Westcott Designs Lift kit

Question: How much did Wescott charge for the install? Tying to get an idea on price

thinking $300-$400??

 

I looked back at my receipt and it was $400 to install the collar and the shims, but that also included installing some coachbuilder shackles as well. They lumped it altogether at $100/hr at 4 hours. Alignment was $119. I believe their hourly rate has increased since my install which was back in February 2020. I had them install my sliders last month and I believe they were at $140/hr.

 

I see you’re on TRD pro coilovers. What’s your total lifted height after collars? And tire size?

 

I can measure the hub to fender if that would be helpful. I should be in the ballpark of +3.5" in the front (2" from the coilovers, 1" from coachbuilder shims, and 0.5" form the collar). I'm running the Cooper Discoverer AT3 XLT's in 295/70/18. Also using some Camburg UCA's.

 

No need to measure. I wasn't sure what the front end components added to the 2" Pro lift. Does it ride and align well?

 

Rides great. Alignment was completed after the install back in February 2020 and has held ever since. No issues or complaints whatsoever.

 

looks perfect

would you be able to measure ground to top of cab?? I need to see if this would still fit in my garage after adding the kit

 

I can measure later but if you have a 7’ garage door you’ll be fine. I added a prinsu on top of this and still have 1-2” clearance in the garage

 

Don’t have much info about DIY install but took mine to Westcott and they are top notch! CS was phenomenal. I’m going to order the rock sliders as soon as I sell my BBS wheels!

 

If there are no scratches or marks and pretty much brand new I would put them up 2000.

 

Are you guys installing a front differential drop kit from CoachBuilder after the front westcott lift? It’s only 1.5-2” lift but is it needed to correct any bad angles ?

 

I didn't add the front dif drop and haven't had any issues w/o it. Westcott kit was installed 2 1/2 years ago and maybe 27K miles on it so far.

 

Another question, does the PRO come lifted or leveled 1-1.5” from the factory over standard SR5, Off-road tundras? If so, adding the westcott front lift is like adding 3-3.5” lift over a standard tundra?
I end up getting 2” from the front westcott lift. Take a look at those angles, can u guys say that it’s normal? Thanks

 

That looks way nose high, or did you not do anything to the rear yet? Back to your question, yes, the Pro shocks give a 2" lift over stock height, but the westcott kit is supposed to be more like an additional 1.5", not a full 2". It's possible it'll settle after driving and getting an alignment done, but keep an eye on those CV angles.

 

Or, have you not moved the truck since installation when the pictures were taken?

 

That too

 

I put a few miles on it and drove it back home, I have the full icon RXT leaf pack optioned 3 installed just last weekend, that leaf pack put me up “unloaded” 5 inches higher in the rear! I’m planning to carry a lot of weight in the back for work “Double Pro Work Truck” build coming soon.
