    Like you’ve found, some people don’t like spacer lifts. You said earlier that you don’t really off-road and you are saving for a
    Nice set of shocks. I think you are just fine, as long as you can get an alignment within specs, if not, there is plenty of companies that sell aftermarket control arms that will help with that. But the people aren’t wrong saying you could potentially be using your shocks as a bump stop, which shouldn’t matter a whole lot in your scenario. Only way to truly know would be to pull the coils off and cycle your suspension. But to answer your original question, you’re tires will fit just fine. As with any question on what tires will fit with my lift, I think it was @WormSquirts who posted a video from his company that truly explains how an ifs suspension “lift” works. Good luck in your endeavors, mine has just led me down the Long Travel hole! Like many, waiting on shocks!!

    And awesome how you want to learn how to work on your trucks suspension. It kind of bugs me when people ask if I’m going to install that myself, my answer is always yes, why wouldn’t I!?

    Redoing some of my work on the harness.

    Finishing up the harness and some of the wires were too short even though I made them slightly longer. I pulled all of the tape off. I bought new wire (more flexible than the old wire that I was using), and I’m picking up a couple connectors from Toyota this week. I also ordered new terminals from https://www.corsa-technic.com/index.php

    I’m also checking connector pin out before taping up the harness.

    Added a Bully Dog GT mainly for the gauge function the tune function makes a very minor difference.

    That is fantastic! I rolled over 22K last month a day after completing a 965 mile trip to Bend, Oregon and back, now around 22,220 miles on the odometer (next dealer oil change was scheduled at 22,550). It showed 18.6k when I bought it from Dad's estate last July. We had the same specs, but he passed on before he was ready to give up seeing it. Upgrading to travel the NW to revisit old hunting and fishing spots this year, and NHOU frame treatment. My kids want the truck... but they like my additions.
