    Im a rookie to this forum. The dealer i have been working with told me you peeps know more about tacos than dealerships do. I am thinking about upgrading to a 2019 trd off road. I have some questions about some mods.

    1). Im probably going to put a 3” leveler block on the front and 2” on the back. Will this make the truck level?

    2) Im thinking about 275-70-17 tires. Will these fit? Should I try something else? I would like to go with the talles tire i can fit without rubbing and i would also like to be able to chain up the rears to get me out of a pickle. The dealers have no idea why I would ever need chains. They keep telling me its impossible to stick a taco I laugh and say wanna bet.

    3) Im thinking about a fab fours premium winch bumper. Would this mess with the fancy cruise control and blind spot sensors?

    Thanks

    Your dealer is right. In a way. You will get great information here. You will just get too much, and not all of it will be correct.


    My advice is be modest with your lift because you have a great driveline underneath you, take care of it.
