My baby!! Lift next?

Just got her 2 weeks ago. So far added predator steps, got them online for 460, super easy install. Also installed from 17’ 4R trd wheels, w/ bfgk02’s w265/70.

Initially WASNT planning a lift because I have no clue where to start that’s affordable. BUT down the rabbit hole I go, also thinking of some 285/70 if I get a lift. Any recommendations under ~1200 for a lift? Looking for 2-3inches thanks

Also, moving to vegas soon. Not adverse to trying to install a lift myself if that means i can get better quality parts instead of installation price.

 

Congrats and welcome!

 

Congrats. Good looking truck from the get go. I am a a little over year in my ownership.
The biggest upgrade i did so far are better AT tires. Which you already did with KO2s.
I dont have a lift yet because i dont have a practical need for one yet other than for the looks. Ill get to it eventually however. I'd say enjoy the truck how it is now so you can fully appreciate the added performance difference with the lift you choose.
When it comes time to do a lift though, dont cheap out on a spacer and block lift. Your ride quality will suffer greatly. Invest in a quality coliover and add a leaf lift like a bilstein lift. probably around $1200 in parts.

White tacomas IMO are the best looking ones out there. have fun

This is one of the best lift kits for the money for a total Coil over upgrade. This is what i will choose. Then of course an add a leaf pack for the rear leaf.

 

Nice, not a fan of raptor lights on a truck that has no need for them, but to each their own, 5100s if you are on a budget (ran them just fine on a few trucks),6112s if you can find them in stock and have more money. Is that aftermarket pro grill gloss finish?

 

They honestly just came with the grille so I installed. Grille is from Tacoma beast, so not OME. But I bought both, apples to apples and returned the original. ~180$ savings for the exact same thing essentially. “Toyota” label comes preinstalled on the Tacoma beast one I bought. Was 239.99

 

Interesting. Any recommendations to give around that price point?

 

Old man emu kit is about 1300

Welcome to TW!

 

Not really apples to apples, the OEM grill does not have a gloss finish, still looks good.

 

Honestly, this is the one i've seen the most in my limited looking, aside from the 3k king setup.

 

This is true, meant more apples to apples in terms of fit, material quality.

 

I gotcha looks good. Always partial to super white have had 3 of them.

 

Thanks man. got a little price gouged. ~1k under MSRP, could've driven 6 hours to save 3k but air force gots me on lock down unfortunately due to covid.

 

I actually wanted a color for a car this time around, coming from a red mustang, blue wrx. So not just new to trucks, but also color. I have to say, i do not like the non-body colored fender flares. Thinking of shopping for some and getting it painted to match.

 

Nice looking truck. I actually like Raptor lights so...yeah.

 

Looking into getting this same lift for mine...2021 OR
