my lift plans

well i already ordered 882 colis up front and n91sc and 891 and longer shocks out back goin with the ss adjustable panhard bar brake line and diff drop as for the bump stops im not sure .... as for wheels stock 5 spoke's thinking of painting them black ? and tires id like to go with 255s but there hard to come by so its gonna be 285s ill more than likely go with these from less schwab's for about 800 installed they look pretty decent

I think going the 285 route will be a better deal in the long run, especially getting them from Schwab's...Nice when you blow one 500-1000 miles from home and you can find a Schwab's in almost any town in the PNW..

Looking forward to see the lift and tires installed

Sounds like a good setup Elton. What did you decide on rear shocks?

You will rub on the upper a-arm with the Limited 5-spokes.
You'll need some 1/4"-1/2" spacers to clear them.

I rubbed on the '99 when I lifted it so I went ahead and upgraded to the Lexus wheels.

I think 1/4" would probably clear them but I honestly can't remember how much it rubbed.

That's a different a-arm than the one I had.
I had a '99 so maybe the difference in the suspensions is what screwed me.

Looks like you should be just fine, lucky.

Either way, looks like you should be alright.
Especially running A/T's.
