    Wanted to know if anyone knows much about the place allout offroad.... I was thinking about getting a lift done there they said they used rough country lifts and was going to get either 4 inch or 6 inch... Didn't know if anyone had word on the place if they are good or if rough country was even a good thought on getting. Live around Houston area!

    From what guys have been saying on here, I'd stay away from Rough Country lifts. They are bracket lifts. Most guys on here prefer coilover lifts (usually 3" or under). I'd check into coilovers rather than a bracket lift. That's what I've got and I love it. The brands you'll find are King, Icon, Fox, Camburg, and a few others. Hope this helps a little!

    I have King remote reservoirs all around and Dakar leaf springs in the rear. It was pretty expensive at right around $3k. Another good option is the the Old Man Emu kit. Those run around a grand and they're still really good lifts.

    First you have to deciede if you want a drop bracket lift. Means you have to cut the cross member a little for the front driveshaft.

    Most peeps like the 3" lift and under (no cutting) vs 4"/6" drop brackets

    Eh, it's your choice if you want 3 or 6. Don't listen to these people about how "everyone" is doing 3 inch.

    If you are wanting to do a 4 or 6 inch lift look into rcd , bds, zone or procomp . Rough country I have seen a few people on here have issues with that kit. I would stay away from rough country.

    Procomp, 4 wheel parts did it. First and last time I let someone work on my truck. I just didn't have the time to do it myself.

    The lift is fine, I just got the spacer lift. And later replaced it with custom springs and shocks. Thier quote was for 2 days. They kept my truck for a week, trying to scam me into buying parts that I didn't need or want them to put on. Even tried to get me to buy a sway bar i took off myself lol. They get oem toyota parts from the dealer. But they also tax you for them as well. I got my own parts and dropped it off for them.

    The sales men are about the same as the guys at auto zone. they have no mechanic, or off road skills.
