    3"/1" Lowrange off-road leveling lift kit (more to come!)
    I have just recently out a 3"/1" leveling lift kit on my truck and I want just one more inch or two and I was wondering is there a way to do that, while leaving my leveling kit still on it ( this is the first Tacoma I have done myself ) any suggestions? And does anyone know who makes the best wheel spacers (I wanted spidertrax but they don't go up to 2 inches)?

    Thanks Christian

    You could do a body lift and keep your leveling kit. But any higher will need a crossmember drop if you have 4x4 and want to lift it using the suspension. If you really want wheel spacers I would say save your money and get wheels with the offset you want. I have wheel spacers on my truck and the price of the wheel spacers could of bought me one of the new wheels with the offset I wanted. If you want your stock wheels I personally wouldn't go any bigger then 1.25 inch wheel spacers.

    What size tires are you running right now? If you aren't maxed out already with the new lift without rubbing then I'd up the tire size.

    Ya I'd say that's max with your suspension setup. The only other option would be a body lift like @stlntaco already mentioned.

    Most guys on this forum will tell you to avoid a body lift like the plague though.

    I want to see the OP bolt a pro comp 6 Inch lift spacer to the top of his already lifted coilovers then stack body lifts. He should be around 15 of lift by the end. Or buy a 6 inch lift performance fabtech lift and then put a spacer on the already lifted coilovers then stack body lifts. Then he could be at 18 inches of lift.

    Because if you get in an accident your cab may or not fly off the frame, your lifting the vehicle off of the frame, and your putting a 100 dollar plastic spacer kit on a 30,000k+ truck.

    If you're going to lift it any higher it sounds like you need to rethink the whole lift instead of adding a body lift unless it's just going to be a pavement princess.

    And I didn't have to ask a question about lifting my truck did I? It's pretty basic. If you want to keep your leveling kit and not be a bone head stacking spacers then a body lift is he only way to go. Which can be 1 inch.
