    95.5 Tacoma 4x4 2.7 5spd
    Engine freshly rebuilt due to blown head gasket, built my own CAI, EGR delete from LCEngineering, Billstein 5125's in the back with GM leafs, I can't stand paying for something that I can make in my garage so I built my own spacers for the front and tweaked them for 3" of lift.
    Alright guys I'm doing a complete rebuild of my 95 Tacoma, Ive still got a ways to go on the truck but it needed tires and I spent the last 2 weeks in North Carolina for work and got an awesome deal on 5 33x10.50R 15 BF Goodrich mud terrains ($200) they are almost brand new. Now the Big question, what size, brand, setup etc. would I need to clear these? Also these will be mounted on 15x8 steel wheels. One more question the truck has a body lift on it, Ive never dealt with a body lift, so should I leave it on or take it off? Thanks

    Bidy lifts are fine if you make sure everything stays tight, and don't plan on jumping your truck.

    33's will fit with stock suspension with a little cutting required. you may not have any rubbing with already having a body lift. A good suspension lift will help with ground clearance, if you plan to wheel it though.

    Size and brand are your choice, and depend on your preference and how much you want to spend over all.

    Thanks, what about wheeling with the body lift, kinda seems that it wouldnt be safe for flexing?

    I am not a big fan of body lifts myself but to each their own I guess! You might have a lot more body flexing also with it while out flexing the suspension. I would think

    I haven't seen any damage caused by normal wheeling with a body lift. Most people hate them though. Not a big fan of them myself, but they do their job if youre not to hard on them.

    Not a fan of body lifts either, but I don't believe I've ever seen any of the problems that you mention.

    Simple, if you want to wheel hard, remove the bidy lift. If you don't plan to wheel hard, a body lift is fine.

    I think everyone here knows I wheeled the hell out of mine and I have seen no ill side effects from the BL. If you get one, I wouldnt go above an inch.
