Found a great deal on some American Mojave's on CL recently, added a 2.5" leveling kit up front and 2" lift in the back and slapped some 285/75/16's on. Just what the doctor ordered. Ready for Baja this Summer...

Suni,
Looking good and is something I've considered also. Just one question. Frome looking at Tundra Solutions and based on the name, I thought the 2.5 inch leveling kit in the front was all I would do. Then maybe go 33's all around. By adding the 2" in the back, does it still have the same old stance with the front end lower? Can you fit 33's in back without a lift?
Thanks.

Ted,
I snooped around quite a bit in Tundra Solutions too before hand. I thought i would just go with just the front initially but my 4x4 guy recommended the rear blocks for stance and to keep the airbags "thinking" nothing was different suspension wise. The stance is entirely different even witht the 2" in the back, no lower front end. The 285/75's are essentially 33's, I'm pretty sure they would have fit in the rear without a lift.

Looking good, i like the look and ride a lot better with my 2.5" front and 1.5" rear block (plus airbags.
the concern with 33" or 285's is clearance/rubbing on the upper control arm (i think that what it's called) you may need wheels with additional offset or a spacer if you're using stock wheels. again Tundra solutions has alot of information. I've looked at mine in the past and do not have the clearance for a larger tire so some day i'll probably buy the spider spacers and up size the tires. but than again i sort of like what i have, and start think about about loss of low end and gas mileage??
