    Marie @HeadStrong Off-Road might be able to help but I don't think she's got a loft .... maybe able to point you to a local realtor after suspension help.. but I doubt it.

    People looking for a loft often drive a Prius.... not sure if serious.

    Is the loft for storying hay for hooved animals? Or did you want to live in one ?

    I'd tread easy fellas. Check out his other 1 post.


    If you go under the forums tab there's a Third gen section which is our truck, and a thread in the top section about lifting our trucks. It'll have a symbol next to showing it's sticky meaning it's something worth while ( most times )

    Welcome to the site and good luck with the truck

    Yes? That's what I wrote. His other 1 post. Just pointing out it's not clear troll post.

    Just helping him with his loft @ChadsPride . Haha. If we are going to pick on his spelling I figured I'd help some

    That's a significant change. Any time you ask a question like this you should include the following, at a minimum, if you want the best answers possible.

    How do you use the truck 85% of the time?

    Is this a functional lift for that usage, or a pretty boy lift so you look good for whomever?

    If functional, are you just looking to clear big tires, or achieve actual ground clearance?

    If functional, is this a solution to an actual problem (you've been hung up)? Or are you really just guessing?

    Are you a DIY type, or are you a sub it out type?

    Budget?

    Now then, the easiest solution is to call Marie @HeadStrong Off-Road, describe this Q&A to her, and install what she recommends. Or if her recommendation exceeds your current budget, wait and save more to do it right the first time.
