Amount of lift on my tacoma

they are yellow and it actually says Bilstein and toyota on them

 

Looks like stock struts and springs with a 2 1/2"-3" spacer lift.

 

If they say toyota then I believe they are stock struts. Like @SixthSnail said you probably have a spacer lift.

 

Okay those are stock shocks so it looks like you have a spacer lift. I could be wrong.

Normally they are anywhere between 1.5-3"

 

so whats the difference between a spacer lift and a suspension lift?

 

would it be worth putting a suspension lift on it ? wanted to go with wider tires but afraid the tires are going to rub too bad.

 

Spacer lift uses stock suspension and simply adds a block to give it height where a real suspension lift uses the springs to provide lift.

 

but the height is the same? and is the spacer lifts good quality for off-road?

 

Spacer lifts are generally bad quality for off road.

 

so would be worth getting a suspension lift then? what lift would i need to fit 33x12.5x16 tires?

 

I'm sorry if I'm asking too many questions!!!

 

Depends on what you want to use the truck for. If you are planning on doing a lot of off roading, then I would. You'll need between 2.5-3" of lift up front to fit 33" tires. Even then you may want to cut your cab mount to avoid rubbing.

Don't worry about it. I'll help where I can.

 

Man, Oh the kindness from Tacomaworld is just so wonderful

 

well i have 33s on it right now but wanted them a little wider. and you lost me when you started talking about cutting things lol

I appreciate your help!

 

yes I'm so glad i joined this site!! y'all are all so nice and helpful!!!

 

Yeah these guys are always so nice and plesent. Good luck with your lift.

 

Unless you have wheel spacers you may want to consider wheels with less offset which will give your wheels / tires a wider and more aggressive looking stance.

 

Thank you!!!

 

ok! how do you know if you have wheel spacers or not?

 

just let me know when you're tired of answering questions haha
