3inch lift 07 4cyl

Hey, Ive got an 07 2.7l 4cyl tacoma with an access cab and I’m planning on adding a three inch lift kit with strut spacers to the front and blocks to the rear. Does anyone have some input or tips for me? I’m new to working on my truck and anything helps. Thanks

 

Have you purchased anything yet?
If not hit up marie @HeadStrong Off-Road
If you have already purchased...
Search for videos or threads on the lift you bought?

 

I have not purchased anything yet, I’ll check them out thanks

 

Do I need to change out the stock shocks in the rear if I only add a 2inch block?

 

I would do a full blown suspension lift.

You have a 4 cyl so thats a lot of lift for that truck with spacers and blocks. You will ruin the ride of the truck.

Also the truck is 11 years old. You are almost certainly due for new struts on all 4 corners anyways (should replace every 100k).
You might as well pay for the extra coils and leaf pack and pay virtually the same labor costs as replacing the old struts that need replacing anyways.

Also... understand with a lift on a 4 cyl, you’ll need larger tires. With a lift and new tires you will not be getting to same MPGs as you currently get.

 

Thanks for all the information I’ll define the take that into consideration with my truck, I’m only at about 75k miles though, the guy I bought the truck from only used it for yard work

 

Still struts are old.

Common trying to give you an excuse to get a bad ass lift just go with it!!

Lol
