    Everywhere I went people said I could never get 35's under my Tacoma, they said the biggest I could put was a 33" tire (I have a 2006 with VSC so I can't do a 6" suspension lift) well I finally put 35" tires on my Tacoma. With a 3" spacer lift and a 3" Body lift, I just had to trim the body mount to get them to fit with no rubbing. What does everyone think?

    Ehhh....A body lift just to put some larger tires under the truck doesn't seem worth it to me...but I'm glad you are happy with it.

    Im pretty sure a 6" lift can be used with the VSC. It just needs to be recalibrated.

    Neither Pro-comp or Fabtech make one for the 06 with VSC. Just 07 and up they said the 06 use a different computer.
