3in or 6in lift?

Sorry, I got busy today and just now had time to check in here. As the other folks said. the 5/3 is referring to 5" front and 3" rear lift I installed when I first got my truck. After about 5K miles, I wasn't thrilled with the ride quality so I bought new Fox coilovers and rear shocks and replaced the existing leaf springs with better ones. Truck rides great now and the changes resulted in a lift of 6" front and 4" rear.

 

Let the chrome flow into you OP. It's got it's place in these parts. I think your truck is fine as is unless you need some more aggressive tires. That's a nice ride

 

Welcome, and congratulations on choosing the right color for your Tundra.

Chrome & badge elimination will go a long way in improving the trucks appearance, I should have a white grille & front bumper by the end of Summer.

I run counter to the norm here in that I prefer a truck that sits level, but is not lifted. I accomplished this by hanging the rear leaf spring under the axle... this lowers the bed and levels the truck. I run 30" high performance tires in the hot summer months, and I will roll on 33" Michelin Defenders beginning this fall. I am currently on 32" Michelins (pictured) until temperatures heat up again. BTW, RNs are my favorite people in the world.

 

Sweet! Thanks!

 

Yeah, what's the deal with that?

It's sometimes hard for me to get to the thread when I know the exact title.

Like you say, I search google, and it brings me to here. That ought to be in the site directions.

 

Needs a set of running boards. Black would be nice and offset the chrome to help balance. Plus it's easier to climb in. Chrome these days is included in my palette.

 

Welcome from SC. What size of tires you want to run?

 

That is the perfect looking setup. That’s a 6” lift on 33s? Really nice. I have 33s and was thinking about what mine would look like with a 6” lift.

 

35s at minimum

'14 CM bought used, it came lifted from the dealer, 6" RC lift, 35x12.50x20 wheels 20x9 +20 offset tires flush with fender flares

 

I think the Yodagin sticker is what early makes this truck pop! I've been meaning to order some of these from @boardude

 

Very nice

 

Gracias!

 

Do it! I got black reflective ones now, haven't put on

 

I know some say you can do an 3 inch but might have to chop the body some. 4 will do fine but try to stay after from spacers

 

All about wheel offset

 

I started a chrome delete on mine but i could just trade it in for a sport for how much it costs to do it. The grill and hood bulge was about 500. Bumper caps 600, mirror caps, hood scoop , blacked out emblems.. its a rabbit hole. I decided to just stop at doing the grill and hood bulge.

I have had 47 modified race cars and 4wd trucks so I decided to do it right the first time this time. My Tacoma had maybe 6 suspensions on it before I got it how I wanted it. I do all my own work. I started buying suspension stuff instead for now. I got 3" coachbuilder rear shackles they give 1.75" in rearlift and a better ride. Next will be 3" lift king front coilover shocks. Front sway bar delete. Upper control arms so they don't rub and it can be aligned correctly. re-gear nitro gear set so I wont lose power with skinny 35" tires. No huge offset rims because they make things rub and flip crap all over the side of the truck. Trying to decide if I want the smaller supercharger or the big one.

 

Welcome from NY.

 

Info on your wheels please!

Great looking truck!!

 

Went with 6” lift and 35s

 

Is it the angle of the pic or is it squatting?

 

Freak an A right!? Bumpers left for me and am doing a bunch of other stuff first. $600 goes way further and more fun than bumper caps.

 

I always tell people to go with the bigger lift!! When you go with the small one it is only a matter of time you will want to go bigger.

 

Totally the angle! No squatting here.

 

Bumper caps in TPU Black are $160, not bad... and the black matches the center black bumper pretty well also.

 

Some Damn Noice trucks....Nostrovia!!!

 

Yea its not even about the money but value for money. I didn't make it by wasting it.
