1991 pickup. Bj spacers in front; what for rear?
My tires are rubbing a little (32/11.5/15s on 15x10 wheels) and starting to chunk off so I've decided to throw a lift on ASAP. Also plan on going up to 33/12.5s after the lift. No body lifts. I'm doing a 3" Bj spacer up front, but I'm not sure what to do for the rear? Shackle? (Proper shackle size to get to match the Bj spacer?) Block? Zuk mod springs? Not doing AAL. Don't want the decreased ride quality.
Here's how my truck looks sitting level, not a lot of sag but defiantly lower in the rear just a bit. And I want it to sit pretty level in the rear after I add the BJ spacers.
Here's what I found, if blocks the best option, should I go with this kit since it comes with everything? No idea what the dif drop is for, pry wont use it. Also, why is it 3" in the front and only 2" in the rear? Is there something I'm missing or? Shouldn't it be 3" all around?

And if Zuk or shackle is better, shoot me a link to what I should get! I just have no idea what length to purchase to match the spacers to get it level. These are the spacers I'd probably use unless you have a better set for a better price. Also shocks as well, 80% DD 20% wheeler.

If your 32s are rubbing now, a 33x12.5 will rub even more. My guess is it's your 10" wide wheels that aren't helping and guess you're rubbing on both the pinch weld and the bumper/valence when you turn all the way. My truck sits at 22.5" from center of axle to bottom of fender, with 33x12.5 on 8" wide wheel and I still had to modify those areas to keep from rubbing.
With the questions you've asked I think you should take a read through some of the lift guides for IFS Toyotas, as well as read some of BlazeN8's posts regarding IFS setups where he talks about BJ spacers.
