    I currently have a 3 in lift on my 05 double cab trd and was wondering if I could clear 35's with a 2 inch leveling kit up front. Any input?

    Welcome to TW.

    Are you asking if you can add a 2" leveling kit to your 3" lift.?If so, the answer is no.

    Or are you asking if you can clear 35s on a 2" total lift? If so, the answer is no.

    So a 3" plus another 2" lift for a total of 5"? I don't think that's very safe dude. You can rock 35's with 3" but it requires a lot of chopping.

    However that would be the route I would go (Actually I am going that route, just haven't yet.) versus stacking lifts. This is actually better because it keeps your COG low while still enabling you to clear a larger diameter tire.

    Trying to figure out how he did that, I would love to step up but I don't know what else can be cleared. He had an engine cage so I'm sure he cut out all the stock inner fenders.
    But to the OP I clear 35s with 2-2.5" of lift, WITH fiberglass fenders, its much harder with stock fenders lol
