Hey!!!

Im new but lurked a while.

I have a few questions.

1. Whats a good size lift
2. Long travel like the Toyotas
3. I wanna fit 35s maybe 37s. Seen it on instagram looked good

No long travel IFS options besides going SFA.

No 34"+ tires unless you go SFA,33's require 6"+ lift and JBA steel front diff to gear correctly.

Your stuck with 2"-4" and 245/75R16's if your not willing to spend $10,000+ to do it right(key words "do it right") and run 34"+ tires.

I run 32" skinnies 235.85.16 on stock gears. Maybe because they are skinny, I don't really have *major* issues with power, or transmission heat issues. I also do not drive much, recommend you regear to at least 4.10 for 32s if you are DDing it. On the hwy, it hunts gears a bit with OD on when on a slight grade.

Will likely be fine for most trails imho - 4lo has plenty to get you going unless you are hella loaded overland style with your family and dogs too.

I am lifted on OME HD front/rear with front ironman coilover shocks and OME rears. Front also has a 3 conduit clevis lift and JBA spacer plate. Rear also has a total of three isolators. Lift only sits around 22" hub to fender (3" over showroom stock of ~19"). You also need the JBA arms for best droop clearance (stocker hits the spring).
