The BJ spacers will work (as a matter of fact, they were invented for bracket lifts), the AAL will have to be changed - probably to a new spring pack for that much lift.

So will the 33,s need new wheels with less backspace than stock to run without lift?

^^ Good question! TC, what backspacing are you running? Isn't AxleIke running stock rims because he has 9.50" wide tires?

SInce you are planning on 35's down the road, re-gear to 5.29's to avoid paying for it twice like I did a few years ago...

Both of us are running the stock twin-four-spoke SR5 alloys. Mine are painted though...

Mine are better than yours...

More backspacing= less arc=less rubbage on the fender. However, you must be careful. You need to pick a backspacing which keeps the tire off the fender, AND off the frame. Too much backspacing, and you'll rub the frame.

Lots of good info about what works and what doesn't for people here on this site.

Lastly, STAY THE HELL AWAY FROM BLOCKS. Aside from the thread above, I have seen these bastards SPIT OUT of a truck before. It was scary as all get out. DO NOT, DO NOT, DO NOT, DO NOT use blocks.
