Yea you get what you pay for when you buy cheap

 

I hear there shocks are pretty good

 

So maybe its just their 3" spacer lift kits that arent so good?

 

If you plan to go off-road I'd stay away from a spacer lift and go.with a coilover

 

But if your building a mall crawler then go right ahead with spacer lift

 

I am, I got 5100s all around, OME 888's and a 1.5-2" AAL. Its just that when shopping around I saw comments like "Tuff country should come with a sticker that says 'Im poor'"

 

You can get Bilstien 5100 front and rear new on eBay for 330 you can get ome springs for 150 assemble them yourself and get up to a 2.5" lift upfront

 

If you plan to drive work and home and not hit any trails then a spacer lift works fine

 

Im building a "dont need it, dont use, but it feels good to have there" truck.

 

A stock truck is suppossed to get 3" with the 888s I got, but I have that SOS slim bumper that will probably bring it down a bit.

 

I'm doing Bilstien 6112 and 5160 I'm.just in no hurry working on other things first

 

You don't need a high lift just enough to clear your tires 2.5 Is enough

 

I already bought everything...but the UCAs.

 

All them.guys in Jeep's with 6" lift is overkill

 

Save your money get spc for 549 good uca

 

Watch the post for discount codes on wheelers or any the major distributors they have 10 or 15% off every once in a while

 

Most of the time if you say your on tacomaworld fourms they will give you a little discount

 

I personally wouldn't try to cheap out on UCAs. They are a load-bearing component of the front suspension, so if you cheap out and there is a component failure somewhere, it is going to be a very serious issue that will likely tear other things up. Buy once and cry once imo

 

What he said

 

Depends. With a good long arm lift and that solid able out front you can comfortably run 37's with a regear. 37's get you great ground clearance and they glide right over rocks and holes that easily swallow 33's.
