Started buying pieces to get my OEM lift. I purchased 97 FJ80 Front Coils w/ 100K miles for my rear, one measuring 19" and the other measuring 19.5". I also purchased some brand new 95-97 FJ80 rear shocks. So far, I have the rear lift complete besides the panhard drop bar, and all it cost me was $122. Now for the front, I'm not sure if I'm going to go with the Tundra spring because the FJ80 coils will give me about a 3-4" lift and the Tundra coils will only give me about 1.5" or so give me an extremely raked look which isn't all bad, but I'd rather have things be almost level, I want the front and rear to be no more than 1-2" different. Can someone suggest a front setup which will yield a 2.5-3" lift and still be a good match with the FJ80 coils? I will be getting a differential drop kit to save the CV joints.

Just got my FJ80 LC springs, and all I can say is, that there are really long. Now I'm waiting for the FJ80 LC shocks.
 
i want to know where you got the parts list to lift your truck like this? and a differential drop kit is not the only thing you need to worry about when lifting your 3rd gen above 2.5" have you thought about extending your brake lines? are your driveshafts going to be the right size to not cause premature wear/early failure? i have heard of using the tundra springs for a lift about the same size as the OME lift kit, i know there is more, but this first week of school has again fried my brain! and dont forget to attach pictures, what size tire are you going to shove under there?
