    Me too, but I still have my 11 which I love and lucky me, I get to keep it for work! I just hope the 16 doesn't disappoint. To be honest I am a little worried!

    Was going to go with BDS 6 inch but shows need for 18 inch rims, I already pro comp 17's, something to do with larger knuckles! Anyone know a way around that like spacers or something else?

    Just talked to Ted at BDS! No point in waiting on their lift, he told me it will not work with 17 inch rims so back to the drawing board I guess.

    Are those OEM mudflaps? Does your front wheels rub the flaps? Are the flaps flushed with the larger wheels?

    If you want to run your 35s you can follow something similar to the toytec build. Run a 3" suspension lift and the 1" body lift. Will have to do an aggressive body mount chop as well.

    Silly question here. Ordered 4 5100 for my truck. Just want to level it out and I want to go with a 275 tire on stock wheels. I shouldn't need new control arms right?

    I talked two miles from Toytec last night, he gave me that option of what they did for their Sema build but said personally he would go with the BDS probably better off in my case and just add Spidertrax. He said he wouldn't worry about the spider tracks causing any problems which is what I also figured. I'm surprised bds wouldn't have wanted to help me come up with a solution and sell their product!

    I can't speak to the 275's, but it depends on what setting you set the 5100's at that will determine if you need UCA's.
    @.85 you should not need UCA's.
    @1.75 some specs will be borderline and may not get within factory specs, but they should still be within safe specs. Recommended that you get UCA's.
    @2.5 you will need UCA's.

    Procomp also has a 6" lift kit. Not sure on. The requirement on wheels though but you can also look into that as an option since your going with a drop bracket style lift.

    I talk to them also. They also require 18 inch or bigger rims. Fabtech was not open. Actually thinking I will go with the Rough Country four basic kit because 17 inch rims will work and I will upgrade the shocks and maybe a new leaf pack, so no blocks in the rear! Already talked with Alcan about a leaf pack.

    Didn't realize it would be such an issue or I would have went with 18 inch rims! I just like the look of more rubber and less metal!

    Thanks for that site! But it looks like they also call for 18 inch wheels. Probably the same knuckles as the BDS kit. Looks like Tuff country also has a kit that calls for 17 inch or larger wheels which might work. $250 more for that basic kit than Rough country, don't know what the difference between the two companies is.

    Zone and BDS are the exact same and same company. It's just not branded with BDS and carry the lifetime warranty BDS does. A lot of tundra guys run it. It just doesn't come with the skid plate also. If the tough country kits works with 17s for slightly more you should definitely go with it.
