Anyone running this lift? (Toytec front 2 inch spacers and rear blocks)

I would get a top plate spacer instead for the front. You will retain your ride quality. i went 1.5" in the front and 1" in the rear which is only 1/2" lower all around compared to the kit you are looking at. i am running 265/75/16 destination AT's that run bigger than other tires in this size giving me an extra 1/4" of lift. so really we are only talking 1/4" difference all around compared to the kit you linked to.

 

you could get a 2" spacer in front with a 1" lift in the rear and it would be completely level. I wanted the rake for when i have gear in the bed.

 

Thought about going 2 in the front and 1.5 in the rear. Did you do the diff drop?

 

No diff drop and no needle bearing. I went the safest route possible. 1.5 in the rear and you may need longer shocks as they will be fully extended. maybe someone will chime in on this as I am unsure.

 

Hmm. Really? I had not heard that. That is something I should check on. On the toytec sights it recommends the 1.5 in the rear for 2018+ to keep the factory rake for the TSS system.

 

Nope. Same size.

 

Gotcha. I was informed by discount tire it was slightly smaller. (Specifically the wildpeaks)

 

Links to the lift you are using?

 

Here are the parts I purchased.

The front spacer requires you to use a cutoff wheel to cut down the studs on the top of the strut so that they do not poke out.

Is that stud cut for aesthetics or function?

 

Function. when you bolt the spacer to the top of the strut you cannot have the studs stick out past the top of the spacer.

 

Thanks. I was having trouble visualizing that.

 

Hey there! I am interested in this thread as well, in that I have had a 2.25 inch Pro Comp spacer lift installed on my 2018 TRDOR. For full disclosure it did have the front diff drop installed as well as an alignment. I have had 0 issues since the lift was done and have put around 3500 miles on it. The only problem is that it does have a slight "bro" lean (front high) to it. So now I'm considering doing a 1 inch block in the rear to (re) level it out. Looking for suggestions for a good and budget oriented 1 inch kit. Was thinking of Toytec... Does anyone here have any thoughts. Not starting a debate about blocks vs. aal or suspension...Just want to level it out for bigger tires not for hard core off road use.

 

2/1 lift also. Your truck looks perfect bro.
