22 Tundra TRD Suspension Lift Kit

Question for those that got the lift installed at the dealer - Did the dealership re-calibrate your speedometer for the larger tires?

 

Interesting! Appreciate the help! Guess mine were taken off during install.

 

Just had mine installed by local suspension shop, I asked about the brake lines, he said there was a difference in length, ones that come with the kit were definitely longer. Said OEM on the rear were the ones that really needed to be replaced. Now on the CV Axles, he said the drivers side from the kit was shorter than OEM, the passenger side was longer. He said everything was helluva allot beefier. When they put the ECM back in, getting all kinds of lights on the dash, hopefully they will all reset. Looks good, just waiting on them to finish the alignment.

 

Not a good picture, does look like the front sits higher than the rear, will take a good look at it tomorrow. It rides a helluva allot better than it did though, that’s a plus.

 

I’m not sure of ride just yet…anything like a speed bump almost feels like a truck with no shocks. Love the look though…

 

Question, now that you have Lift installed, was reading the install instructions, the auto level for the head lights no long auto adjust, am I reading that correct, I know there was a link that was disconnected on the rear of the truck. It also says they need to look at the head light and manual adjust if needed.

 

From what I've been told, the premium auto adjustable headlights only adjust automatically by the air bags in the rear (if you have air bags suspension). No air suspension, then it won't adjust.

I have these premium auto adjustable headlights and regular suspension (no air suspension) and headlights do not adjust at all...

 

Thanks, from what I read they were suppose to from what I read in the book, have the same setup as you do. I will do some more research on the subject, appreciatie the answer.

 

For what its worth, I have a limited with factory installed lift. I added 35's and havent had a single person flash their lights at me. Highway and backroads. I use the auto bright button, but i feel like they are adjusted where they should be. As far as tires, I was told that recalibration wasn't possible at this time. at 80, its only 3 off

 

Different tires makes a big difference in ride and appearance, allot smoother and quieter. Only jumped to 275/65/20, went with Cooper AT3

 

Any one run 33s with the factory TRD lift? I’m looking to maintain mpgs and performance as much as possible.

 

33s? Can you post a few more shots? Considering 33s myself to preserve performance and move. Any discernible difference from stock? Are those AT3s LT Or XLT Or 4S? Thank you!

 

I’ll take another pic, gas mileage with lift &tires took a hit, about 2 mpg, ride is helluva allot better. But if I had the big monies, I believe I would have went with a full setup from King or Icon. Tires are LT’s actually 34.1 could have went bigger, but some folks were saying that 35’s rubbed the UCA on stock wheels.

 

Big tires don’t seem to faze these trucks other than fuel economy. I would suggest finding the lightest tire and wheel setup. My wife’s truck has 35’s. Just put a deposit on mine. Thinking of trying 37’s.

 

Care to share the name of the dealer...that sounds like a great price

 

top photo 33s and what are the bottom?

 

TRD SPORT with 35s. 18x9 Fuels. Perfection.

 

Did you need wheel spacers?

 

Looks really good. I have the 2024 Limited and going TRD Lift with 285/65R20 in Mickey Thompson Baja Boss AT.

 

Yes. With 35s

 

Can you tell me how far your tires poke out from your fenders or do you have some pictures showing that? I love the stance of your truck in that picture!

 

I put 35” Nitto Ridgegrapplers on the stick 20” wheels

Not really any poke. I do get the slightest rubbing at full lock, but it is very minimal and I just avoid that when I can. Didn’t want to go smaller on tires.

 

Looks perfect IMO. I went with 285/65R20. I was told any bigger and would not be able to use chains (if needed).

 

So I just finished this novel of a thread the last 4 nights.

Clearly Toyota was like Thanos and said, "I'll do it myself" since it appears that dealers are messing up installs when people put the proper max tire size and still got rubbing.

Was at Rick Hendrick in Fayetteville NC and saw this floor item. Dude said no rubbing of course. So I left with my 4 oil filters (do my own now after some curb kisses by dealer).

What's everyone else's final assessment?

I'm anticipating throwing the kit on next March when I pcs. Will keep stock 20s and run 35/12.5/20 ko2 but probably end up getting rubber?

 

With stock wheels and 35’s , and 3” lift there is no way you will get any rubbing. There will be lots of room.
Even with stock height and no lift and 35’s you will have ample clearance as long as you stay with the stock wheel offset.
Change offset from stock +60 and you WILL be rubbing somewhere.
Keep in mind less offset from+60 pushes the tire out , thus increasing the radius of your wheel , hence less space in the wheel well.
So going from +60 to 0 offset pushes your wheel 2.36” further out.
That’s a lot
Most trucks factory offset is around +30 . But not here .
Pay attention to your offset when planning your wheel tire combo. Not so much on the lift

 

OK, noted. I think this thread had someone show the stock offset is like +47 behind the rim or something... might be from a video I saw as well. Losing track of what dimension I'm in with this rabbit hole.

But there were a few posters in this thread who advised on rub issues with the stock rims and trd lift.. like I'll dig and tag u or something;seemed strange and concerning

 

20" with 35s looks really good. I would leave it.

 

Has any one found a dealer in North GA area that is willing to install the TRD Suspension Kit for a decent price? I got a quote from the dealer that services my vehicles today and it was $3200.

 

$3200 is the kit including install? I got quoted $5000 from one dealer and $5400 from anoher here in Sothern California.

 

The $3200 was just the labor for the install. I already have the kit. I called at least 6-8 dealers today some of which never called me back. Some of them acted like they had no idea what I was talking about or requesting a quote for. Out of my actual responses, the labor quotes ranged from 4000 - $1860 at Toyota dealers and one from a lift shop for good measure at $1225. I intend to pay the higher dealer price in the event that I have issues in the future.
