lift with just bj spacers and fj80 coils?

Here's the deal...I've got the fj80 coils on my 4runner right now with a bit of t bar adjustment. It seems to be fine. The front is a little lower than the back and I've thought about fixing it to return it to the same, but just haven't gotten around to it. I wanted to ask what would be wrong with putting the bj spacers up front and the sdori coil spacers in the rear?.....if I level it out then put these in it should be fine right?....I plan on running 33's and don't see any reason why this would work. Plz, let me know your thoughts

I would think with the FJ coils and BJ spacers it should be pretty even front and rear. You could probably relax your T-bar adjustment, too. Why would you want to put coil spacers on top of the FJ coils? 33's should fit just fine without much lift.

i didn't know SDORI made coil spacers. could you post a link?
as for the bj spacers and FJ coils, i am running that set up with a little bit of tbar crank to level the front with the back. i am currently running 33x12.5's and barely having any rubbing issues, i would just have to do a little pounding. i went offroading last weekend with the sway bars attached, and i didn't have any rubbing at all. i am planning on doing a 1" RB body lift, but i think with a little pounding, you wouldn't need a body lift. if you would like pics of my rig, click on the webshots link in my sig. that has a few pics of before (31.10.5's with bj sapacers and FJ) and after with 33x12.5s

cool...I'll have to check out those pics. I wasn't sure how much lift I got out of the fj coils and was concerned about getting 33's with tons of rubbing. Strap22 has those kits with the bj spacers, coil spacers and ome shocks so I thought about just picking up one of those. I'd also thought about a body lift, but didn't understand why the other wouldn't work.....here's that link.

cool, but keep in mind, that just becaue they fit the 4Runner coils, doesn't mean that they'll fit the FJ coils. they're a little different, but they might still fit. as for the amout of lift the FJ's will give you, its about 3"
