My 2017 Limited Build-Boss Lift-White- and my 2 Cents

Clearing up misinformation for the benefit of others. Nothing circular about it.

 

18 mpg on E rated st Maxx tires

 

Nice ride! I like seeing limiteds go aggro.

 

Thank you sir.

 

yeah dude for sure! having install done friday! can't wait. i'll post pics soon as i can. i meant to ask if you were running stock UCAs?

 

..I'm running stock..

 

Wisconsin law to have a front plate, that being said, I really wish I had remembered to tell them to Not put it on.

 

Couldn't stand it and had to throw the wheels on today and see what they looked like. Not a very good pic. Will get some better ones once the lift is on. Getting lift tomorrow and definitely need it cuz they rub pretty bad up front. I look like Austin Powers trying to make a 300 point turn. haha

 

@Nolie3830 Ya, it needs a lift.

 

Finally got everything installed. Love the look. Super happy with the way it turned out. You were absolutely right @thetacorocker it completely changed the truck. Thanks for all the help and inspiration man!

 

Just in case.

11k Miles. Slight vibration at 35 mph. Needle bearing. TSB 0026-15 replaced needle bearing. Vibration is gone. Everything else is good.

 

Update: Vibration was still there or came back. I took it back to the dealer, they had it for quite a while and I was skeptical that they could fix it, but they did. Here is what they did: Installed new rear leaf springs with proper shims to bring the rear axle drive angle into spec, also installed steering wheel damper. Vibration is gone

With that lift can you fit 275/65/18?
Everyone's telling me not to go 18 but it's like it's only 1/2" more all the way around. No big deal and I think looks better.
But I see that my tire would be slightly taller but yours are thicker, so wondering if those would work

 

Hey man really like your build spec truck looks awesome!

Quick question, where did you find the smittybuilt step bars for the 3rd gen Tacoma?

 

This is exactly what I am looking to do to my truck! That looks awesome! Any idea if this setup would work with the stock wheels? (I’m a noob and don’t know the offset of my stock limited 18” wheels) I see yours are -12 and really like that look, might end up having to copy if the stock 18” limited wheels don’t work. Just to clarify, the toytec boss kit seems to have a lot of options, can you repost your final lift kit setup after the rear changes you made, so I get it right the first time?

 

Super nice Truck! This is exactly what I want to do with mine!! Wonder If it would be possible to post a pic of the truck from behind? Thanks! Again, Nice Truck!

 

Looks great!
