    Question?

    How do you figure that you have that you have more ground clearance than the truck with a 6in lift and 35's? Just wondering how you got them measurements.

    i was looking at 6 inch lifts real hard for awhile but, in order for them not to look bro you have to be real careful about how you pick out your wheels and tires and everything else for that matter imho.

    the guys on here also let me know about the drop bracket and how it really does almost negate the purpose of lifting in the first place due to drop bracket lifts having a lot less ground clearance than a 3 inch lift.

    in the end i went with a 3 inch lift and a 295-70-17 tire and it has a ton of ground clearance compared to that truck

    Do you know if it drops it any farther than stock? and if it does how much lower?

    yea thats what i was thinking.

    How does the three inch lift give it more ground clearance then? does it raise the front differential from where it sits stock?

    Stock clearance is 9.5", so a little bit higher than this taco in question.

    Yes is does the lower control arms hang lower lifting the truck and the diff will sit higher. The 6" just drops everything down keeping the LCA's flat.

    For all the haters that think they know everything about the 6 inch kits that they DON'T have, i have just 11.5 over inches of clearance, therefore, with 35s, one would have approximately 12.5 inches of ground clearance. Thank you.
