As for 3.5 lift...that is based on a stock vehicle, no added weight of bumpers, racks, larger spare, camping gear, extra equipment, etc.
Alcans are generally a soft spring and it will settle alittle, especially since your rig has more weight than the avg tacoma. Id be willing to bet you could pull a spring off that pack, and with bj spacers in the front and tbars cranked just alittle you could net a nice ~ 2.5 lift.
Stop it!:exclaim: You are making me consider it!
The only problem I see in your suggestion is the tbar crank... this really limits your downtravel. I'm not terribly concenred with downtravel in an expedition platform vehicle but I prefer to keep my suspension versatile. Granted, I will be cranking the tbars a little to level the truck out once I install the HD tbars. The TJM and winch kind of weighed down my front end.
