Another FJ Spring/Bilstein 5100 set up question

[Top Shelf Synthetics]

ARK, thanks for the reply. I followed your post for awhile when I was planning my setup. Thanks for the great write up and info. I love the look of the 75 series with this lift ~1.5-2", I'm just wondering if the sidewall my be to high and not allow the wheel to articulate enough. Have you ever noticed any rubbing say while going over a speedbump or anything, something where the suspension really compresses? I'm not planning on doing any real rock climbing, but we do have a few washes that have some nice dips and want to make sure the suspension will be able to flex enough without the tire getting in the way. There is only a .4" diameter difference from the 70's to a 75, it shouldn't be an issue, I think i'm just over thinking everything! Thanks again!

I've not noticed any rubbing at all, but all my driving has been on road thus far.

90scman- Thanks for the input on the install, that helps alot. Kinda small world, I was born and raised in Buffalo, NY. Moved to AZ after college in 2000. I'm originally from Amherst, lived right by UB north campus. Where abouts are you if you don't mind me asking?

thats 2 funny, small world 4 sure, im in nt near the blvd. i want to move down to the south west but im waiting on some job stuff to come back. no prob on the lifting info. i like to help when i can. it was a pain when i did it but with those tips you should be well off and should have to replace your upper ball joint or tie rod.
