    Cooper Discover STT tires 285/70/R17 (33s) Procomp 7032 matte black wheels 17x9 -6 offset. Front lift: Bilstein 5100 Adjustable Shocks set at 0. OME 885x coils. Rear lift: Bilstein 5100 shocks. 1.5 inch 3 leaf progressive. I still have stock UCAs but plan on getting aftermarket ones later. I ordered the shocks and coils from headstrong offroad and the 1.5 inch 3 leaf progressive from Wheelers Offroad. 50" Radius Light bar (From Sidetracked Offroad) Mounts from Relentless Fabrication.
    I plan on lifting my truck 3 inches here pretty soon and I just need some advice! I'm not really one to take my truck off-roading, but maybe on occasion bring it through the woods. (Not often though) I want to do 517 Fuel Krank wheels with 275/70 R18 Toyo Open Country M/T or Nitto Trail Grapplers. What 3 inch lift would you recommend for me in my situation and also one thats not gonna be super pricey. Much help would be appreciated!

    What does super pricey mean to you? To get the amount of lift you'll need to clear 33" tires you'll need the lift plus upper control arms (minimum $400) to get your alignment back into spec. Try some searches to see if you want 33's bad enough to lift/trim the amount you'll need.

    I don't mind paying at least $700-800 for a lift. Any recommendations?

    Start with the options at Toytec and then do some searches on the forum for more info. You can get basic OME lift for that much but then you'll also need the UCA I mentioned if you want your alignment in spec. I'm still not sure about fitting 33's with it though. Most guys run 32" tires.

    Hmmm. Okay, I didn't realize you could run 33's with 2.5" lift without some pretty aggressive trimming. He said he was going to do 3" which would warrant UCAs.

    Good to know. Did you just remove the mud flaps and trim the front of the inner fender a bit?

    I plan to buy the OME 3" lift kit for my 2013 TRD OFF Road, and want to know what is the biggest tire I can put on a 20" wheel. Would like to stay away from trimming anything. Thinking of a 285/50. Would I need UCA'S
