Alex T4R - awesome advice - thanks for the tip. I'm checking it out now, but that would definitely save a bunch of dough. I appreciate the help.

Thanks for the post, FrontRange4Runner. I tend to agree on working backwards, but it seems like some of it falls into a lump project. I was under the impression that bigger tires (which also includes wheels) necessitates a lift. If I'm wrong, please correct me, but if that's true, then all...
