    you paid 8k for a shitty suspension at the stealership:eek:. I would rise hell if it was a toyota dealer, but if its one of those “Shady Joes Trucks” shops forget about it, at the end of the day theyre gonna say bah you signed it. Just get a better suspension.

    OP, don’t beat yourself up. People love to make you feel like an idiot on this forum. Yeah, you definitely didn’t get a screaming deal. But, you did get 33 inch tires, nice 17 inch wheels, a lift, nerf bars, a speedometer calibration, and an apparent warranty on the lift. At the very least, they will fix whatever is wrong with your lift. Figure $1000-$1500 for the tires, maybe around $750-$1000 for the wheels, $350-$750 for the spacer lift depending on where you would take it, $300-$400 for the nerf bars, and probably a $200-$300 (?) for the speedometer calibration. That’s between $2600 and $3950 in “stuff”. So, you paid $8000 for somewhere between $2600 to $3950 of add ons in real world cost (what you would have paid without a lot of work to find the absolute best deals possible). And you got the truck you wanted and it probably looks pretty bad ass. And despite what people say on this forum, your truck won’t fall apart because it has a spacer lift. 80% or more of trucks you see on the road probably have a spacer lift. So in reality, you maybe overpaid by somewhere between $4050 and $5400. In this market, that’s really not too bad. Almost no one is paying under MSRP and thousands of people are paying several thousand dollars in “market adjustments” from the dealer. You’re good man. Just have them fix what’s wrong under the warranty. Enjoy your new bad ass fucking truck and don’t think twice about it. It’s worth whatever you were willing to pay for it. Or say fuck it and spend almost nothing to take them them to small claims for shits and gigs. But you have the truck you wanted.
