1" lift on 97 Tacoma

Can someone tell me what size of bolts I'm going to need for a 1" body lift?

 

Bolts that are 1" longer I'd imagine

 

The factory length would be great, thanks

 

Body lift kits usually come with new bolts.

 

help me out here? what is the point of doing a lift of only a 1" lift ?????????? I don't see the point of all that work just for 1". just curious

 

This is actually his wife and I unlike other wives I know try and help him out as much as I can. SOOO he has been trying to find out and he is being answered with smart ass comments so I was just trying to help him! Do YOU know the answer to my question?

 

He actually did a 3' lift but the front end seems to be 1" lower than the front I believe so he needs to bring the front up 1" or take a leaf out of the ass end.

 

If you're gunna do a body lift u shouldn't do it in the front and not in the rear..it'll lift the cab and not the bed, you could I guess, but it would look weirder than having a rake in the rear...a one inch rake in the back is ideal anyway, specially when carrying a load, it'll level out.

 

oh ok, now I understand what it is he is trying to do.

if that is the goal then adding a spacer on the front struts should be the easiest way to level it out. look at leveling kits rather then body spacers, I think that is the best solution.

now the stock rake is 2" higher in the rear even though it only "looks" like 1" so if your trying to level the truck out you would be looking for a 2" front lift to level it so if you went 3" in the rear then a 5" front lift would be needed to level it. is this a complete kit he bought, because often the kits will tell you all this stuff but not always

 

what lift is on the truck? adding a body lift wont fix rake.

 

Thank you keakar I will show this message to him as soon as he is off.

 

Even though there is a typo on her post I believe she wants to get rid of the rear rake by not lifting the front suspension more since there is already a 3" lift on the truck, thus asking about a body lift...

OP don't go more than 3 inches in the front of suspension lift, it will create extreme cv angles and you'll develope problems! (Unless it's a drop bracket lift, but that's unlikely since I'm fairly sure the smallest DB lift is 4")
