    I have a 2022 sr5 long bed and wanting to lift it. Things I do know I want is to do 2 1/2 inch front lift and 2 inch in the back and I’m planning on running 285 tire and I’m going to be running a leer bed cap. I just would like some suggestions on what I need to achieve that while running a bed cap. I know I want to run Deaver leafs in the back just not sure which model and I know I want a good shock setup with upper control arms. Just so much info out there and not sure if anyone is running a settup like this!

    With my experience because I have 285 tires, they will definitely rub on the OEM/Factory upper control arms (I've still yet to buy spacers), so that is a cause for concern there but you did say you were looking for different control arms so that may be your fix right there. I am running the OEM TRD Lift kit, and it has worked very well for me, yet it does seem a little "too" level for my taste, as I feel trucks like these deserve just a lil' bit of rake, but that is ultimately up to personal preference.

    My truck was lifted on 5100s w/ Eibach's, ICON RXT at option 3 and FN Fivestar wheels (wrapped with 285/75-16 Coopers) for almost 5 years. The rest were stock. Aside from rubbing on the mudflaps at full lock, going in reverse, no other rubbing issues
