New Taco Owner, 21 X series offroad looking for 3" lift kit / issues?

I contacted Rough Country (RC) and they indicated that the X Series has some special OEM mods to the control arms etc., and that their kits will not work with the X series trucks. Does anyone understand the X series MODS they are referring to and what the limitations are? Is there a good turn key 3" lift kit available for the X series, or should I piece it together myself?

Goals:
- Overlanding
- Forest trails
- High desert
- I don't want to destroy my taco
- Family oriented fun
- Keep reliability

 

The XP package is just an appearance. So any regular lift that fits 3rd Gen tacomas will work.

 

Many thanks

 

You don’t want anyone destroying your taco?

that’s what she said!

 

welcome aboard

why not drive it a while, before you go messing with it.

 

you don't need a new lift to accomplish your goals. Just slap an AAL in the back to handle the extra weight of overlanding gear and be happy you didn't waste a ton of money.

I've done insane trails on stock height, you'd be surprised what the truck can do if you air down and drive it well.

If you really need a lift (I did, no judgement) go with a setup from Accutune.
