    6inch block lift Iron cross rear and front bumper Nitto trail grapplers 35x12.50 Stock rims powder coated black Warn 10k winch Retro customz rock lights
    Hello all again, I currently have a 6inch spacer lift on my 2015 tundra and have been debating going down to the toytec/eibach 3/1 or stay where I’m at. I run 35x12.50 trail graps and do not intend to change tire size. Was just wondering if people run 35’s on their 3” lifts and how it is. Also if anyone has the eibach kit your info would be greatly appreciated. I’m mostly just driving around with mild wheeling but want to be prepared when I do go wheeling.

    It works well so far. Get UCA so you won't need to do a body mount chop to clear 35's

    With the right offset wheels and a little cutting you should be good

    True. Offset will determine cutting or not in addition to UCA or not

    You have a lift that cut the crossmember, it will take some work to undo. Hardly worth doing to run the Eibach kit, as there won’t be much advantage over what you have. If you are upgrading to something performance oriented, Fox, King, ADS etc. then maybe? Not going to be cheap regardless. Are you 2wd?

    Any other mods to make those tires work with that lift? Is the offset on your wheels similar to stock TRD Offroad wheels? lookin at that same lift and want bigger tires but don't want cut if I don't have to.

    you'll need +25 if you don't want to cut, that's the sweet spot. Many many threads cover what you're trying to do. Do the research and you'll be fine. After an hour if looking I was able to figure out what would work and what won't. Worked out great.

    I did very light trimming of the front fender well. But +25 seems to be a good spot!

    Don't forget that the offset plays a role in the equation. I want to start it's been 5.75 for clearance.

    Are those stock wheels painted or Plasti dip? They actually look great!

    Thanks my man! They are powder coated black, they do look really good for stock rims.

    You'll likely need to do some serious trimming. Maybe a BMC.

    Well what does the cutting of the crossmember do to where I can’t go down to a lower lift? How can I undo the damage? I want to go down to a lower lift but I’m wondering what it will take.

    Nothing, first see if yours is cut. If it is the old version it won’t be, there were issues so it was redesigned with cutting the crossmember, there are some things cut and trimmed on the old version as well, not sure if that will matter. Just need a competent fab shop to fix it if cut. Anything can be fixed with money, and you would definitely appreciate the performance gained by a proper mid travel setup.:)

    I’m trying to remedy an issue where I was doing mild off-roading and mudding where my shock tower broke and my shock collapsed. So I’d like to have confidence in my truck to wheel so this doesn’t happen again. I’m running 35x 12.5 20s and TRD pro suspension
