    Hey everyone, I installed a 3inch rough country suspension lift kit. Link to the lift kit below. Alongside this, I installed 33's. Everything went great and it drove great yesterday and most of the day today. Until I was in a parking lot stopped and when I tried to go forward my truck wouldn't. The Tacoma started to make a horrible noise from the back end and wouldn't budge. When I put it in reverse it would move but not forward. It wasn't until I moved it into 4 wheel drive and finally it was able to go forward. At this point, I put it back in 2 wheel drive, and no issue since. Any idea of what the issue could be? I live in Utah and the truck has not gotten moisture in a long time and is brand new with only 1000 miles.

    Did you apply the Parking Brake at anytime?
    Have you inspected the Parking Brake Cable(s)?

    Some lifts require you to relocate the cable. Other wise it can get stretched.

    sometimes the brake lines will get stretched. either get longer brake lines or relocate them

    @TnShooter I never thought about that. I will be getting it on a lift come Tuesday and will take a look. Thanks for the recommendation!
