    Hi guys, I just got a 3rd gen and I need some help with a lift decision. It is stock at the moment.

    I jump the gun and bought a used set of low miles Pro Fox shocks with Westscott lift on it and he also included the leafs with a toytec aal. Now I'm wondering if a should have thought this through some more.... I don't do a lot of ORing. I use my truck to drive all over Florida but there are some okay places to OR.

    Is this susp going to be over kill?

    Should I get the TRD OEM lift instead.

    Anybody driven in both and can give me some input please? Brake dive sucks on this stock setup and would like to tighten up the susp
    On a different post a member suggested I remove the lift and drive it like a pro setup because of needle bearing issues with lifting.

    Thanks in advance for any input.

    I love my fox pro shocks. In my opinion, they are way better than the trd Oem lift. Even if you don’t use them they feel better and are worth it.

    I have the TRD lift shocks and an AAL in the rear myself. Love the ride and look. That being said, I would trade it instantly for that Fox Pro setup you have. Keep it and enjoy!

    Yes, you probably wasted your money. So did like 90% of people on TacomaWorld with all their accessories.

    Sell me the shocks with Westscott lift and I'll actually put it to use.

    Lol!!! Probably as with the many guys I see around FL with Pro's driving around. I will put it to use just not as hardcore as Pro's in other states. I would likely have a good ride on and off road but if I make the decision to sell I will let you know first.
    Thanks man
