    So far just raptor lights and viper cut … more coming soon .
    Hey everyone , I just got a 22 Tacoma pro and I’m going to want to lift it up a little bit more to fit 33s . The trd pro suspension is really nice and I don’t want to ruin the ride , is there a spacer lift that I can get a couple inches from without ruining the ride ? Thanks .

    I want to run 33s can I do that with stock ride height with just trimming? I got the viper cut done this weekend but I think I will need a cab mount chop .

    Lifting a vehicle doesn't mean you can put larger tires.

    If you want real clearance...

    Yeah, no one's stopping you from doing that.

    Just pointed out that a lift doesn't mean you can put larger tires.

    Depending on the tire, you should able to run 33s easily. At most you'll need to do a CMC.

    No. And all Tacoma suspension geometry is the same btw. From the sr5 to the Pro. Same ish different hardware. You’ve got a few options. Leave it at the height it is and get tires as large as you can fit with minor cutting. Or get a spacer lift and have the alignment tech push your tires forward with as much castor as it will allow. Or do the lift correctly by getting new coilovers that will allow you to set your ride height where you want, install new upper control arms for more castor and do a cab mount chop to clear the larger tires. That’s about it. Seriously don’t overthink it or you’ll drive yourself mad

    Most will say any spacer kit will ruin the ride. There are a lot of threads about lifts and kits used with a quick search on the search function depending on what you are looking for and google does a good job at finding threads with in the forum as well. Personally I would be hesitant to put a lift on that is more than spacers for the Pro as the FOX shocks are pretty good quality and you will be paying a few grand to do a lift that most on here would recommend which would be a full suspension replacement to achieve the lift (to the same quality of shock you have already)

    Keep in mind you will more than likely need to replace upper control arms as well to prevent any rubbing issues. Good luck in your search.
