Question
what motor is in the truck your trying to put 35s on...bc regardless if you have the 4 cylinder or v6 its going to be way underpowered unless you put gears in it....then put a nice lift on it and it should be a beast wherever you take it

btw i have a rearend and a front end with gears ready to go in a toyota pickup for cheap

Dont crank torsion bars and put a shakle kit in the back. That shit rides like ass. My recomendation is spend a little more money and get a decent kit like fabtech or procomp. That what we use at the dealership i work at to lift all our trucks. Just did an 09 ram 1500 with a 6inch suspension lift. The whole kit was only $1300 minus the 35/12.50 and that will last awile.

I got a V6. But ya, re-gearing is going to be a must. How much for the two for my yota?

Mine rides fine It's a truck not a cadillac. What gears are you going to put in it? 35's is going to need 5.29's to even be similiar performance to stock.

Also, you never mention what your plans are for this truck. Serious off road or mall crawler?

Oh sorry not to inform, Its for off road. I love taking the yota threw some mud....just that the stock lift and 31"s can only go so far...
