'12 DCSB 4x4 mid travel planning/questions!

Good to know about the wheels and as for the spindals I had a feeling that was the case. Otherwise everyone would have them.

Thanks for the info. I will most likely do some wheeling for a little with my stock setup and if this hobby develops into the passion that I think it will I will upgrade everything to the full 3" aftermarket lift. Mine is about 2" on the stock baja so With a mid travel aftermarket upgrade and bigger tires it will be noticeably different. I hope!

And FYI I received my aftermarket bumper from Tyler at Prelfrybilt today. I have it getting sprayed with Line-X Right now and will be installing it next Wednesday.

 

VERY NICE!!!! Ya you and I are in the same boat. I also have the Baja. I spent the extra money so I wouldn't have to upgrade, and like you stated if it becomes a passion and I am out every weekend wheeling then I'll think about switching out the suspension. For now its more than enough. Just want to get some TC UCA's and call it for a bit as far as the suspension is concerned. What I really want to know if the Baja can fit 285-75-16's without to much rubbing/trimming

Definitely going to need a Cab Mount Chop and some trimming. Hopefully that is it. When are you thinking about getting them?

 

Well I only have 10k miles at the moment, so I was thinking about getting them when its time for new tires. Ya I figured the cab mount chop, which I will have Tyler take care of. I am not sure how long these tires last...

My brother's 07 Special Edition FJ got 80,000K on his first set. They were 265/75/16 BFG AT. It is my understanding that he was on the high side of what is expected.

 

I will be watching this thread very closely since I am in the same boat too. But with my budget I will go with Fox instead of Kings. I wouldnt mind the RCD 4" lift since you dont lose too much clearance, but I dont want to cut anything and I want to keep my stock 16" wheels.
Cant wait to see it all together!

 

Holy cow!!!

Sorry OP for hijacking.

 

Yeah peter has all the right ideas except for 4x4 and lift spindles dont work:/
Go here ( http://www.tacomaworld.com/forum/wheels-tires/102992-wheel-backspacing-offset-info.html ) to check out all about wheel spacing and stuff, and stock trd beadlocks would look awesome, I wish I was running 16" wheels but for now the 17s will do!

 

dudeee that is an awesome bumper!!

 

Hey everybody check out what my friends do, and holy fuhhhh i'm starting to catch the mod bug.
