    Let’s try this again! I posted in the TRD Suspension lift thread by accident :duel:

    What’s up everyone. I decided on my lift kit but was wondering what else would be needed/required to complete the lift. I was back and forth between a King and Dobinson’s lift and ultimately decided to go with Dob’s IMS Lift. Here is what I have ordered:

    IMS Lift Kit
    Teal Springs
    Front- C59-838 (3”)
    Rear- C59-841V (2”)
    Rear shocks- IMS59-60687 (Non-long travel)

    I purchased the following as well:

    Duro bump front bumps
    Timbren rear bumps
    Icon sway bar drop
    Icon UCA’s

    With the 3/2 lift what additional parts would be needed to complete the lift if any?

    Extended brake lines, ABS brake line brackets, etc?

    I also have the option to go to a 2.5”/1” lift (2” springs and adjust the seats to add the extra 1/2” lift per Dob’s recommendation). If the 3/2 lift is going to cause undue stress on axles, CV boots, ball joints, etc I may go this route.

    I plan on running 35x12.5 R17 tires with 17x8.5 +18 wheels.

    Extended rear break lines should be it and go from there

    Thanks buddy! I was concerned that with the 2” lift in the rear it would require more than just the extended brake lines.

    Abs line and parking brake lines might need some attention.

    Thanks Brian truck looks really good!! Appreciate the info. Looks like you have a slight rake so if I went with 3 / 1 then I should be able to get it pretty level.
