    I have a 1.5" aal and tsb leafs on my 2011 dcsb. I am putting on toytecs 112-60 coils wih .85 setting on my bilsteins with a hybrid plate bumper. Whats the biggest i can go? im not a huge fan of wider tires im running 265/70r17 right now. toyo mts. would like to stay with a mt. Will that lift be considered 3" can it fit 33''s? what all do people trim to fit them anyways,

    If you are setting your bilsteins at .85 then it won't be a 3 inch lift. You only raised the rear by 1.5 inches with the AAL, so you will still have a slight rake. Unless the coils raise you up to even. Probably will want to stay with the 265's. Someone correct me if im wrong.

    the coils give about 1.5" and then the shock at .85 is close i guess but who really gets 3 actual inches. I had the tsb and the 1.5" aal done. so thats at least 2.5"

    But then add in the weight of the bumper. Not sure how much they weigh, but that could set you down a bit. And didn't know the TSB Raised you an inch

    Yes. They wont rub stock except flex/stuff and full lock, from what ive heard, so they wont rub with a lift. Im at 1.75" up front and they will be my next tires. Well 255/85/16 but same dimension.

    I think its actually a bigger trac than a 285 since its longer. Id say it would splitting hair everywhere but maybe sand.
