How much of a lift do the landcruiser coils give?

Also, I want to put 33" tires on my truck after this little lift, but I was wondering if 35" could fit without doing anymore lift and without mauling the fenders? (I'm only asking because I'm confused about what backspacing is).

Thanks

I think 33's would be big enough for right now anyway. So that's fine.

What is the pinchweld? I'm assuming it's a weld on or near the front fenders. ??

And I don't see a website to explain the backspacing.. Maybe you didn't type it.

Thanks

I don't want to crank the torsion bars. I've decided against it because it's just too risky for me.

1inch lower in front isn't too bad. But I dunno if I could live with that. lol. I'm picky.

Something else I've considered is doing coil spacers(I rather not). but I think it might be ok.

If I have a saggy rear end and I put on 2inch spacers and 1.5inch spacers up front.
Judging by what you said about the landcruiser coils maybe it would be 1/2inch lower in the rear?

I know it's not right comparing it this way. I'm just trying to get an idea.

Also, the cruiser coils probably vary depending on how much spring they have? correct?

First off let me explain that you do not need a lift kit to fit 33x10.50 or 33x12.50. the 10.50 will fit with no rub at all, while the 12.50 will fit with some rub, backspacing will help take care of that rub
example:



Also you can do a body lift for Farly cheep
Example with 2" body lift
