    Maxtrax spindles with dakar leaf springs in the rear

    or Bilstein 5100’s all around with 885 coils, new UCA’s, add a leaf in rear.

    You will need to do the cab mount chop regardless of lift height.

    With 3" coil lift I ran 33's with FJ Trail Team wheels, no chop needed. Just plastic trimming. Your biggest concern will be tire width. OEM TRD Pre-runner wheels won't work if you go with anything wider than about an 11" tire, they will possibly run into issues with it rubbing on UCA's.

    with OEM TRD sport wheels you only need about 15mm's extra, 1.5" would be over kill and would probably make the tires hit the fender flares when turning sharp.
