    Well yea that’s like asking if a homeless person doesn’t want a dollar. I’m one of those people that would refuse to by a used vehicle that has been modified. Most of my friends wouldn’t touch them either.

    I'd say that's hyper paraniod? But Okay.
    I'd rather buy a modified vehicle done right and taken cared of, rather then a stock vehicle that was poorly maintained! But to each their own?!

    How do you know the work is done right and by who? Do you know the quality of all the small parts used? You just have to go off what they tell you. I’m not a very trusting person. Way too many people get burned by buying modified vehicles. I get you like your truck(looks great), but I wouldn’t buy it used if I was looking just me personally.

    I would think this applies to any used vehicle.

    So Brand New it is!:thumbsup:

    You can buy used vehicles CPO. You’ll find zero used, modified ones with the same designation.

    You won’t even find new vehicles with warranted modifications. It’s a lie. Toyota won’t authorize payments for the work.

    Well that's all good I don't modify my vehicles with the intent of selling them so I try and avoid worrying about those things. Like resale, MPG, wear and tear, etc...
    I had this truck for about 2 mo. I can't wait to see the dealers face when they do my FREE 6 mo. service on my truck for the next 2 yrs.

    I went into it fully aware that if anything broke that was directly caused by the lift then I would have to "pony up" and pay for the repair myself.

    But we are getting off topic.

    I don't think the OP cares about what we like?

    He just wants to know about lifting his ride.

    I’d love to see collection denials on that like dealer denials. They’ll bankrupt themselves honoring every claim for shit installs.

    Yes fox.
    Best advice is look at all the different trucks you can and decide which look you like better?
    When you decide? Then we can help you with options

    Here you are more then likely to run into spacers and blocks than actual suspensions.
