Nice truck Peter. Your truck is my twin, except for some sport wheels I just put on.

We're starting to get more Chicagoland folks on the board lately. We'll have to plan a meet and greet somewhere.
 
Do tell us more! Rubbing? Lift? Wheel spacers?

Nope no rubbing. I had the same sz tires of the Cooper discoverer stt on right before these. When I bought those I trimmed the wheel lining and carefully trimmed some fender I think. Was a while ago now.
I have the bilstein 5100s all around and adjusted to the max in front and the OME springs in the rear. Spider trax 1.25" spacers set the wheels out perfectly for this truck. Rides awesome.

I just went from the ATM to the MT Hankook. I loved them both but the MT's are so freaking awesome! Very sticky and go through anything! Congrats on the purchase!

New shoes. 265/70/17 Duratracs. They didn't make a 255/75/17 in LT so I went a little smaller. Replaced 275/70/17 Silent armours. On OME 885/895's, thye have dropped a fair bit over the years.

I haven't seen this lift on here yet. I wanted a lift that was a suspension lift but only 2"/1". I decided to go with Slees low lift kit below:
OME883 Front Coil Springs
90000 OME Front Struts
60004 OME Rear Shocks
OME895E Rear Coil Springs
Top pic is before, bottom is after. Sorry didn't take measurements.

As soon as I get some more pennies I'm adding 265/70/17 duratracs!

Very nice and usable lift! How does it ride?
 
Compared to my stock setup with 80k on it, it's a tad stiffer is all. My body sway is way down. Overall I would highly recommend for 2" lift.
 
TACO up front & FJ in the rear!

1. Lift brand & size/style: Taco & FJ Swap
-2014 TRD Off-Road Bilstein all around with front springs (1.75")
-2013 FJ TT springs in the rear (1")
*No Spacers!
2. Tire brand/wheel & size:
-265/70-17 Toyo Open Country AT II Tires
-Trail Edition 8-Hole Wheels
*Road & Off-Road worthy!
3. Like the results? or Would you do anything different?:
I love the tasteful lifted look and the fabulous new ride feel of the OEM Toyota suspension components I utilized. The perfect aesthetics and performance I was going for. I highly recommend for the daily driver/weekend Off-Roader balance. Also budget friendly...
