    Just insrtalled a 3 inch body lift and 315/75/16 Nitto's on TRD wheels with spider trax 1.25 spacers, Bilstein kit and 1 inch rear blocks. This truck is driven 70 percent on road and 30 percent off road in sand at the beach, no extreme off roading or mudding. I surf so my truck sees only sand in its off road adventures. This set-up suits my needs well and I am very happy with the out come. I had the install done by Eastern Truck Accessories and they do excellent work, as they have done 2 previous trucks for me. Hope you like the results. Next up Predator Running Boards. Check out my pics.
    PS: Yes the cab mounts had to be trimmed and gap guards installed, but it was done top notch and looks factory.

    Overall looks nice, I'm just never a fan of seeing the frame hang farther from the body compared to stock. Seems like it suits your needs plenty fine though for beach wheelin.
