    Looking for a recommendation on a shop to do a suspension lift on my 2021 Tundra. BDM customs did the lift on my previous truck (2017 Tacoma TRD OR) and I'm in the EV so SDHQ is another option. What other shops should I be looking at?

    My rear tires (OEM Michelin) are at 2/32 and 3/32 so I need to replace them. I'm torn between just slapping something cheap on them while I decide on what I want to do vs just pulling the trigger and doing the upgrade now. Would ideally like to make the upgrade in the next 6-12 months.

    I want to go to a leveled 3" lift with 285/75/18 tires (likely Nitto ridge grappler). Not sure what I want to do on wheels yet. I loved the SCS Ray 10's I had on my Tacoma but lost them when the truck was totaled after being rear ended.

    Appreciate any recommendations you guys have.

    Depending what you do, it really isn't hard to swap suspension in the driveway. But again, depends what all you are wanting done. I've swapped my suspension twice now and both times I was essentially solo. Lots of videos out there and you then know what was done and how things were torque'd.

    BDM did the lift on my 4R years ago when they were in Tempe, but last time I drove by it looked like they closed?

    I'd have no problem going to SDHQ either.

    ORW in Mesa at the old 4WP may be worth looking into?

    I've thought about that but might me more of a learning curve for me than I'm willing to take on.

    BDM is still active on IG and their website so I'm assuming they're still operational.

    Thanks for the recommendation on ORW. I'll look into them.

    Is SHHQ generally more expensive or just dependent on what I want to do? I"m not looking to build an off road/over land monster. My truck is 80% pavement princess with some occasional off road use but nothing extreme (mainly forrest roads for camping).
