Need help choosing a lift!

Best affordable lift kit??

 

" Best" to many options. " Affordable" list your needs and wants and what you will do with it.

 

It’s basically just gonna be a mall crawler. Being completely honest ‍♀️

 

Check out Toytec. Plenty of options to suit your needs and surely something to work in your budget I’m sure.

 

Give Marie over at @HeadStrong Off-Road a shout (pm, start a conversation)

 

I'm one of those with all Kings Extended Travel with Resivior's front and rear.

 

People on here will tell you spacer lifts are the devil, but if it's not going to be a hardcore off road rig then it'll be your cheapest option. Have a daystar front and rear spacer lift on my 2016 4runner for 3 years now and no issues with anything I've thrown at it

 

I agree many on here flip out at the mention of spacers and rear blocks, but you are correct if it’s gonna be her mall crawler maybe a dirt road once an awhile why spend thousands when a few hundred bucks will get her what she needs.

 

Can I see a picture??

 

how many inches for the lift? what size tires you want to stuff under there?

 

I want a 3 inch lift and I’m thinking 33s

 

Good luck getting 3" with 33s and a mall crawler ride! Just saying... Suspension and tires ain't that easy.

Ive been researching for months on a lift that fits my needs. And it would be no where near 3"

 

So what do you mean lol help me out

 

I just mean there is a lot to consider for looks if you want to keep it close to a factory ride.

When lifting and fitting large tires a few things to keep in mind- LT 10ply tires will ride harsh. 33" might need to chop & trim, possibly cab mount chop. Using blocks on our weak rear leaf springs can cause more axle wrap. Lifting 3" probably needs front differential needle bearing replacement.

A lot of guys around here refer headstrong offroad. A knowledgeable aftermarket dealer.

Good luck!

 

Doing a 2 inch lift and adding the 33's for the extra inch.... or if you are looking for the 3 plus 1.... go with a maxtrac 4inch spindle lift.

 

Bilstein 5100s all 4 corners set to highest setting, toytec AAL, and Toytec extended length u-bolts in rear. All less than $600. Did the work myself, which saves install cost. Got a much better ride quality. A little stiffer but it soaks up the bumps much better than stock, and body roll is practically non existent anymore. No need that I've seen for aftermarket uca's and I'm running 265/70/17 Cooper discoverer stt Maxx e-rated tires on t4r pro wheels. Alignment is in spec and it tracks straight.

 

Honestly the easiest cheapest quick lift would be small spacers up front & back, both can be purchased from toytec. Then fit a comfortable 32" tire. Fit wheel spacers for a more aggressive look.

Guys around here will say blocks are the devil. But a simple small lift I think is OK!

Front blocks Rear 1/2" spacer

 

LOL is that affordable for his mall trips?

 

Fixed

 

Mall trips will be super cheap now that I have my truck ‍♀️
