Hammer the pinch weld in the bottom rear corners of your front wheelwells flat no matter what. How wide are the wheels you'll be running? How wide are the tires? Do you care about your plastic inner fender?
I have 35x12.50 Baja Claws on 10 inch wide wheels. With a 3 inch body lift and 4 inch suspension lift I can still make them rub the pinchweld/inner fender lightly if I try. The biggest factor is the width of your wheels. The wider they are, the more lift you need. Otherwise they'll be hitting that damn bottom rear corner of the fender. Especially with the suspension compressed.
With 15x8s I could probably clear 37x12.50s...I just couldn't afford them.

I'd say if you can weld, tub the firewall, and trim the fenders, that would be SICK, Low COG, Minimal Lift, Max Clearance.. Or do a 4" Bracket lift if you can find one used like I did.

I'd be more worried about turning those 36's with your 4.10 gears and a 3.0h
I had to trim/grind the pinch welds to clear my 31x10.50 on 15x8 but they would only hit if I got into a real nasty spot. Only took me a couple minutes with a cut-off wheel in a drill(all I had).

I put my 36/14.5/15's on my buddys 4runner and it looked sick. 3inch bl and it looked like a little arctic truck. we didnt have to mod anything but they were on a 8.5 wheel with 4inch bs and the suspension part was tight.
it even fit in the garage
