    3 inch lift. 285/70
    Currently have a rc 3 inch lift but after doing some research and seeing how bad it can possibly be for my truck I wanna upgrade. But I can't afford oem. I already have 285/70/17 so I need something that will clear those. Any ideas. I know 5100 will work but not sure which kind to get the adjustable or something different.

    OME and Bilstein's are about the same price, but worth what you pay for them..

    I'd just go with the kit that I linked then. Then you can stay within budget if you pay someone else to install it. For the options, you'd pick 2885 or 2887 coils (2885 is ~2.5" lift and 2887 ~3" lift), no strut assembly, no light racing UCAs, and a 3 leaf AAL. If you want to, just call @HeadStrong Off-Road directly and have a quick chat with Marie. They're very nice and will answer any questions.

    I have a DCSB Prerunner and installed 884 coils on the OME sports shocks and got 2.5" lift on the front, not sure what 885 on bilstein would do for you tho.

    You can go with a toytec 3 in lift. The one that I just got is an add a leaf+new coils and coil spacers. It clears my 33 inch tires with a tiny bit of trimming
