    Hello everyone. I am looking for suggestions and overall information to lift my 2014 Double Cab Tundra TRD Off Road. Currently it has a 3" leveling kit on it with Blisten upgrades from the dealer and have upgraded to ridge grappler tires on the truck . I would like to lift to a total of 6"-8". Suggestions for making this lift happen but keeping a comfortable ride would be greatly appreciated

    Thank you. Yeah I am out here in Lawton, Oklahoma. I love the tires and now I think it is time for the lift. Any advice on the lift?

    Are you 2x or 4x? On 4x, I wouldn't go higher than 4", then it involves cutting of the rear crossmember, once that's done, ther no going back unless you know a good welder

    4x4. Interesting I did not know that over 4” requires cutting. What would you suggest running to maximize that?

    OP, did you just add the tires? If so, what size are they? Going up another 3-5" of lift is going to make the current tires look small.

    Stick to trusted names rather than venturing out to cheaper brands. You’ll save lots of money that way

    Keep in mind, if you decide on a 6 inch lift you will need at least 35 inch tires. The cost will hover around 5K..The only way to save is to install the lift yourself, that will save you a little, but either way it's gonna be a chunk of cash.

    I wouldn't go with additional lift until you are ready for tires. The 305/55/20 are essentially a 33x12.50 and 35's are about the smallest you are going to want on 4" + of lift.
