    I got a 2021 SR5 Premium on order so I’m trying to game plan now. First and foremost will be kings,SPC UCAs, and idk what rear coils yet. I want to jump straight to 35s after the lift is done. The problem is I’m not adding the C4 front bumper just yet so what do I need to do to make 35s fit for now besides cmc and/or BMC? I’m trying to avoid buying 285s then next year buy 35s. Also, should I get 750lb coils now and heavies in the back even though I’ll be stock up front and in the rear until skids, sliders, front and back bumpers are added? Or do I just spend more money later on to change the coils out? Too many ways to go… :spending:

    Personally I’d regear before doing 35s. As far as the suspension, order the Kings with the heavier coils now and buy someones used originals for cheap (it’s a lot easier to get temporary use 550lb springs for cheap than it is to get 750lb springs)

    That’s a good idea on the coils. Yea I was going to get the regearing and suspension done at the same time. Just stock pile parts and limit how many times I take the runner in.
