Don’t hate me!

I know there is a 1,000 posts on lifts.... Let me start off with I don’t go off roading. I am looking for a lift on my 2017 TRD sport. My dealer installs rough country 3/2 and a local shop installs ready lift 3/2 lift. There’s about a $200 difference between the two. Anyone have any real reviews on either? Not the keyboard cowboys!

 

Keyboard cowboys...that's priceless

 

There are 1,000 posts... Did you read any of them??

 

I’m a naughty cowboy so dirty


I put on my wizard cape and cowboy hat...

 

Cliff notes for the 1000 posts on this topic already,


Anything less than Icon stage 9 is garbage and not worthy of your Tacoma, Period.

 

I had ready lift 3/2 and I personally didn’t like the ride (harsh) . I’d save an get 5100’s or something similar which is suggested in the other 1000 posts.

 

Oh no, I'm sure there's more than that. There's probably been 1,000 made since Jan 1 of this year.

 

Dude, it is Friday! We hate you already for harshing our mellow.

You are gonna have to be a serious firefighter to fight the fire that is coming your way!











...welcome to TW, BTW!

 

Agreed!

 

Icon is garbage though...

 

If you read those 1000+ posts on this exact subject, you'll learn that the 3/2 lifts are perfectly fine if all you care about is how your truck looks. You'll also see most people talk about how much they hate the harshness of the block lifts, and how it's always a better idea to save up money for 5100's instead.

At the end of the day, the people saying those things will be correct all 1000+ times.

With lifts, you generally get what you pay for -- with the exception of huge dealership premiums for garbage parts.

Take your time, do it right, or you will quite possibly hate the results. Hell, you might even hate driving your truck.

 

This guy didn't off road either, you wanna be able to stick the landing just in case, right???
This guy had a 3/2 rough country lift.... and a rough landing.

It’ll buff out...

 

Just trade it for a Pro

I don't have experience with this one but I've heard good things about it.

Back on topic. They will both suck. So, logically, do the cheapest one and save that $200 for when you have to do it over.

The ready lift looks to cost about $360 for parts online. How much are your two sources charging for labor?

 

$800 total for Rough Country from my Toyota dealer and the local shop $1000 for Ready lift.

 

Keyboard Cowboys? Whatya talkin bout Captain?
