    Bring it back down to stockish height. The smaller tire became an eye sore and it is now bugging me out.

    Spiker Engineering hood struts give you the option of higher than stock opening position. And free shipping through end of October :).

    Those look nice, but by going higher wouldn't the ditch lights bind up if a person has them installed on there truck

    These kits let you choose any height above stock, up to 8" higher. If you have ditch lights, you can set the height to just below the height at which they hit. Another forum member with ditch lights set his hood at 33", which is 3" above stock:

    I see the one review on the site. Is there anyone on TW that has used these? How do they compare to the Redline struts?

    True, but getting reviews from folks is like pulling teeth, and I don't offer the "money back for your review" gig.

    The 2nd Gen Taco kits are a fairly recent addition to the lineup, but they are a continuation of our premium quality, 100% USA made high lift kits, that have sold hundreds for 1st Gen Tacos and 3rd Gen 4Runners. You can see the reviews for the 4Runner on the website.

    Here is some discussion on the 1st Gen Taco kits:

    Hope this helps :thumbsup:

    Did I mention that Spiker offers 100% money back satisfaction guarantee? Where else are you going to find someone with that kind of confidence in their products?

    I say go for it, and post a review afterwards :spending:

    Well I do like that they are 100% American made! I’m watching the President’s speech in Dallas and he reminded me “ Buy American”
