    I was looking for anyone who has some background on the REVTECK 3" Kit. Looking at it through 4 Wheel Parks...part #426A. Good deal? I have a stock 08 TRD Sport, extended cab, 256 65 17. I'm just looking for an easy was to get a little lift and "man" it up. Any know problems with the REVTECK?? Thanks.

    Some stuff. Not a lot, just some.
    Welcome to TW. I would suggest looking at , , or www.downsouthmotorsports.com before I would get anything from 4WP. They have member discounts also and their customer service is second to no one. Second, avoid a spacer lift if at all possible. Go with a Bilstein or OME (Old Man Emu) set-up.

    Thats the biggest you can run stock without rubbing. 3" of lift will give you room for 33"s with the right wheel combo and some minor trimming.

    was told 265 70 17 would work...although I know it won't be much of a difference.

    Thanks for your answers.

    So if I went with OME, is AAL the best bet for the rear?

    The top plate is for a full 3" lift.

    That is the kit i am also running. I purchased the full OME kit from toyteclifts.com, haven't had any issues and I love the way the truck looks now.
