Toyota Dealership Sold Me a Tacoma w/ Wrong Suspension...

Wait,

You don’t believe a dealer overcharged a customer, the service department screwed something up, or the first post by a new member is something like this?

I have only been here a year and I believe it.

 

Lately it seems like people have signed up for the site to make these types of posts to get a reaction.

I do believe dealers mess up and people over pay. That’s not what I am saying.

 

Better lift and lower my pichad rapidly for me at that price.

 

then what are you saying lol????

 

Trolls going to troll

People just joining to post two or three dumb posts, get everyone riled up, and then disappear forever

 

What’s worse? Throwing a dealer 9k for this lift. Or 9k to some overland company you see on Instagram or some other social media platform for all this custom built crap and you never get any of it. People here make it real hard to feel sorry for them

 

Are you describing me? I got factory lockers for mall wheel drive capabilities too.

 

No, it is me.

 

Yes!

 

What did they do with the original suspension?

 

The dealer got back to me... They will be installing Fox 2.0 Performance IFP kit, they'll also be replacing my Four Wildpeaks w/ new ones because of the excessive feathering.

 

No response on why you paid 9k for this in the first place???

 

I’d still sue for mental anguish

 

Stuff is not adding up here. AFAIK a Fox 2.0 IFP shock is a universal fit shock that may or may fit on your truck. Also they only cost $180. I hope they are giving you a better price than $9.

EDIT: nevermind about the universal fit issue. I checked a different site and they listed multiple part numbers and extended and collapsed lengths compatible with a Tacoma oem replacement shock. The price is still way off though.

 

Y’all should feel stupid for repeating the same insult and befuddlement as the last blokes…

 

I’m just mad because I spent 10k on this setup.

 

That sucks op. Would love to know what parts failed/were installed wrong/not compatible?

Glad the dealership is making it right.

Had you taken it off road much?

 

I have a 21 MGM double cab long bed sport with the Toyota lift kit. Check my profile out I post pics of it when it was done. I’m running 275/70/17 KO2 tires. Anyway i paid less than 3k for the lift (installed at the dealership) and I over paid. I have had absolutely no problems with the lift kit. If you checkout the part list of what is included in the OEM kit it’s literally things you can buy a la carte and install yourself for a fraction of the price.

anyway I’ve been running this setup for about 15k miles. Absolutely no problems. I’ve taken this truck up some gnarly trails, gone through 2 tires. And have a roof top tent with a rack on it now. No rubbing. No grinding. Nothing wrong with the lift at all aside from it being over priced at 3k.

if you got this lift and paid 9k for it the issue is with the instal *and the price.

sorry for the typos sent this while waking to work.

 

can u give me some money

 

I too would like some money. Thanks!
