3 inch ready lift install with 1 inch spacers

Sweet maybe I'll dial it higher and see how it goes. I guess worst case, ride it and change the UCAs when needed. Thanks!

 

I just bought a 2021 SR5 long bed. I drove F-150's for past 20 years and would like to sit up a little higher (99% street and highway driver). A local 4x4 outfitter quoted me $915 for a 3"/1" SST ReadyLift kit installed. A few dumb questions... 1) does it affect any of the safety features of the Taco?, 2) Does it have any significant effect on the drive (MPG, vibration, etc.)?, and, 3) Is it worth it???

 

i had someone quote me 700.00 for install tire install and alignment all that .. which i thought was a really good price, i just bought a 3f spacer 2 rear block spacer kit by readylift .. hopefully going to install it next week with a coworker.. the more youre on this forum the more money you will spend , but i do seem to get some question answered in here which is good

 

Does it affect safety features no
Does it have significant effect on drive: its all relative. Some have been impacted more than others. My mpgs (lift only no tires or other mods) stayed the same. Vibration: for my application I had some at slow down thought it was my driveline turned out it was my aggressive tires. The truck still drove fine with the lift and tires. Recently I switched to a wheel with zero offset and removed spacer and installed a better (much, much better) tire*General Grabber x3 285 70 17. Basically eliminating the Vibration I had. Do I still have a slight vibe? Yes only slight. Did the carrier bearing drop kit by EMU too.
Is it worth it... only you can answer that. It's personal. It was worth it for me... but I paid much less than the 900$ plus they are quoting you. I also went with 3/2 ready lift and have since removed rear block for an add a leaf with a 1 inch block. The truck rides exactly like it did before the lift. Steering is a little more sensitive. Off Road (if you do any) you should be more cautious as your up and down travel has been altered. I have 44,400 miles my lift and it still drives like new. Recently inspected and driven by Toyota tech he mentioned that she drove great and was surprised due to the Eload tires and extra gear I have ( helps that its a manual with ovtune ).

 

awesome thanks for the information i was hesitant on the lift, but excited about how it will look . what tires were u running on the 3/2 readylift ?

 

Evening,

I did a 3/2 supreme suspension lift with 285/75r16. I wanted to mention wheel offset since I did not see it mentioned, or I missed it. I would go with a 0 to -6 or -12 and skip the spacers. You will have the smallest of rubbing. Mostly mine is backing downhill, wheels fully locked in a turn and hit a bump. Another words backing out of my driveway. I don’t go off-road so have not rubbed anywhere else. If you do go off road, trim plastics for sure.
