Suspension lift HElP

I drive a 2015 tacoma, 3" front suspension lift achieved with bilstein adjustable shocks and a 3" lift spacer. I love the lift but I want an extra inch on the front, but if I go higher ill damage my shocks and UCAs. since I have a 3" lift, would a 4" spindle lift make my truck 1" higher and preserve my stock UCAs or is that a completely different scenerio? Is there any other suggested options?

 

Is it a prerunner? Spindles are for Prerunners. If so than you could do that but if it is 4x4 you can look at the RCD 4 in option? It also depends on budget and purpose but typically 2.5-3 in is as far you wanna go before changing UCA etc! Others can explain the whole spindle thing. Do you have a 3 in spacer on top of your bilstein?

 

I have a 2wd. Do you know how much a 4" spindle would lift it on top of the 3" lift? And would that require new UCAs? And yes the bilstein a are set to stock high with a 3" spacer

Do y'all know of any other option to get another inch in the front besides a spindle? If I went with a spindle, it looks like id have to take the spacer off my lift and I don't wanna go in circles throwing money in unneeded things. My looked at 4crawler 1" body lifts but no one makes a 1" front bumper lift bracket and I don't want an ugly gap

 

Honestly I don't recommend body lifts. I don't recommend spacer lifts. I recommend bilstein or ome shocks with ome springs and at least a 3 leaf AAL for a good solid 3in lift or the 4 in RCD lift which there is a thread on if you search. You could also make the jump to 6 in lift like a lot of guys do and throw on 35 and rehear but it depends on your budget and function! Adding just one inch is not worth ruining your truck unless it is done right which would probably be what I recommended. Search the forums there is a ton of knowledge and trial and error and good solid advice. I searched for a year before I got my lift and have been very happy with it and the clearance I got!

 

Sounds pretty convincing. You're right I don't want to ruin a brand new truck. Thanks!

 

No worries and let us know what you decide on and how it turns out!
