    Ok, I've spent the better half of the day looking for a 3 inch lift kit, half the kits say 2005-2017. Other half say 2016+. So I'm confused. All I want is a 3inch lift from Pro Comp, but their website says that their lift does not fit on my truck although I've seen people on here with 3 inch procomp lifts on their 2016-2017 tacoma. Anyone know??? If so Can someone link me to the correct kit... It's been driving me insane :confused::mad::confused:

    What's wrong with Pro comp? I had it on my 2015, comes with a warranty, never caused any issues. Did you have experience with Pro Comp?

    Nothing wrong with pro comp. Ive used a few shocks and an AAL on my 2001 years ago. Harsh ride till I could afford something better.
    I mean if you are just wanting a lift for the streets, I would say ok. As far as an entire lift...they are kinda on the lower end of the spectrum
    for ride quality/durabilty in the off road community.

    There is a lifted 3rd gen thread somewhere. Lots of people with some decent lifts in there.

    Ofcourse...technology has changed. We are talking 15 yrs and pro comp is still running strong.
    They provide a lift that is based on an individuals needs/ budget.
    You have a 2017 4x4. look for your best options per your budget. Good luck and welcome to the forums.

    Yes. Although, some people have been less than satisfied with the OME shocks.

    The OME coils paired with Bilstein shocks have been a popular choice as of late.
