TRD Pro & TX Baja OFFICIAL Thread...

No.....the front comes stock at 1.75” in front....and no lift in the rear

edit.....+1 just meant add another person that agrees to what was said on that post.

 

Gotcha, the +1 was that you agreed. That's why I asked.

I am wanting about another inch of lift and need to know what I'm starting with. To level the truck a few months ago I had the rear springs re-arched and an add a leaf installed at Deaver Spring in Santa Ana. Like the way it looks now, all leveled off and not bottoming out all the time.

 

You can do what I did then......you can add a 1/4” top plate to the coil over and it will yield you 1/2” or you can do a 1/2” top plate and that will get you 1” higher or so. I’ve done both. It’s safe. If you do go the second route, you’ll need longer studs for the top of the coil over. For the rear, I’d do a progressive add a leaf from icon or wheelers. Or just do a complete new icon rxt spring pack. .......I’ve done both of those as well.

 

Thanks for the info. I was looking at the spacers and wondering if they would work for what I want considering it isn't much of a lift over the stock height for us.

 

Go to toytec.com they have everything you’ll need.

 

Is this web site? It doesn't look correct.

 

Whoops.....

 

Perfect, looking at it now.

Did you have an issue with brake line length?

 

If you go up to 3”, you should then get extended lines. Especially if you are gonna wheel it

 

OK, the only spacer for my truck is a 1". It would be 2.75 so I will look at brake lines as well. Sucks because I just upgraded my brakes and replaced the lines at the same time.

 

There is a spring seat spacer that is only specific to our bajas and pros. It is a 1” lift. That may be what you are looking at. That is also a great option. You’ll have to take the springs off to change the spring seat. What I explained before were simple top plate spacers that go on top of the coilover.

 

Had too much fun yesterday!

 

Had the 1” Toytec Spring Seat Spacer put on, new OEM LCA’s with cam bolts, Marlin Crawler LCA braces welded, Wheeler’s brake lines up front, brake fluid and power steering flushed, bearings/hubs replaced. Then the rain poured non-stop on the drive home so these are the only pics from when I picked it up from the shop:

 

Nice. Why new oem lca’s? What did you have before

 

OEM. My passenger cam bolts were seized which didn’t hold alignment, then the genius that I am still went playing on dirt and kinda muddy fields which bent my cam tabs. The mechanic that does my alignments noticed my LCA bushing was starting to go too, and I think the wobbly movement wore out that bearing quicker so I just had both sides replaced. My ignorance for the past few months made one thing leading to another lol

 

Dam......this would’ve been perfect for you to get into the group buy for dirt kings ......I just ordered mine earlier today

 

Oh I know, I was part of the discussion in that thread lol. Since I am planning on keeping the Baja Bilstein’s, I didn’t want to worry about over-extension and then running limit straps. I figured I’d be defeating the purpose of going with a higher articulation LCA then running limit straps to prevent that extra travel. Had I still been on my Icon extended travel coilovers, I would have gone with DK’s. I had a lot of thinking to do during quarantine lol

 

Nice! Got any side pics? You're probably pretty close to level?
I'm finally getting caught up on my TW threads. My life has been pretty shitty these last few weeks.

 

Sorry to hear that brother, you all right?
