Does anyone out there have photos of their rig 1979-1983 toyota 4x4 with a 3 inch Rough Counrty Lift? Any thoughts on the 3" Rough Country lift? I would be doing front and rear springs. Input is appreciated.

Here ya go.... I do have 1 inch longer shackles in the front ( I wanted it to sit level). 3 inch Rough County springs front & rear. So far so good..

Tires are 12.50 x 35 LTB's on 7 inch wheel.

I have had a 3" rough country on my '83 for three years and no problems. If that's all your going with you can fit 33's but with serious flex they'll still rub a bit. I have since put a 1.5" body lift moved my axle forward 1" and tubbed my front wheel wells to fit 37's. I'm headed to moab this weekend to see if everything works without rubbing. "Behind the Rocks" here I come.

gmack, where did you get that bumper? I am lookin for a bumper for my 82

Behind the rocks is cooool. I've never wheeled in Southern Utah, but I've spent a ton of time hiking, backpacking and some bike riding. Awesome place.

i don't even have a lift on my 81 and i'm running 35's. it rubs at full turn but not much.

yeah, as long as you keep wheelin it in the mall parking lot, it should be fine.

i am running 33x12.50's on 9 inch wide wheels, the only place they rub is on the firewall.

went up a run called "eagle creek." big rocks the whole 10 miles up a creek bed with no major rubbing problems.
