    Well, just finished installing my 2" Supreme Suspension Lift Kit and 265/75R16 Toyo Open Country A/T2's. All went well with the exception of the Diff Drop Kit. The Pro Skid Plate wiil not clear the Plate brackets after install. I need spacers and bolts to adapt the Plate back on. I'm in the process of contacting Extreme Terrain where I purchased the kit. I don't know if I really even need the Diff Drop Kit. The truck seems to sit good and ride normal. I like the look.

    Looks very nice! Slight lift and nice tires really helps make these trucks.

    Looks great! I am thinking about putting this same lift on my truck. Did you have to cut off the top of the strut studs so that they didnt stick up above the spacer?

    Looks like you could have fit 285s no problem.

    yeah, could have, but wasn't sure how big I could go. Plus Tacoma wheels are only 16". Wish they were 17" or !8".

    The spacers are resest were the strut studs line up. The new mounting points on top of the spacer are off set for the new mounting bolts. Bolt in the top mount first and than use a long pry bar through the bottom of the shock to twist the shock back into alignment with the bottom mount. It will make sense when you go to mount it. A lot of YouTube help out there.

    I got a sport and got offroad wheels cause I wanted 16s, tire look more meaty and they are a lot cheaper.

    That's really great I was looking for something to give it a little more height without tearing out the stock pro suspension. Thanks for the link!
