    Got a question, is this stock ride height? This is the color and model (mines gonna be a trd or) but other than that identical, wanna put duratracts on it and cant lift it because its a lease truck and wanted to see if it can look good and rugged without a lift and this pic proves it! Awesome truck!

    Mine is a lease as well and I put a lift in mine.. (that pic is stock ride height) whats the big deal about having a lift in it?


    :::UPDATE:::

    Installed my Bilstein 5100 RCD extended length shocks and they are excellent!! I haven't done some good flexing tests yet to see if I need to modify my bumpstops or not, however, tomorrow is Saturday..

    My dad was saying it would violate the contract that goes with leasing a truck? Hes getting the lease through working for toyota at the plant. That would be awesome if i could lift it

    I specifically asked Toyota If I could do modifications to the truck.

    I believe their answer was yes you can, but it won't receive any money for the modifications to the truck when you give it back. Also so long as the modifications don't have a detrimental effect on the value of the truck (my take on this is, if you put a lift in.. and you are worried about it when you give it back.. just take the lift out.)

    I sold my stock rims and asked toyota about it before I sold them and they said.. "we highly doubt that they are going to ding you for not having the stock rims, but if thats the case I'm sure we have some used trd sports you can put on there"

    ALSO, why would you ever give the truck back in the first place, if you have the truck for a year under a lease, check out your lease buyout, its probably lower than market price, and you won't get dinged for buying it out early. Therefore you can get out of your truck early if you want by buying it out and selling it privately and you won't have worry about a damn thing the dealer says because its your truck now anyway.

    Even if you kept your truck full term, (mine is 4 years) I would never give it back to toyota, I believe my buyout is 16,900.. but let me tell you, my truck will be worth more than that in 4 years. I'm definitely buying mine out and selling it to make a profit. When I was in the finance office at Toyota they even told me, we never actually give the lease trucks back to toyota, we just buy them and sell it on their lot because they can make more money that way. So should you.

    I am planning on keeping it after the lease anyway because after the lease ill be outta college for two years so i can do payments, i wanna do a expo build with it and would bumpers be aloud ect, i can see you can take the lift our and return it to stock ect but bumpers might be ok as long as it can be returned to all stock im guessing?

    True true if im keeping it, thanks for the heads up, was there a contract for your lease? and does it cover any damages or stolen things in it and oil changes? thats all on the house for the lease here.
