Bought a Ready lift.

I say fuck it,

 

Can you cancel the order, I'm assuming you can wiggle out of it somehow.

 

Why all the hate?
I used a spacer kit while I was adding parts to my build, and deciding what coilovers I would install later.
And I also know a lot of you did spacers as well, so why you gotta slam the OP over it?
Be nice if people would try and help people instead of making them feel bad/stupid.
I also had the dealer install and align the truck, now any lift related issues will be covered under warranty!
I have since upgraded to Fox coilovers, and keep my warranty intact!

 

I guess I'll find out for myself if I hate it or not...

 

Thanks for the input, although some of it harsh.

 

It's a suspension lift that uses a spacer to lift the truck. Not a very good idea. 5100's or 887's would be way better

 

they can be dicks haha. im sure youll be fine bud. don't let it keep you away from the site though. there are extremely helpful and fun parts to being a part of TW.

 

Oh I'm not leaving! Lol I can't stay away from the forum..

 

Glad we didn't scare you away. Most of us have been where you are and we are just trying to guide you to not make the same mistakes we did.

Good man! We're a bunch of dicks, but useful dicks!

 

I know I effed up somewhere...

 

The better question is how much is the dealership selling it to you for? Their 2/3 "kit" is about $375 online. If it is the Ready lift SST "kit" all it is is spacers in front and blocks in the rear. While it does lift the rear 3" - you mention that they told you that it will help level out with the weight of your topper. This is false, since you're not changing/improving your spring loading to handle the extra weight, all they're doing is dropping the axle 3" and then letting the springs sag with the weight to end up near level. You're basically reducing travel, and probably not doing those springs any favors in the long run.

 

$325 for the kit and with it installed and aligned it $700 total

 

For that kind of money, you can have a real lift

 

Not too bad then. Did you ask them how this kit will affect any future toyota warranty work on the truck, say if balljoints, u joints, carrier bearings, leaf springs, start giving you trouble? Might be something nice to have in writing for down the road, cause the guy that sold it to you now, may not be there (or be conveniently forgetful) 8 months down the road.
