3rd Gen Lift help needed, for looks only

Hey guys, I’m brand new to this forum, so forgive me if I am asking a dumb or previously covered question, but I couldn’t decipher through all of the thoughts and recommendations regarding lifts and tires.

So my situation/question is as follows:

I have a 2018 TRD Sport 2WD and I’m looking to get enough lift to fit 32-33”x10.5-11” tires under it. I do not do any off-roading whatsoever, other than hauling a light johnboat to a dirt boat ramp.

I’m Strictly just going for looks but I do not want to scrub, compromise safety or cause any damage(to ball joints, tie rods, etc)but I’m really not looking to spend thousands(preferably less than a $1,000, other than tires).

My question is what is my most economical, yet correct way to get this? Or am I trying to fit a square peg into a round hole? Any help is greatly appreciated.

 

2 inch spacers in the front, 1 inch block in the rear.. 33's will most likely require a cab mount chop, hammer pinch welds to keep from rubbing.

Welcome

 

Pick one:
Cheap
No problems

 

Keep it stock. Welcome to TW. Good luck with your truck.

 

255/80/17 (33”x10”) will fit with stock suspension. You could also add a 2” spacer lift in the front and 1” rear block in the rear without causing problems.

 

Thanks guys. Sounds like I can go cheap and do minimal spacers/blocks maybe even get by with 32’s without doing anything, perhaps assuming some light scrubbing. Or I want to do it right, I’d be spending a few more hundees. Or just do nothing and stop trying to be a poser, hehe.

 

My truck had a 3/2 Readylift and 275/70/17's (32's) when new and no rubbing except on mud flaps very close without them. Was actually just under 2.5" front. A little stiff on the ride but not bad.

 

285/75/16 no issues with a 3” front and 2” back

 

No rubbing on the front tire ??? awfully close to the rear of the fender well

Looks good btw !

 

No just the angle of photo. But if I were to go off-road and were too articulate it would definitely rub. It is like a boob job all for looks.

 

Hey no judgement from me, i'm all for a good boob job

 

Since you have a 2wd you could get a 4" lift from the Maxtrac spindles. Since it maintains the geometry there will be no need to run aftermarket uca's.

 

That’s not a 2” or a 3” or whatever you keep posting that it is dude.

 

I lifted mine 1” all around and fit 32’s (275/70/17) just fine. No issues whatsoever. I’ve gone off-road a few times with it and they do just fine.

 

Numbers are hard ok?

 

whats a lift?




ok honestly, i had 3/2 readylift kit before all this madness. and a diff drop kit. that cost me about 350. for that all.

 

I mean, nice truck. Just distasteful mods i would never do.

 

Long beds with a good lift though
