    Hi.

    I’m ready to toss my Rough Country 3” lift, I just really dislike the feel. It’s on a ‘15 access door. Whatever, I rushed once I got my first yota and now I’m going in reverse. Live and learn.

    Got in touch w a legit garage from what I see so far, Ok Four Wheel Drive, in Jersey. If anyone has had an experience, please let me know how it went. Anyway, I’m looking at a 6” Fox suspension lift BDS. It runs about $1899. Also going 35s. This is just the plan as of right now. Still gotta go visit the place and look at all options.

    Also, unfortunately the SCS wheels I was looking at, both don’t come to the specs I need. The Ray 10 and F5, so if anyone knows of a comparable look in another wheel, please lmk. Or just a classic, badass offroad rim in general.

    I also plan on putting a softopper and going w STT Pros

    So, have you had an experience w ok 4 wheel drive?
    Anything I should be aware of going 6” and 35s besides gas mileage etc.
    And wheel recommendations. And pictures are welcome, please!

    Thank you for reading!

    Looking to hear from anyone running this kit. How do you like it? What size wheel/tire combo did you go with? Pics would be awesome.

    Thanks!

    With that kit you will only get 3 inch max out of the lift, but you shouldn't be above 2.5 if you are a 4wd. You won't fit 35's with that lift alone. You will need to cut, trim, and hammer, then maybe cut some more. You will also need to regear at that point and you need to regear both differentials.
