    Fellas,
    I'm considering buying a 2008 Double Cab Long Bed TRD Sport that is lifted with a Revtek 3" Lift and an ADD-A-Leaf in the rear. My question is how will the lift affect the off-road capabilities of the Tacoma? I don't do any hard core wheeling but I do live in Colorado and am frequently negotiating some steep, fairly rocky terrain. Will the Revtek lift be quality enough for moderate off-roading? Thanks for any opinion you can give me. I'm brand new to this stuff and a little overwhelmed trying to figure out if this is the right truck for me. Doug Dillingham Ohio City, Colorado.

    No one has a Revtek lift and does some off-roading?

    I don't have any experience with this lift, but if it were me...and most on here will tell you the same...I'd stay away from any kind of spacer lift. Get some 5100's...you will be much happier with the travel and the ride! Either way though, good luck!
