Rear shock length set up

Hi, I know this is an over asked area and I have done research and know what I need to do, but I just have a few small questions.

I have a 93 runner all stock and am planning to maybe put 32x11.50 MT's (or stick with 31's) on it and am definitely planning a rear lift. Downey HD's and ranchos. My ques. is can I still go with the 5009's which everybody uses for their 3 in. lifts, in case I want to step up later and get the spacers, etc.? Will this be too much length and mess with my compression etc.

Also will the 1.5 lift in the rear be enough for 32's? I don’t mind MINOR rubbing cause this thing will just be a hunting, off roading rig, but I don’t want major rubbing if possible, even with minor trimming etc. I plan maybe doing the BJ's up front too to get the travel and if I need it for the 32's.

Any and all info on this stuff will be much appreciated, thanks guys.

welcome to the site... should be fine... the front is more where rubbing would occur.. there normally isnt much issue in the rear with rubbing, your idea ought to be fine
