Lifting an X-Runner

My buddy is hellbent on getting an black 05 coma xcab with a hood scoop. He now has the idea of lifting an X-Runner because he cant find the black/hood scoop combo with any other tacoma version. Does this just involve replacing the drop kit with and a lift kit?

 

They exist, they come with the sport package, here is one i have seen on craigslist.

Lifting an X Runner would be dumb IMHO.

Buy a TRD Sport.

 

Whoa lifting a x-runner isn't that against law somewhere?

 

Ya. I have an 06 sport. I have a scooped hood. Lifting an X-runner would be retarded. What would the ground effects look like a foot and a half off the ground? Ya, thats retarded.

 

Your buddy........go smack him.

 

I lifted my X-Runner

Before:




After:

 

Holy crap! That's quite the difference. It looks like a totally different truck......wait a minute.......

 

That is crazy man! you my freind are a pro

 

Why thank you very much.

 

HAHAHAH! Yes! that is the best way to lift an x-runner. Funny ish

 

Yeah. I'm trying to talk some sense to him but hes not hearin me. I said at least consider another dam color. I told him the hood scoop is just cosmetic. But hes not gonna budge. I told him tacomas are super hot right now especially with the buy back so finding that combo of a truck is gonna be even more difficult. Hes bringin his 98 xcab down to the dealership tomorrow to see whats up. Thx for all feedback

 

aahahahahahhahha

 

OK man here you go.

They def. exist. But check this: Scooped hood on Regular Cab - WHOA! Total mindf*ck! How'd he do that?! PFM.

 

An Xrunner is basically a 5 lug 2wd tacoma with cooler shocks and ground effects, right?

Well here's a 2wd 5 lug tacoma that's "lifted." Don't see why it wouldn't work on an xrunner.

5 lug long travel is the JAM.



Doing it on an xrunner would be a waste of money since they cost a lot more than a base 5 lug, but whatever floats your boat I guess....
