What you need to know about lifting a 2016 Tacoma - Presented by Toytec Lifts

Thanks for your feedback: yeah I was considering going for the best with Kings coilovers but saw a lot and met guys running them and the ICONS and MOST off those guys were 90% daily driving and 10% off-road. I didn't want to drop $4000 for something that I would never use to its full potential, I live in Hawaii and we don't have too many places to run far and hard. Not many desert roads at high speed unless your in the big Island or Kauai

 

How does one go about getting 2.5 shocks rebuilt? Is it pricy?

 

I imagine they will be competively priced with the others and wouldnt be suprised if they are priced a little better due not being as established as Icon or king. I bet they'll be just as nice or better though. Anyone know of a time frame on the wait for them?

 

@Lord Humongous Toytec hopes by the end of the month.

 

They are brand new to the Toytec line up so they are still working on the logistics of rebuilds. I would think it would be similar to other manufacturers where you take them into an authorized seller and they are trained to rebuild them.

 

Sweetness! Is that the remote resi version?

 

Non-resi. There isn't a solid ETA on the remote resi model yet.

 

We need @ToyTec Lifts to have a say on this

 

Sorry. I should have noted that I asked them today on the ETA and they told me this. But I am sure they will chime in soon.

 

Question about lifting and larger wheels. Is there a way the dealer can recalibrate your onboard computer to give a more accurate speedo, odo and MPG readings when shifting to a bigger tire?

 

Newbie question here. On the 5100 is the third groove up from the bottom the one for 1.75 inches? Would you think that 1.75 up front and one inch in the back would still give you a slight rake

 

I don't think you're MPG reading will be off. but you're speedo will be. I don't think it'll be off by much, but I'll find out Friday when I get my 285/70r17s on.

 

Here what I did and some pics as well

How do your cv angles look?? And how did the alignment go?

 

Not Sure here are specs

 

Thanks for sharing... I was a little concerned about caster with stock upper control arms. Looks like they couldnt get that in spec. Very nice looking truck though.
