Yes. here's my 861/862 with 30mm spacers rear and 20mm spacers front and 285/75 muds, B&W filter courtesy of Google. she carries approx 200kg permanently including the rack, which with mediums at the rear means a little more loading and she sags, hence spacering. now comes level at around 400kg load
edit. on level ground with normal +200kg loading it measures 760mm from bottom of wheel rim to arch, on all 4 wheels. it was at 745mm at the rear with 15mm spacers, I recently changed them to 30mm.

Perfect, I have a rear bumper with swingout so this setup should be good to keep it around stock height!

yea.. have you got a front bumper on it too? the fronts are heavy rated, where the rear is medium, could do with some weight on the front too if youre going to get heavy at the back.
285/75R17 this is without the one inch spacers and I might go back to that.View attachment 1796198 View attachment 1796199
I finally got my stock height ome springs on the way for my 1991 fj80. I have 33x10.50s on mine. I took the summer to figure out if I wanted to do the 2.5 lift but I really did not want to mess with castor correction bushings. 3fe all the way!
That was among the deciding factors for me, plus I'd have to raise the garage door opening for anything much higher than stock. Basically, any 33" tire will fit, in my case the current tires are BFG KM3 in skinny flavor although the KM2s are on it in this pic..

I am looking forward to installing mine. just to make it drive a little less like an old cadalac. Thats a good looking cruiser! I like the steel rims. I have the factory "poor mans package" on my land cruiser and It still has similar 15" steelies from factory.
