86 4runner body lift with auto trans

hi there im new to this site and a new 4runner owner i love my rig but im looking to put a body lift on it so i can put some 33" under her, the only problem is that i have the auto transmission and all the body lift kits say that it wont work with a auto trans. i would like to know if anyone has done this lift and what it takes to make it work,
thanks

they do make body lifts for auto tranny's, but the biggest you can get is probably gonna be a 2'' or so. check out marlin crawlers website they have tons of body lift kits you should be able to find one there. even with a 1 or 2 inch body lift you should be able to fit those 33's under there no problem

you really only need a 2" body lift to clear 33's if you have 31's or 30's right now.
from a 31->33 you're only going to see the tire grow in size 1" in all directions, so at the most you'll have to pound on the seam on the fender
