2008 Tacoma question

I am running 275/65 R18 tires with occasional slight rub if turning and hit a bump. I bought the truck used and have no idea how much lift it has. No body lift at all, any ideas as to how much it is lifted? No blocks in rear but may have leaf back there. I wish I knew what I have. Any input would be appreciated.

 

I'll give this one a shot.....



...Nope, sorry. I'm not getting anything.

 

Pictures would help.. Do you see spacers on front? Or what shocks...

 

It does not have blocks in the rear but does have aftermarket shocks on the rear. It does not have spacers on the front. The tires are about 32 incges tall.

 

It is the truck on my avtar

 

i mean could you take pictures of the shocks, the struts in the front. no one will be able to tell from your avatar.. Post pictures of rear springs..

 

When you write a reply, click on "Upload a File" button lower right, right next to Post Reply Button. it will let you do it from there if the pics are on your hard drive or in photo files.

I'm guessing 5100's in the front set at 2.5" Rear, maybe an add-a-leaf from skyjacker thus the nitro shocks.

 

I agree.. Maybe 5100 in front, aal in rear.. Unless Skyjacker made a adjustable front..

 

So is the 2.5" the most I can get out the 5100's? What should I go to for 4 inch total suspension lift?

 

Yes 5100 set at 2.5 with stock springs is all you can do (because you dont want to stack lifts) to go to 4 inches you are looking at shocks, springs, UCA, new knuckles possibly and New leaf pack in rear Go to the suspension thread and search through there.. there are plenty of different lift options for what you want but it really depends on budget..


Technically you could get 4 inch spacers and set 5100 at 0, get new upper control arms for front and 4 inch blocks in rear.. it will ride like crap but like i said its all about the money.

Just for instance, i have no experience with this kit but just a google search found this..

This kit also requires aftermarket wheels. So your in a lift 1K and wheels and tires at least 1K.. so its all about the $$$$$ you can do....

 

Your credit union or bank to establish a credit line so you can keep up with frequent CV failures and alignments.

 

Thanks to the guys that gave helpful answers. I really appreciate it.
