    Not long ago I installed fox 2.0 struts and rear shocks on my 08 Tacoma Base Crew Cab TRD Off road. I'm really happy with the look and feel of the upgrade. The shocks added about 3" to the front and 1.5" to the rear. But now I'm thinking adding another 2" to the front and 1" in the back would make it perfect. I was looking at 2" strut spacers in the front and 1" spacers in the back. Not sure if the complete combination will create any new issues with the rest of the suspension. So far I haven't had to replace the UCA's or any other parts.. Is there anything I need to know?

    Yes you will have major issues, your max lift is 3” , any more than that and you will cuase the shocks to be over extending and joints to extended too far and bushings will tear. Do NOT do it. If you need higher lift do a drop bracket lift but dont plan on any offroading with it at all. Spindle lift if your 2wd .
