If you're considering a spring over, then you'll need to raise the front the same amount.... a LOT of work on an IFS rig.

Better to do a complete swap and SAS with Hilux axles.

IMO - not a clever idea, fix the springs, a little body lift and you can fit 33's
under the rear.

An yes, then there's the issue of the front. Fixable - but not easy.

A body lift is the really only other option...
(Unless you talk to MightyMouse..lol... But as he said its a LOT of time and money to rearrange the frontend)

There is heaps of threads on here about body lifts.... do a search.
