Building up my Snow Beast

Hey everyone,
My Taco: 2003 Tacoma DBL Cab 3.4L (I will post pic later)
I am a new member. Have been reading these forums for about a year now and i'm still very addicted.. Anyways I thought i'd create my first post. I've seen posts on here with plenty of different opinions on lift kits for first gens.. Personally I have decided what I want but I want other peoples opinions and recommendations. I am looking at getting the ' from Wheelers Offroad. I need new leafs anyways. What else do you think I will need. I work at a fab shop so I will be cutting my fenders and getting new tires and wheels... Also looking for recommendations on wheels/tires. (I would like 33s)

Thanks, please don't roast the new guy lol

 

For snow? All you really need is aggressive tires and lockers front and rear. The OME lift is what I recommend to everyone (even though I'm not running it). If you can weld stuff yourself I'd look into a spring under axle setup as they are much stronger and have more flex. In the very least, with access to welding equipment, I'd look at after market shock mounts for the rear axle to fully utilize all the flex on the OME springs with a longer shock.
