3" Lift - Show your taco!!!

I can't see the 1" doing any harm, maybe a pain to install.

With or without the 1" body I'd really like to stuff 33's (285). I'm ok with trimming a little for no rubbing at full lock, but don't want rubbing for daily driving.

I'm currently running the stock 265/70/R16. I'm thinking with or without the 1" body I would be safe w 265/75/R16 just worried they may look too small w the lift...???

 

If you'd like a really good option and aren't hung up on a wider tire you can fit a 255/85/16 on your stock wheels or jump to 17's with a 255/80/17. These are dubbed skinnies or pizza cutters but depending on your choice of brands thy don't look skinniy at all. In reality they are only 1" more narrow than a 285 I believe and are a true 33 where the 285's are really more or less a 32. Because of the decreased width clearance isn't an issue and even though they are heavy (I believe all or most in this size are E rated) the decreased contact patch offers less rollig resistence so you don't "feel" the extra weight much at all if any. Just an idea

 

285 = 32.8" tire

 

Tons of folks run 2-3" lift with 265's, 255's on stock rims shouldn't rub with a 2-3" lift.

 

Ok I was wrong IDK WTF I was looking at. The 255's are only a hair taller pretty much the same I guess it's more if you want a wider tire or not i guess

 

Hell I had the 255's on mine with stock suspension and they barely ever rubbed once I did the lift no problem at all

 

See @TacoUSMC 255's for the win or break out the snipes and a sawzall.

 

I have them on the truck and love them. It took a while for folks to convince me to go skinny, but I really like it now. Hell back when I had my Jeep I ran 36.5x 15's we liked 'ed wide back then at least

 

It's perfect. Did you only do 5100's in the front?

 

Nice post! You see so much negativity around here sometimes

 

No need for negativity. Trucks are supposed to make us happy!

 

I will add 1" body lift before I got 34's or 35's. It's a lot of work for that 1".

 

You are absolutely correct! I try to be positive on here all the time. Even if somebody's truck may not be my taste I either just don't say anything or find something I like and compliment them on that. Yes, they are supposed to be fun

 

Thanks for not being like unchained.

 

Nice set up! I like the roof storage is that on a factory roof rack or aftermarket?

 

No market! I whipped up some crossbars before the trip once I realized I didn't have enough room for the. Whole fam plus the dogs and all our stuff.

 

Made them yourself now that's super cool!

 

I have made all sorts of stuff for my truck, bumper, sliders, I'm working on version 3 of a flat rack for the cab.

 

That's alot of my job welding and fabrication and I've made quite a bit for the truck but with no weldr or tubing bender at home I didn't try the bumper and sliders. I got the sliders used and had to do a bit of rehabbing to them and welded them on but not the bending

 

Here's my snow pick! 3" lift with 1st gen Tundra wheels and 255/80/17 Cooper ST MAXX tires.
