Are the 3" Rancho springs for the front or the rear? If for the front, then no you cannot combine the two for a total of 5.5" lift. You will kill more then your bj's...

Yeah, only use one of them on your truck, and then use the other one for paper weights...You can't get 5+" of lift without using a drop bracket lift.

where would i be able to get a drop bracket lift?.. i have been seaching for tundra lifts.. but the only ones that are out is the TC for 4.5" lift tundra 4x4's and i have only a 4x2 wich only leaves me with 2.5 of lift no matter whatout there right now. is there anyway to fab up a suspension lift so that i can use the spacer/coil combo?? i want to go more than 2.5" without getting a Body lift.

THANKS

3 inch spring and 3 inch body is all that is available. Lifting 2wd is tough to find parts. Maybe someone can make you a spindle to lift your front. I would look for a 3inch lift spindle and a 3inch spring.

Hope that helps.
