    Since everyone was a negative nancy to my 6 inch question I am looking at a 3 inch kit of some sort in the front and all pro leafs for the rear. What should I go with I want 3 inches and 33's but will also eventually run relentless fab bumper and winch. Will toytec coilovers sag to much with this setup, will OME be 3 inches with 886 coils and top plate spacers? I will be getting new uca's just want it a 3 in the front. Any pics with a replacement bumper and coilovers would help thanks for all yalls help

    A lift, some wheels, some tires, some performance, some cosmetic and then audio.
    Coilovers cranked to 3" and even higher for a heavy bumper is a no no. I would suggest OME with a top plate to get 3". Even 5100 with Eibach.

    yea a lot of people are running the 3" eibach lift springs with the adjustable 5100's this is probably the most bang for your buck. OME is a good choice also. coilovers are like 2x the price of these but they ride much better

    so would going with the OME
    Front coil options: 886
    Top plate spacers: yes
    Rear Options: OME dakar
    Front Diff drop kit: no

    or should I not get those leafs and do the AllPro leafs?
    does this sound good for 33's loaded with front bumper and winch and rear bumper?

    it should work. you can also rebuild your rear leafs for like $70. you just get a donor leaf pack from the junk yard, take some leafs off and put it on your stock ones

    because its bad for your CV boots, they could tear due to the severe angle. also, you wont have much down travel since the spring is preloaded

    Oh ya I know about the cv angles I thought yall meant its no no to have a coilovers with a winch and bumper. I was confused because Ive seen a bunch of yall running them with replacement bumpers I like the Icons and the Walker Evans from allpro. Never had IFS so I got a bunch of questions used to straight axles sorry.
