    Asked about getting a lift kit put in on the tacoma when i had it for 5k mile maintenance. Servicer says sure, we do it all the time. Gives me a list of kits to choose from. I pick out the nicest looking one , a revtec, and the advisor says sure, what year is your taco? I say 2018. He backs out immediately, says they wont lift it because of the TSS. Apparently toyota corporate told them recently that no vehicle with TSS may be lifted because of safety system malfunction. Is this bullshit or legit?

    Legal liability.

    Easy to install, and there’s more than a few with TSS on here with lifts.

    I’m lifted with TSS and no issues. I probably would have had some issues if I did a spacer lift but not with TSS.

    I've got a 1.5" lift on my Pro so 2.5" over stock and have 0 issues. My dealer even installs them. May want to try another dealer or 4 wheel parts. LRM_EXPORT_206819986216281_20181229_221251985.jpg
