Back on topic though, from what I have seen you could go with 35s if you had that kind of lift.

How about this,
A 4 inch suspension allows for 33's
Some people have gotten away with 35, but not a great idea in my opinion
Now add a 3 inch body lift and I think you could fit 38's
The body lift allows you to put 3 more inches on the top of the axle. So that would be a 3 inch radius increase...so 6 inches total. That would be a 39, but I would stick to 38.
That setup would be neat to look at, but completely unfunctional. An Ifs Bracket lift is like a suspension lift performance wise, no tire travel is increased. It's merely a body lift under the frame. Add a body lift and you have 7 inches of clearance and a higher center of gravity. It is commonly known that the strongest IFS rigs don't go over 33's. 35's are possible, but riskier. With 33's your axles and cv's will be pretty safe.
Rock on.

thanks deathrunner. does anyone have a pic with of a 1st gen with 35's? to be honest this truck is going to be a daily driven/snow tripping/trail riding rig and i want it to look good/mean and aggressive on the streets as long as with the trails. of course proper gearing is going to be thrown in the mix.=)

35's are the biggest I would go. Bigger than that you need to start worring about steering and brakes. 35's on steel wheels weigh over 100 lbs a piece. 33's should be good.

im going to put 35s on my 4x2 with stock suspension, but i will have a combo of 3"bl balljoint spacers and 4" front spindles
the bj spacers arent made yet, but im working with a company to make them now.....

33s are easy to fit and tried and proven. 35s can be done, but some people worry about steering components with 35s - not saying you shouldn't, just saying not enough people have done it for 35s on Toyota IFS to have much of a track record. Most people would advise NOT going bigger than 35s, especially if you're going to wheel it.

Don't you guys worry about your crawling speed getting too fast when you move up to bigger tires. Also i noticed that i lost a little low end torque (2H) when i moved to 31's from the stock tires. I would imagine that the loss of torque would get annoying as the tires get bigger?

ON my first gen I ran 33's with a 3 1/2 suspension lift on 15x8 rims and they did not rub ever. On my 90 I had 38s with 4" susp and 3"BL, they fit but rubbed a little. The 35s do not rub ever.
As far as braking etc and IFS durability, I think 35s are okay but I feel they are as big as I would go. If you really get hardcore a lot (or thrash your stuff) you might think about SAS but for the average wheeling it'll hold up.

and search it by tire size, suspension lift size, and body lift and it will show you all the pics you need. some good lookin rigs too.
