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

talking headstrong, they said most of the feedback from the setup I mentioned was about 2-2.5" which is good enough to run the 255/85/16s I planned on.

 

Had 255/75r17 bfg MTS put on my 17x9 rock stars today! They are a true 32" tire and I have zero rubbing even when flexing. Its sexy to me but I want a small leveling kit. 2-3" cheap. Any ideas? 16 2wd sr5

 

I would not run this set up on 4x4 models. Mine 5100 is set on .85, if you do deside to run 887 with 5100 stay with 0 setting. Also get adjustable UCAs, no adjustable will push your wheels toward cab witch will rub on your cab mounts. For the rear I would get 1.5" AAL and 1/4" leaf plate to correct for driver side lean, same for the front 1/4" lean spacer.

 

What do you mean as far as adjustable uca? Don't they just use cam bolts for the arms as far as adjustment?

 

For top adjustment. You would want to max out caster on lower arms while keeping camber near zero, then adjust top arms to put you in 2.5 degree caster. After that corect lower for camber if need it.

 

Here what u need to know!! Fox is over 2 months behind,so iam told, but the the supplier (Toytech) bills you for the full amount before the parts are shipped!! I ordered a stock kit,not a special order at all. Does anyone else see an issue with a Company taking $3,500.00 for over 3months before parts have been shipped? I do business different i guess.

 

I went through he same deal, ordered my toytec Boss kit end of January and the coilovers arrived this week. got a call from them a few weeks ago letting me know the coilovers would soon be arriving. Guess you need to plan ahead and waiting is part of the process. Got everything I paid for, went in with no issues and now I am happy. But yeah, waiting sucks, especially when you can visualize the finished project and them have to look at the truck in stock form. Sometimes you get tempted to cancel the order and go with something else that you can get right away, maybe not want you really wanted though-so just wait and get the good stuff. I just moved forward with all the other mods I wanted to do and forgot about the back ordered stuff. who needs the anxiety? I would have no trouble paying in advance if ordering from a reputable supplier and Toytec is just that-reputable. did the same with my BAMF grill, so hoping all works out well.

 

Post some pic I'm waiting also on the boss stuff

 

I understand how to align a truck, I'm asking the difference in an adjustable uca and a non-adjustable uca. What's the difference if I had the two control arms side by side?

 

were you guys waiting on BOSS 2.5's or just the BOSS 2.0?

 

BOSS 2.5 for me, really like them so far with 1 day of driving on them.

 

yeah the 2.5's show backorder till early april, the 2.0's should be in stock with no waiting

 

Are you going with longer UCA's with that? I used Light Racing adjustable arms as they were only $399 with my suspension package order. Glad I got them.

 

Hi Michael,

You are correct that Fox is running a bit behind but i have spoken with them a bunch over the past few weeks and they are working diligently to get all caught up!

I also wanted to explain a little more about why we process the orders the method that we do. When the order is placed, you are correct that you do get billed the full amount and i fully understand that dropping that amount of money on something you won't receive for a good chunk of time is a little unnerving. However doing it this way confirms that have a kit assigned to you and that we can ship it ASAP as soon as it comes back in stock. That way there is no delay in waiting to get your payment and no one can jump ahead of you in the line.

Please do let me know if you have any other questions or if i can help you further

Thanks
Dylan

 

SPC adjustable ucas, and black stock non adj, grey non adj, same goes for camburg, TC...etc. adjustment are made on upper ball joint.

 

ahhhh I haven't seen them. I think id feel better on the trail with heims as opposed to a traditional BJ.

 

Has anyone heard or seen if there's an application for the 5100's for the 3rd gen tacomas? I've seen ppl running the ones for 2nd gen but was curious if they are coming out with some for the 3rd gen.
Thanks

 

Thinking about doing the exact same thing...how much did everything run you?

 

I called Bilstein and the guy said they should come out with some in the summer.

 

Just a little over $1200. From Toytec
