New Guy Here

Welcome from the Pacific NW

 

Sean, I'm going to take your advise and look into it. I won't be able to get all together
Till next year as money is always the main factor, but I got some junk to play around with and I need to buy some 040 white paint for my fender flairs too and paint them. I used to paint cars in my 20s and 30s.
from all that I read I'm guessing the taller spindle would be the right way to start thinking about this lift and new springs and struts, that looks to be two to three grand.

Funny thing I want all this cool stuff but I don't have much time to get away these day, as I'm always working. Typically 120 hrs each pay period. Two weeks. I also have a 69 camaro pro street car I'm building. Tubbed, 9inch,turbo 400 , 383 strokes, with 671 on top of it. , money's and time, but mostly time sure has. Sorry got the real subject, what way would you go ? I guess the quick fix could be the spring spacers or the strut extension. Let me know your ideas when you can bud, thanks.
Ter.

 

Welcome from Oregon!

 

Welcome from TN!

With the aftermarket bumper and winch, you’re looking at some aftermarket coil overs with 700lb springs. Check up with @ToyTec Lifts great company to work with and great service.

Case in point, a good guy on here accidentally got a bad batch that was thought to have been disposed of by the company. After posting on here when it happened, toytec got him set up with new coil overs within two days (and this was over a weekend if I remember correctly) with no cost to him including installation (again if I remember correctly)

Says a lot about a company when their customer service is that good!!

 

You won’t need the larger spindles if you stick with a 3/1 lift (some coil overs can reach up to 3.5-4” with no problems). All you would need is some aftermarket UCA’s to correct alignment if you decide to go up to 3” - 4” of lift on coil overs.

Now if you decide to go a spacer lift over the 4” mark, you’d definitely need larger spindles. But that high is unnecessary IMO and definitely more expensive.

 

Thanks guys , sounds like I'll be working to support my new habit. Lol.
I'll look into Toy-Tech tommaro and start getting some quotes going

 

Trust me, we all working to support our addictions!!

We have a support group going (and by support....we mean supporting you draining your wallet to make your baby look good!)

 

Thank you Law... Your funny and practical at least your giving it to me straight. Thank bud.

 

I just put the Ready Lift 3/1 spacer kit on my Lola ('18 - 1794 CM)and couldn't be happier. Dimensions of change above....

Went with a 305/55r20 and had VERY minimal trim to do with a +20 offset. Installed in my shop, after alignment it drives great.... Spent all my $$$ on the purchase so I had to go the poor' boy route for the lift

Didn't know anything about lifts, offsets or Tundras in general until I joined here and the folks here helped me get thru it.

Ended up with Bushwacker Extend-A-Fender flares and the tires are PERFECTLY FLUSH with the newly painted flares.

 

Captain,
Thanks for all your info about the lift kit you installed. I'm trying to save up for the new Toytec lift.
I still need to repainted my new bumper and modify the winch cradle for the bumper mount.
Sense I got the new bumper I'm heading in the direction of a removable winch instead of it being in back of the bumper. But that may change too. Wheels and tires I have not budgeted for yet.
Thanks so much for the response back to me, and giving all the details about your lift kit.
Happy Holidays to you bud.
Ter.
