The Frankenstein Build! LT/Expo/Trail rig..and BS

I run 285/75/16..essentially a 33x10.5 on 16's. I also have the toytec coilovers. I had my assembled and sent to me tho. I also got the AAl, no block. It gave me enough clearance to run 33s, ive had a few moments they rubbed but very very rarely. The easiest fix for not rubbing on your frame or anything will be the proper offset of wheels, but wheel spacers can fix that.

 

Hope that helps for now!

 

Dude your awesome . And thanks Mizz any additional info is helpfull.
Ok ok no BLOCKS lol. I did think about the shackles however I was reading the FAQ on toytecs site and they say not to use shackles if you plan on towing or hauling any weight. What do you think about that? Im not planning on hauling much weight or towing too much. Just my motorcycle in the bed or possibly towing a small motorcycle trailer.
Oh I thought you were running the 33 x 10.50. Thats what im planning on. So knowing that will I be able to run this size with my 15x7 rims? Im assuming with the spacers,what size would I need?
Ah ok that makes a bit more sense about the dif of there coilovers, I actually called toytec and asked them about it, dude told me they were pretty much the same thing and they used the same shock, although he didnt really seem interested in what I was asking him.

 

Im sure the guys there get alot of those questions.

Hard to say what size spacer you would need, if any, it depends on which wheels you decide on.

As for the shackles, well my buddy had them on his old toyota pickup and he hauled his dirtbike all the time, never really towed. But honestly I am not to sure, I personally think the best option besides all new leafs is just an AAL.

 

Ya but its his job lol.
Ya im running stock 15x7 rims.
Im just trying to get a bit more height in the back to match the front, since im planning on around or just under 3" in the front. But I see you just used the aal the 2" ones? What do you have your front coilovers set at?

 

how have i not seen your build thread yet?

 

hmmm yea if my memory is right. 2in ones will level it.

2.5 on the coils. still rides decent, stiffer but i like it more...except washboard roads lol

 

Stiffer on road or off? And what are washboard roads? Does it toss you around?

 

Well both, it will feel more like a truck is supposed to. Not bad by any means but the coils are stiffer so ya.

Washboard roads....roads with lots of small bumps, usually dirt, really rough n bouncy that just kinda bounce your rear end if you go to fast or slow. But it usually does that in these, and most other, trucks regardless due to the lack of weight in the rear.

 

For 33x10.5s you will be fine man to run them on your stock rims. I ran 1.5'' spacers to push out my 10.5s for a more aggressive look, and you will need at least 1.25'' hub centric spacers to keep them off the frame when you at full lock. Check out spidertraxx or Allpro for wheel spacers. I have Allpros and am very happy with them. Also be sure to invest in the Extended threaded Lugs. Expeacsially for the fronts!

And if you get an AAL and a 1.5'' shackle..you will keep a rake stance and honestly i tow and haul crap all then time with my 1.5 shackles..and I'm fine. 1.5'' shackles merit about .75'' of lift so i think a 2'' aal and those would be good. You could always just add shackles too if you just get an aal for starters.

Just under 3'' then i bet you'll be fine with just an aal. you usually need about .5-1'' more out back to level it and around 1-2'' to get a rake stance.

cause your a loser haha

 

Ah ok good to know, bout the shackles I think Ill go that route, 2" aal and the 1.5 shackles. Btw what is rake stance? And got cha on the wheel spacers, although Im a bit confused about the extended threaded lugs? Your talking about lug nuts?
So I think I got it. Heres what im thinking, let me know if im missing something.

Toytec ultimate lift kit (with diff drop)
Allpro 1.25" wheel spacers
Allpro 1.5" rear shackles. says rear offset not sure what that means.
Extended brake line?

And I guess thats it?

 

could use get toyotech shackles too..really doesn't matter. Although there is a TW discount code for Toyotech so maybe you can save some cash there.


and yes extended thread lug nuts. They are on the bottom or the wheel spacer page at all pro. HIGHLY recommend getting them for all 4 wheels, but you should get them for the front no matter what.

Somewhere in this thread i have pics of them when i installed my spacers.. all pro seems to be having a good sale for wheel spacers too!

and looks good other wise! Maybe a BPV bracket too..

 

When you order the toytec ultimate lift i think they throw in their BPV..I replaced mine with jerrys but theirs did fine.

 

Here is my spacers post. You can see how much better it makes the truck look too. Tires are 31x10.5s, will do the same thing for your 33x12.5s tho.

 

oh good to know then.

And jerrys is freaking beef a fuck haha i love it.

 

Toytec only sells, 1 and 2 inch shackles. They also dont sell 1.25 spacers. So I found the shackles and spacers from allpro.
Ok Ill make sure to look into the BPV. if they dont include it.
Ill be running 33x 10.50

 

Try trail-gear.

 

They sell spidertraxx spacers..they cost a bit more.. id just get the all pro ones since they are on sale. And you can get the ET lugs from em too, which you NEED for the front!

odd..maybe they don't make them anymore..or maybe I'm smoking something and i just have 1''... whatever. Allpro is a great company and i have no doubts about running their stuff.

 

I feel like with jerrys, if the scenario arose, I could take it off and kill an animal with it.

 

you and your cheap trail gear crap jk haha
