    My thing is thats holding me up is I want to run 33s. And not sure how it would look with a 17 or 18in wheel. Dont want to go bigger than 18in wheel probably and would like to stick with 33s to avoid regearing and MPG

    I run 33x12.5 on a 6" RC lift kit. About 14mpg. But you can fit 33s on 3" of lift. 6" kit is not needed

    Not much to cut. Some front fenders, relocate of the cab mounts and a snorkel and you're basically done. Regear if you want too.
    I plan on moving to 35's soon, but I might be closer to it than others..

    Im in the mainland and my truck is back in hawaii but here is a side shot. I have since removed the strut spacer and replaced them with full length coilovers and replaced the rear shocks as well

    What rear shocks did you go with? That was my next question. If I do the RC 6in I can just run the extended 5100s right? And I dont need longer brake lines?

    I'm running bilstein 5100 shocks all around. Bilstein makes shocks for 4-6" lift kits to eliminate the front strut spacer. Bilstein 5100 and ome 887. Size 12 slipper cor comparison

    Can you post a link on where to find them? So if you replace the front strut spacer and rear shock, what all do I need? (New to this) For the front, do I just need the new shock and thats it? Or shock and spring?

    6" RC Lift Kit, Bilstein 5100 Full length shocks front and rear, OME 883 Coils, SPC UCA's, 285/70/17 Cooper STT Pro's
    Rear shock: F4-BE5-B110-T5
    Front shock: F4-BE5-E122-T0

    You will need a spring on the front shock. Toytec 521600 or OME 887. Either will work fine. To lift the rear you can use a 6" block but I recomend replacing it with a full leaf pack by atlas. When I get more cash I will do that.

    Keep in mind that these shocks are only to be used WITH a 6" Drop bracket lift kit

    Sounds like a good plan. So I can start with the RC lift. And just add new rear shocks to begin with. Then later do the front along with the rear aal.
