Help on lift kit!

I currently have a 04 Tacoma extended cab , and it has a 3inch pro comp lift the previous owner put on it . It's not level the front sits lower than the back . I want it level and maybe 2 or 3inches taller . Post pics of your lifts or ideas for my truck . What would make my truck level a leveling kit or would a 3
Inch body lift pick it up even ?





It looks level in that pic but I can ensure u it's off 1-2 inches

 

First post, huh? Well, welcome to TacomaWorld!

I wish I had an option for you, but our modus operandi is quite different. I installed an OME lift on my truck and just finished it last week, so I've got OME parts throughout. The Dakar leaf springs I installed raised my back end higher than my front, and I don't mind it so much really, as I don't really care what the truck looks like - well, that's not true - but I don't care *as much*. Since I'm going to put a bunch of weight in the thing for winter driving in Alaska, I suspect added weight will bring the rear end down. Might that be a possibility for you?

On the other hand, if that's not something you're willing to do, would you be up for raising the front with some new coil springs? If your truck would benefit from new front coils, that's the direction I'd go.

 

Drop bracket lift kit like Fabtech if you want something more then your 3" lift you already have unless you want to add a 3" body lift to your 3" current suspension lift.

 

Put bilstein 5100 with toytec eibach coils on them up front. Gives a full 3 inches of lift. Don't do a body lift, over one inch. After that they're kinda dangerous. Pics of suspension of truck? Idk what kind of lift you have

 

put a couple girls in the back--3 should do it.

 

I changed my mind! ^this^^^

 

Truck looks too nice to be wheeled, just put a 3" BL, you'll be okay.

 

It's got a 3 in h suspension lift , that's a pro comp now

 

Come on folks , I want it level and 2-3 inches higher . What should I do?

 

Drop bracket. 6" lift if you want it leveled and 3" taller then your 3" suspension now.

 

So take off what have a go with a 6inch bracket? Is there any way I can add any type of lift to it now

 

Can't stack lifts with your 3" suspension lift right now. Only thing is add a 3" body lift but I wouldn't do a body lift. People run them and never had a problem and some people have horror stories of 2" and 3" body lift.

 

The only way you'll get 3" more lift with your current set-up will be:

(a) - with a 3" body lift on top of your existing lift.

(b) - take the pro comp lift off and install a 6" drop bracket lift from Fabtech.

Both options are, for the most part, universally disliked on this forum.

 

Right I understand man , I'd have horror I bet cause I'm really really rough on my truck , it's my daily driver . And yeah I figured how much would a 6inch bracket go?

 

I think they run about $2000

 

Personally taller is not always better. With drop bracket kit, if you are 4WD you need to cut the cross member off. Taller = loss in power, loss on MPG cause you want to run larger tires, regearing. Quite frankly, the drop bracket ride sucks cause of the huge rear blocks of Fabtech kit. Cutting the cross member is almost permanent. You have to reweld a new one if you decide to go back to stock or SAS. I would look into Eibach coils with Bilstein 5100's and new Dakars rear leafs or OME 881's with top plate paired with OME Nitros and Dakars myself.

 

Loss of power and miles per gallon is okay , I got a power stroke for that lol I just want my tacoma to look good cause its my daily driver and I'd like to sit above my 35s a good 2 inches or more

 

Go 6" drop bracket lift then. That will give you the look you want. Mall crawler stance.

 

Trust me she's not a pavement queen . She's been balls deep in mud up to the door handle. I'll look into it thanks everyone
