    I have no experience with the Billy 5100s but I've read enough about them on this forum that most people (who know what they're doing) stay away.

    Your 265/75/16 is not that big of a tire. I believe you could easily get away with just an OME suspension and clear them easily. Someone else can chime in with their opinion on the 11.5" (approx) width and backspacing.

    I'm assuming you do not have extra added weight, in terms of armor, in the front or rear? Also is your truck the 3.4, 2.7 or 2.4L?

    There are just so many options. It all depends on your budget.

    Weird possible litigation issues with insurance/other party if an accident occurs even if not being your fault might sway your decision to not. You are disabling an OEM safety system that is becoming federally mandated. Think all vehicles must have those systems by 2020ish

    Toyota is washing their hands of this with plenty of lawyer talk when it comes to lifting/modifications that could affect any safety system. Scary time for the aftermarket industry. Couple that with 2 way communications without consent and who has access to that............ enter my conspiracy theories here........ I'm stockpiling parts and only owning vehicles produced before 2017. They are watching and going to start using your own possessions against you.

    Every time you collision avoidance goes off it takes a little video.........

    :spy:

    Keep in mind, if I get suicided tomorrow it wasn't me

    Looks damn tasty. When we were in MT on our last trip up there, tasted some good huckleberry beer and huckleberry lemonade with vodka, that was legit!

    hope that 50lbs of extra weight is not cause for a larger coffin. They are not cheap. I'm the flame and can type. Let me know when your core chores allow more chores.

    Get some kings for the front through Down South Motorsports (best pricing by far) and then hit up toytec for the rear, Carsen and Hugo were both super helpful to me when I needed to piece together my rear setup.
