    How hard would it be? I didn't lift the truck it came like that but I want to ditch the brodozer DB lift and get a proper suspension lift, Wouldn't I have to re-weld the crossmember? I don't have the original so im not sure where to even start... Side note if I took it off who would want to buy it :rolleyes:

    Probably the rewelding is hard unless you have skills and equipment the other stuff should be easy to put back to stock. Someone will buy it for the right price.

    You'll have to get the section of the cross member welded back it. If you look at the front drive shaft you'll see the cut made.

    Other than that you'll have to gather the usual things..shocks, spindles, diff mounts, etc. Really not that back if you know someone with fabrication experience. Everything else it just bolt-on's

    I had a proper lift on my last taco, I just had to get this one because the price, got to pick out the tires brand new myself and got a badass warranty on it, DB lift was the only downside
