35s and a 4 inch lift???

Hey guys, currently I am building my 1994 Toyota pickup V6 3.0 liter. I’m doing a SAS swap on it with trail gears IFS eliminator kit. I’m also regearing diffs to 5.29 gears putting ARB air lockers front and rear. The kit I bought will lift it 4inches and I plan to run 35 inch tires, will they fit well? Will I need to trim? I want to be ready for the rocks, snow, mud whatever. Also i plan on putting 63 inch chevies in the rear

Did you buy the 4" springs ifs eliminator kit? It will probably end up being more than 4" over stock if so, probably closer to 7 total.

A sas with FLAT ruf springs gets about 3" total.

Your 35 should fit no problem.

I think my 88 has smaller wheel openings and my 35's clear. Same TG IFS eliminator kit and 63" Chev's in the rear also. I set my bump stops where the springs go flat but, not negative. Now that I think of it, same kit my son used in his 91. Zero issues running 35's.

after using a T-G kit on a previous truck- be sure to no fully weld the front spring hanger in place until you verify your shackle angle with the weight of the truck on the springs, sure the spring will settle over time but if you use T-G's instruction and fully weld the front hanger you could end up with a near verticle shackle angle. Plus the design of the T-G hanger adds almost an inch to the lift. By just doing a some good tacks you will be able to adjust the front hanger placement if you need to.

I went with a Low Range Off Road low profile front hanger to help keep my truck from front sitting up high as heck, you want it low for rockcrawling.
T-G's 4" lift comes out more like 6" IMO, rattlewagon's 7" estimate could be pretty close too

as far as 35's fitting, it will be no issue. my 94 with no lift and 35's as a test fit

i used the tired T-G 4" springs from my 81 Trekker up front (yes i know it's a 4runner but the front suspension is the same)
