    Hello so I am planning on buying a lift kit for my 2013 Tacoma that would achieve about 2.75 inch of lift with billstein 5100s and 2887 coils. In order to avoid buying lr Ucas. I am planning on adding a brush guard to weigh down the front end a little and hopefully lower the lift just enough. Will this work???

    Most all brush guards are not heavy enough to weigh down the front.

    Why not just buy UCAs with the money you'd spend on a brush guard?

    Do the lift ,and see if even need too add weight and go from there.Better to do a 1.75 inch lift (3rd notch) and then get taller tires to get you another 1-2 inches.
