Bought used from dealership and trying to figure out modifications

I just bought this truck its my first truck. I know its got 17in wheels and they told me a block lift. But im noticing its riding bumpy now i have it. How do i figure out the type of suspension and lift kit?

 

Take a picture of the front and rear suspension and post it on here, we'll help you out.

 

welcome

stealerships like to overinflate tires, as a staring point

 

You got a Sport, so 17s are the factory size.


If there are blocks in back and since you still have fog lights, there there is likely a 2in or bigger puck / spacer between the top of the front coilover and upper mount. Should be easy to spot. The TRD 2in lift kit has rear blocks but deletes the fogs.


A spacer lift will not necessarily make the ride rough. The Sports do that naturally. On uneven bumps, the sway bar can be very, very harsh. If it is even bumps, then try adding 150lb or so to the bed. The Stock leafs are jittery with no load.

 

Bold recommendation for the newb who can't find their suspension..
Maybe leave the sway bar on until you get used to your first truck.

 

Good call. Will edit.

That said, I was a truck newb when mine went to hide in the crawlspace.

 

OP give us some pics to work with.

 

This is front

 

This is back

 

That's a bold move Cotton... let's see how this plays out.

 

That all looks stock, but I can’t see the places where the spacers would be. We need to see a picture of the top of the front coil overs where they connect to the frame.

Have you tried asking the dealer what you bought?

Trucks ride rough for various reasons. It’s normal.

 

Lookup a spacer/block lift install video on youtube. Take note of where they install the stuff and then look in the same spot on your truck.

 

This will give you some general info on lifts.

What tires and what pressure? That will amaze you on the difference in ride vs the pressure in the tires.

 

how many miles... might just be the shocks are wore out.

 

Almost 52000.

 

They are all around 30 rn

 

Sure looks like a block in the back, and most likely a spacer in front.

OP, we need pics of the leafs taken closer to the axle, and the top of the front coilovers?

Also, LT tires aren't going to help your ride quality.
