2009 Taco Lift Options

yeah i think i would go with that just hopefully not to much to install this setup

 

If you get this complete coilover setup, it's VERY easy to install! I don't have much mechanical expertise at all and I installed mine... Took me a few hours, but not hard - especially with all the help from TW! And no specialty tools are needed - just a jack, jackstands, sockets (metric) and a torque wrench...

One thing to be aware of though... install this lift yourself and your gonna get hooked on "wrenching" your truck (as silverback would say)...

 

oh nice so it shouldnt take a shop very long to do this, i dont really have space to do any work on my truck and now that winter is here i need a shop to work in and my garage is filled with stuff my families stuff

 

I would think that experienced mechanics with the proper tools, lifts, etc... Could do it in 2-3 hours (fronts - not rear). But, you're paying a premium for their experience, so they'll probably still charge you $200+ (I would think). You might try to find someone willing to do it after hours or something for cash - that would probably be cheaper. Or, spend $100 on gas and drive to Arizona and let Chris4x4 do it!

But if you get that fully assembled coilover, it's really just as simple as unbolting the factory coil/strut assembly and bolting the new one back on. If you replace the UCAs at the same time, it's even easier to get them in/out, but you gotta add some time to replace them too...

 

i wish it was only 100 dollars worth of gas to get to arizona haha
