    I have had my 2018 Tundra TRD Sport for a week now, have ordered some stuff for it, but looking for suggestions on lift size. Don’t want it too tall so I was thinking 3 to 4 inches. First 4wd to own.8B04D25B-D599-47A8-92C9-22DFB5C2D0AF.jpg90EDCF9E-B58F-47A8-89C7-B32415778501.jpg

    Welcome to the Forum.

    There's lots of discussion on lifts, and some vendors on here that can provide guidance as well. You should know that lifting 3" or more you will likely have to get aftermarket UCAs to get alignments back in spec, and might need a diff drop as well. If you are going to go with new wheels and tires you'll want to figure out what offset you want, and if you are willing to :sawzall: and :welder: to make them fit.

    A place to start, maybe? https://www.tundras.com/threads/guide-different-types-of-lifts.546/

    Thanks for the info, I honestly don’t know what I want, everyone around me that have 4wd go with 6” and I don’t want mine that tall, guess I will have to find a couple to look at that are shorter.

    The crazy thing is, the Tundra can pull off any height you want to toss on it. You can add a little bigger tire stock if you only want a little taller truck, too. That's the route I went. I'm not wanting to go huge, so I just bumped up the tire size a tiny bit.

    I'd suggest deciding what your intended use for the truck is going to be, and then seeing what mods fit that goal.
