have you thought about shaving your diff? i havent had any experience on this, but, in theory, if you cut out an inch off the bottom of your diff, you will be getting the same benefits as running a 2" bigger tyre than what you have. i.e every 2 inches you go bigger on your tyres, you only gain an ...

if it is the 7afe check up to see if its the same bolt pattern for the rear to the gearbox, if it is you can also run a 3sp auto. just another thought you may be interested in.

you have lifted your springs so now the distance between your two shock mounting points is further away.... buy longer shocks... that way you will get even more flex seeing you have the room to go more before bumping out.
