When I bought my 60 it had a poorly done SOA with a 4runner rear axle and stock springs.
Even with the stock sagging springs, it is just too tall for my( and my wife's) liking.
Ive already gutted the thing for body work and paint and am currently rebuilding a FF 80 axle to go under the rear.
I cant find a source for stock height springs for a low SOA, I don't really want to french the leaves into the frame, and dont have the time and money to do the coil conversion that I really want.
If I went with the Cruiser Outfitters 2-3" lift plus shackle reversal it will get me close to 4" of lift.
I really want to figure out a way to retain the 35's but stay as low as possible. I know I will probably need to massage the fenders to make them fit.
I don't plan to do any really hardcore rock crawling (but my balls want me to be able to go anywhere in the world), but I do want it to weekend exploring. No daily driving.
All this in mind, I feel like the correct thing for me to do is SUA and try to fit the 35s.
