Yeah it looks like the top plate on the front struts in actually the same and there is some mods needed to change the lower mount or some people say you can get a different bushing pressed into TRD Fox's. Thatnks for the info on the ride height. I think I'm gonna go for it and see what happens. I'll document the setup in a updated thread once I'm all finished. Cheers dude!

Good luck fitting 35's with minimal lift, but don't let me discourage you. You'll need a body lift and aggressive BMC as well as extended rear bump stops. Post results!

I've got some Rough Country coils sitting in storage I might use for test fitting and then get some Dobinson's ordered once I've got it all mapped out.
You can fit 35's if you're willing to cut. I don't think ride height actually has anything to do with fitting bigger tires. Just maybe makes parts of the process a tad easier. Wish me luck! I'll update when it's all done.
