yeah i like your truck, it looks real mean with the LTB's and the valance covers the part i hate most lol. yeah gears and a locker, man i will be 4.10 and open with the 34"s lol all good. i think i will go BJ spacers, 34" LTB's, and see how that goes, maybe a 2" BL max and put my valance back on... dont know about the BL hmmm

BackGateYota92

ya i thought about putting just the spacers and a 34 ltbs when i first got the truck but then i just said screw i wanna go tall and wide. lol the truck is not as slow as i thought it would be to be honest. i have a v6 auto with stock gears and it still does everything i want it to on and off road

91_TOYOTA_4x4

haha yeah your truck is high lol. i want my truck low like mr.matthew3. his is low with LTB's on post your pics page 103. really auto with 33"s gets you around? lol i think my 22re with my 5spd will handle 34"s

BackGateYota92

ya its hits highway speeds fine i can still hit 70 easy and prolly faster if i wanted to but my gas mileage is terrible. it would prolly be more enjoyable with a 5 speed but im 16 and spent all my money getting it the way it is now and a swap aint in the budget and parents wont let it happen. lol

91_TOYOTA_4x4

crap u must have a beast 3.0L lol thats quick for a 3vze and big tires and auto lol. yeah 5spd would rip better for sure. yeah parents hey, my dad didnt want me to go bigger than 31"s now he doesnt care lol im 18 in a week woot

BackGateYota92

ha i think people are quick to judge the 3.0 but im just not afraid to get on when i have to but ya my dads pretty cool bout lift and what not. heck he drives a pretty beast jeep on 35s that gives my yota a run for its money.

BackGateYota92

i think with bj spacers,34" ltbs, and a locker your yota would be pretty nasty man

91_TOYOTA_4x4

haha yeah maybe hey 3.0Ls are usually slow but my buddy the other day had to lay on it and he said it supprised him lol so who knows? thats funny my mom drives a jeep rubicon on 35"s lol.

you think? i think it would do alright with all that. but i think i will hold off on gears and a lockes until sas hah. i just need to make some money and get some LTB's hehe

BackGateYota92

ya i mean it aint a speed demon but when i put it all the way down it will go. i think you will be fine with all the stuff you mentioned man. im only really locking the rear now cause i found a used lockright. i dont see why you couldnt lock the rear right now unless you rather just wait until the swap.

91_TOYOTA_4x4

yeah. well maybe if i get some extra money i will toss a lockright in the rear who knows right. im gonna get the tires first then who knows. maybe i wont end up doing sas and just lock my ifs right. all i know is that 31"s arent cutting it for me and i really dont like em haha

BackGateYota92

ya dude you will love the ltbs. i just checked on summit and the 34's are 159.95 a piece

91_TOYOTA_4x4

sickkkkk haha thats decent price :p i need some steelies

BackGateYota92

haha ya man some 15x8 cragers and you would be golden. i think you would be surprised how much better it would with just the new tires

91_TOYOTA_4x4

yeah i need some cheap steel wheels. you think they will be a big difference to my muds?

Body lifts aren't that bad... You just need a strategy... 1 or 2 is ok. 3" IMO is dangerous... As in a wreck... Think about it... Frame stops and the body keeps going... The more you separate the body from the frame, the more leverage it has to separate the two.

If your strategy is cheap, just so I can put big tires on open diffs with stock gears... Then I'd say no.

I have plans for a low lift 35's...

I want BJ spacers, 1" BL and a 1" drive train lift EDIT: And 1" or more gas tank lift... I believe Rodger Brown has the motormounts and BudBuilt has the X member's...


That should net me 35's... with a TON of ground clearance to the frame.

I just hate fender trimming... I like it when a truck looks stock and beats the pants off trucks that are noticeably modded...

91_TOYOTA_4x4

lol dude im going to gear and lock it too? but tires first and yeah i might do a 1" BL just for the hell of it and BJ spacers. triming meh its just some sheet metal

BackGateYota92

ya dude i think you will notice a huge difference in tires. i mean the ltb's are one step below a bogger. lol but i really dont think body lifts are bad at all. thousands of people run em and never have a problem. just like anything else on a truck you just gotta check it and make sure everything is good.

91_TOYOTA_4x4

yeah true i just havent seen any body lift trucks i have like lol, until i saw your and a couple other haha. do they make like a 1.5" BL? i would do that. what size LTB should i get? 34"s but do they make different widths? your are super wide lol and what back spacing are your running? i want to run some 15x8 steelies

BackGateYota92

as far as i know the ltbs come in a 31x11.50, 33x13.50, 34x10.50, and a expensive 35x12.50. im running 15x10 steelies with like 3 inches of backspacing. i think 4crawler makes a 1.5" body lift to man.

BackGateYota92

as far as what size to get thats up to you. i like the whole wide tire look. im looking to get a set of 15x12 rims with 1.5" spacers and atleast a 14.50 or 15.50 tire. should be plenty wide. lol
