2nd Gen 4x4 35s 3" Lift w/o BODY LIFT

Scratch the pics of the mud flaps. Lets see your friends truck.

 

Lol I thought that would get some interest he's on here but doesn't post, ill try to get him to throw some pics up when it's finished.

 

Looks good so far, I was just thinking of this the other day.

 

for install pics....not a bad idea for those with tire coverage restrictions

 

3.5" requires some different clearancing than 4-4.5" BS...mainly where you need to beat more on the firewall

i don't rub the frame at all, but i had to work the firewall a bit more...i love the stance

if you want full clearancing (lock to lock while stuffed), you'll need to convince the firewall one way or another

i rub a bit now on the top of my wheel wheel on the plastic and slightly on full stuff and full lock...but got it basically all cleared out

 

try sears?

 

Ok sounds good. I have no problem beating the firewall i just dont want to compress the setup and blow the fenders off.

 

i only have 2" cut off my fenders and they tuck in there fine

 

I already got MTR's maybe in a few years but I am guessing I will have a new want by then

 

THESE are the tires I like as well. I would need to see them in person or at least the same SSR in a similar size in person to see how aggresive the look to me. I run 255/85 R16 Cooper ST and this is the logical step to 35's on a Tacoma (in my narrow opinion). I know many of you like the 315/75 wide tires, but 10.5" would do me just fine. Going to have to wander down to 4 Wheel Parts and see if they have any Interco SSR's on the rack for me to eyeball... You guys are going to make me broke!

 

My truck is actually a 2013... ;-)

I've got a whole crap load of pics just need to find the time to post...

Though he may have a different friend who tubbed his truck...

 

Nope that's you lol def need to make a build post your trucks way too bad ass not to share

Thanks again for the mud flap idea, will keep the 5-0 away.

 

Ok, if the pictures show up, in the first pic mine is the little Spruce Mica between the two blue FJ's, rollin on 35" MTRs, does that mean I join the 35" club as per OP...? No body lift, I am prob only 1-2" of lift though, as you can see by the other trucks in the photo...

As for the second photo... Anyone care to guess as to why one has to and I'll quote "Beat the firewall like it raped my daughter."...? Well if you take a look at all that bracing in there and the fact that every 90 degree bend in a piece of sheet metal will increase the rigidity by 400%, well you start to get the idea, the firewall REALLY doesn't wanna go anywhere... ;-) Third photo is after cutting out what Toyota should have left out from the factory and welding it all back up, seam sealer and undercoated... I don't wanna hijack this thread so I'll try and put together a build thread for the curious...

 

I ran a set of 255 85r16 on my first gen, they were great tires.

 

maxxis bighorns?

 

can someone please post a link to slimwoods post where he cut again? Please? I'm on tapatalk and searching sucks.

 

my cousin has them, good tires. when they get worn they're pretty darn loud

 

Cut 2.3" and you'll be fine.

 

haha yea i like the sound too, i just put some 285 75 trail graps on yesterday

 

found them.
