    Things. Stuff. Lots of bad decisions.
    Mostly Zip-Ties
    Long term lurker, short time member, first time poster and watch out... It's a lift question...s. I've scoured over the search function results... Figured stoking the fire/poking the bear could yield some more direct, better answers.

    I purchased a '13 TRD DC O/R last month and after a lot of reading, decided shoving some 255/85/16's in the wheel wells was a good idea. Now I need some altitude. Badly - see thumbnails.

    I mainly run trails, rocks when I can find/get to them, and the beach. At first, I was leaning towards the full OME 3" with Dakars, 886's and a mild spacer for extra lift. Did some search and review, found Bilstein has some beefy coilovers for Tacos, the 6112's. Bilstein recommends using the 5160's in the rear. I'd still like to run the Dakar leaf packs from OME and a mild spacer for some extra height.

    Enough about me, I wanna hear from YOU.

    Anyone have any experience with this setup?
    This setup AND Dakars?
    Something similar?
    How many miles would you say you have on your lift?
    How do you like it so far?
    Does your setup perform well off road?
    What about on road?
    What was the purpose for your lift (i.e. form or function)?
    What was your budget?
    Knowing what you know now, would you have done anything differently on the same budget?
    Any other bitches, moans, groans, complaints, accolades, compliments, or commendations you could add?

    Covered in stickers and chrome stick-ons for extra horse torques and foot powers. Icon sticker gets me tons of travel, dozens of milimeters.
    I don't feel like typing a ton right now: mud terrains for the beach? That's gonna be fun.

    I'm curious.........how's the rub on those? Overall diameter on BF-Goodrich's website says 33.3. I have a set of Cooper S/T Maxx's in the garage waiting on a lift......i don't know if i really want to wait.
