    I'm looking for lift kit that will work well to sit just a little higher. I've done a good search, but was hoping to get one recommended for my 18, CM by fellow tundra owners.

    Thanks in advance.

    Budget?
    What are you looking for?
    Off road use?
    How high?

    I wanted to raise it slightly more (6 inches to a foot). No off road use. Under 2k. G/f still needs to be able to get in it so I don't want to go much taller.

    Gotta pay to play. $2k for a 6” will probably not ride the way you want.

    My Toytec BOSS kit suspension alone is worth more than that.

    Okay, fair enough I need to spend more than 2k. Getting sick and tired of all these GM's and Chevy's in the lot at work that sit just a little higher than mine bone stock.

    Dont worry about how short it is, brag about how reliable it is. Yes that can be taken 2 ways.

    Damn a 12" lift is "slightly higher" these days?

    I'm an Old Man Emu fanboy. Your looking at about $2200 for the original kit, that's with UCAs and Dakar leaf pack.
    $3500ish for the new OME BP51 w/o UCAs.

    Spend the money and don’t look back. You probably just spent 40+ grand on a new truck. Don’t make it a turd with a cheap lift.
