    --Stock 2016. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2011 had 6 inch ProComp lift, Eibach coils on 5100 Bilsteins at zero, 1/4 inch Toytec spacer on drivers side, rear TSB, 1.5 inch Deaver AAL, ProComp blocks and rear shocks, 8000 lb Warn winch on a Trans4mer grill guard, 33 inch BFG AT's, 18x9 XD Monsters, PIAA headlights, PIAA driving lights, Pyro's blue LED gauges, LED strip below tailgate, Armor Lid hard tonno, Hidden Hitch, Dee Zee bed mat, Tint, XM, Garmin GPS, Ultra Gauge
    You could set your 5100's at .85 and install Eibach coils on them for a nice riding 2.5 inches of lift. You can also add a small Toytec top plate spacer for 3 inches of lift.

    Do you have 245's now? I think you can fit a bigger tire than a 265 on there.

    I have an ARB bumper with the 3" lift and it rides perfectly fine the bumper does weight it the front down a little so it rubs when taking tight turns

    So I just found this post I'm thinking about getting the procomp 3" kit for my 2011 double cab and maybe adding LR UCAs and a diff drop why are your opinions? And for those who have your lift do you like it or not reasons why?

    I love my 2.5" lift, yes I would like a really suspension lift, but it is what it is. I have no rubbing issues or vibes. Its a easy straight-forward kit to install and will fit 33's no problem.

    So after reading this post I think I will be pulling the trigger on the procomp kit this week. Does this kit come with new u bolts or do I need to order them separate I think I'm also getting LR UCAs to help with alignment. I hear mixed thoughts on diff drop any input? Also do I need carrier bearing drop? What about extended brake lines? Thanks guys!

    It's only 3 inches you shouldn't need any of that except new u bolts

    New UCA'S wouldn't hurt. My alignment is a bit off honestly. I'll be getting LR UCA'S in the near future. I can see the tire wear is off just a tad. Nothing too crazy, but noticeable. everything else, don't worry about. Take the sway bar off, air down a bit in the rear, and your good to go. I actually had compliments on the ride this weekend from another member. Saying mine was so much more quiet and smooth than his lifted taco. He's not the first to say that too. Good luck. Enjoy

    That's weird because friends who have rode in my truck (especially other members) say it rides pretty smooth and quiet. Remove the sway bar, and air down a bit (in the rear cuz of the empty bed) and your good. Of course its no luxury car, but its not a brick with square wheels either.

    What PSI you run in front and rear?? I might take the sawy bar off but my main problem is steering wheel shake at 40 mph plus. Shakes one min then goes away. Going to check wheel bearings one day soon just don't have time. Its not bad balancing been through all that already.

    Alignment?

    I have zero issues with balancing and vibrations.. so maybe once you get that figured out you'll like it more.

    Front is around 33 psi, rear is around 30. Removing the Sway bar helps a lot.
