Toyota TRD OEM lift kit

Cal the dealer out on that price. Mine did the same thing and I talked to the service manager and asked what they charge for labor he asked why and I explained that I could do that lift in a couple hours in my driveway then get it alligned and install the grill and that any more than 4 hrs is nuts. He reviewed it and it was 2230 out the door which included installing my rim tire set up.

And yes ask them to leave the fogs most will.

As far as using the old grille then your sensor may not be correct as the new grill realigns/aims in to correct the lift.unless that part can be seapped fron the provided grille.

 

When I got mine installed, it cost me $2200 OTD. I also got to keep my fogs because I asked him to, which initially he argued with me but ultimately gave in and left them alone.

Here is a before and after pic of my Tacoma. One is TRD lift kit on stock wheels/tires, and other is with TRD lift kit on TRD Pro Sema wheels wrapped in 275/70/17 Falken WP AT3W's

 

That's my closest dealer as well and what a rip. I'd rather by a Fox setup and install it myself along with the ecgs and forgo the warranty. Shocks, lift block, grill and alignment of this type should be like $2k really.

 

I bought the TRD Pro grill from Empyre with garnish & gray lettering for $181 shipped; have yet to install it.

Reading thru many posts/pages regarding the TSS compatibility…most have said they had no issues…w/o calibration.

It will be interesting when I bring my Sport to dealership after I install the new grill…figuring when they test the TSS, they may have questions. We’ll see.

The whole issue with TSS calibration thing is overblown IMO. I told my dealer this once and they agreed but said it all comes down to liability these days, if an accident happens. I had 32" tires on the truck and they disabled the radar after performing the radar leak TSB, stating it was due to my tire size. I told him they literally make the truck 1/2" higher than stock, which is absolutely irrelevant as I could take a stock truck, put 1,000 lbs in the back and it'd probably sag the rear end 2-3" and yet, that would not "create an issue" with the TSS. Again, it's BS and all about liability, not how well the TSS will operate.

 

If there are no errors after install (the feedback I've seen from YouTube installs), that tells me the TSS works as intended since the range in calibration is within limits...but don't take that as gospel.

Awesome, I'm glad it worked out for you.

 

2 degree tapered shim installed and Vibes completely gone. I spent 30 minutes or so on cruise control at different speeds between 35-55 mph to try and re replicate the slight vibe I had and can’t.

So my vibes fix in total after the 2” front lift (TRD shocks set on top clip) and 1.5” rear (icon AAL) was the ECGS bushing, OME carrier bearing drop and a 2 degree tapered shim pointing forward under the leaf pack.

Good luck to you as well in figuring this out!

 

What size tires did you go with?

 

Glad yours is fixed! Did you install that ECGS bushing yourself or if not, how much did it cost to have it done?

 

thanks! I did it myself. Can’t imagine someone would charge more than 2 hours of labor.

 

Any rubbing with that size wheel & tire?

 

I put TRD Pro wheels with 265/70/17 BFG KO2s on my 2021 Sport and they rub when I turn and go into a driveway or incline. Will an OEM lift kit fix the rubbing?

 

yessir, that’s the exact set up I have, no rubbing whatsoever

 

Alignment would fix it as it did mine. Same wheels and size tires, then the 5100s.

 

I went with 265/70/17 Toyo Open Country 3's.

 

Everything I've seen has said 265/70R17 should fit with no rubbing on stock suspension. Especially with the TRD Pro (4Runner I assume since they are 17") wheels which push them out a bit further even. Very strange if you are having issues with that size tire.

 

Yep, they shouldn't rub at all. I had an '18 SR and now have a '22 SR with the 17" 4Runner Pro Sema wheels with 265/70r17 Wildpeaks and there is no rubbing anywhere, full lock, off-road, etc. I did remove the air dam and have Plasticolor mudflaps, which are almost flat and don't protrude. The air dam and stock rigid plastic flaps on some trims might rub. That's the perk of this tire size. If you get them in SL load rating, they aren't super heavy, barely impact the ride quality/mpg/gearing, can be ran at stock height and look good but also look good with a small 1-2" lift.

I need the get new tires for the '22 and am pretty sure I'll stick with this size again for the reasons above. I was tempted to go up to 33s but combined with a needed lift, don't think the hit to the mpg, gearing and handling are worth it to me. I don't do any hard wheeling since I have a KTM and mountain bikes for getting to those places.

 

None at all. Sema wheels are the besto.. I also have oem mud flaps on and took the air dam off too
