3/2 Spacer Level Kit Any Good?

I just bought my ‘23 Tacoma SR 4x4 a few months back and wanted to eliminate the front rake, while adding some height for larger tires. Was thinking of a 3” Front / 2” Back Spacer Leveling Kit, but was concerned about the reliability for my usage.

I use the truck as a daily driver to and from work, and plan to continue off-roading occasionally. (By off-roading, I mean driving through sand, mud, gravel trails, and getting over the occasional bumps or obstacles on the trail here and there.) I don’t do anything extreme, and am not looking to thrash my truck around or rock crawl.

I’ve heard all the horror stories of trucks blowing up and getting snapped in half with spacers. Just wanted some honest opinions.

BTW, the spacer lift is only temporary. Looking to upgrade to some FOX shocks once the money comes around (Probably in a year or so).

Thanks in advance!




EDIT: I don’t literally mean that there have been reports of trucks blowing up and snapping in half from spacers. Just using sarcasm to express how I interpret what I read TW threads related to spacer lifts.

 

yeah

doesn't add up

 

I haven't heard anything about trucks blowing up from their lift. That would be enough to have me say no thanks. But, if someone is okay with that, here is a good reference to get started. Tacoma Lift FAQ/Guide - READ THIS | Tacoma World Alot will come down to budget. I think portals are the answer, however my wallet disagrees.

 

What doesn’t add up? Sorryz

 

IMO. I’d wait and do it all at once. Tries, wheels and lift. If going 3” up front you want to consider Ucas too.
