    Hi everyone, new member here.
    Mine is 2019 TRD Pro with 8 inch ready lift. I thought that is the highest lift available on the market but later found out bulletproof make 12 inch lift.
    Is there anyway to make it 12 inch but still keeping the current lift?
    Thank you guys.

    Alot of guys that I talk to that have or had the 12" lift they don't regret it but its over kill. But if your wanting to get super close If I was you I would just do a 3" body lift also. Personally I like your ride the way it is.

    Maybe buy a 4" lift and with some creative welding to the 8" you will get the 12".... :notsure:

    It’s totally FN BA the way it is. Like someone said, 12” is overkill. IMHO.

    Body lift will get you to 11”. Doesnt look like u have the optional adjustable coilovers, if u did u could crank it up 1” no problem. Then u’d be at 12” :thumbsup:

    Crank up your coilovers . If you don't have them buy some and crank em up. And then you can throw a coachbuilder shim and shackle kit on there for another inch in front and up to 1.75 in rear.
    I've done both to turn my 7" bds into more of a 9 inch to clear 38 13.5 20s.
    You will need fully adjustable uca at that point.. well at least I did.
    If that's not enough there is always body lift but I don't no enough about them to reccomend doing so.

    Truck is too tall. Swap that 8" out for a 3/1 level with adjustable coilovers, and stuff some 37s under there :D
