    With a 2.5-3" lift, if you put 285s on you'd still probably need to trim. I run 265/75r16s with my 2.5" lift. The perfect size would really be 275/75r16 but no one makes that size. I'm not saying 295s would be impossible, but I think you should read some of the tire size threads on here before purchasing.

    Yeah I understand. I've talked with a few people with the same truck as me with 295/75r16 and 3in lifts and it's do able just a bit of trimming I'm going to have to do

    Well plus the install fee of coils $100 if Toytech does it or $40 if a local shop. Or $5 if you install the coils yourself. Then your still looking at LIght racing ucas for around $300 so roughly the lift between $1200-1300 buck a roos.

    Just get bilsteins and put them on the 3rd or 4th notch. If your just looking for a lift that isn't crazy expensive you can't beat it. As for offroading, it's definitely not the best but you'll be able to put tires on it. If you go larger get the can mount chop plates and trim away.

    I did 3rd notch and 285/70r17. Did all the trimming of plastics and the CMC. Its to hold me over until kings, spindles and uca next year. But that's mucho dinero

    It's a 7 leaf spring pack that replaces the stock leaf springs in the rear.

    It's possible. You probably can't do it with stock wheels though. Spacers might be sufficient but either way, wheels or spacers are going to put you even further past your $1000 budget.

    Yeah, the $1000 is just for the lift. Putting about $1800 into rims and tires

    Check the vendor section on here under Toytec. Or you can do like I did and just call them and order and ask about the discount for TW members. They'll take it off then.

    Good deal then. Just keep in mind that if you need new UCAs it'll be another $400. And there's a lot of little things with these lifts that add up in cost like fixing vibes after you're lifted and new cv boots. All of which are more problematic the higher you go. Just want you to go in fully understanding the costs so you don't spread yourself to thin.

    You'll want to get new UCA's with any 3" lift kit. The light racing are the lower costs one to go with.

    You can also watch on here for group buys and get some good deals unless you're just in a hurry. I bought my UCA's before I bought my lift on a group buy in here for $375 shipped. You can find the deals you just have to be patient.

    Covered in stickers and chrome stick-ons for extra horse torques and foot powers. Icon sticker gets me tons of travel, dozens of milimeters.
    If you like turning 4* off center and no more....
