I am looking for opinions. Here is where I am at now.

I am sprung under and plan to stay that way for the near future. I have 4" springs in the rear with 2.5" extended shackles = 5.25 " of lift. In the front I have 2.5" springs, shackle reversal=1.5" and .5" extended shackles giving me 4.25" of lift. The FJ40 sits nice now. I run 35" tires and have the body off the frame currently. My question is: Should I put a 1" body lift on while I have the body off of the frame? If I do the 1" body lift is there any modifications that I will have to do regarding steering column etc.

Thanks for your input,
Greg

What you have is perfect for 35's...no need for a body lift.

If you have stock sttering a 1" body lift is not problem.

When I was going to install mine with the 2F engine the steering rod would have contacted the PS pump where I had it mounted.

I second that emotion, it sounds like what you have is in the zone.
