    Add TRD Pro grill Add 5100 Bilstein shocks front and back at highest setting Add Toy Tech Shackles on the rear Add Grid GD-1 +15 offset rims Add Toyo Terra Grappler 305/60R18's Add Katzkin leather seats (Original seats were UGLY)! Add rubber bed mat (free from dealership) Add cargo bed lights Add tint (legal) to the windows
    Yep that's what we're doing. I'm adding all my build stuff to the loan. New pro grill, new leather seats, rims/tires, and the lift job. Bought the basic truck to make it cheaper and have more to put towards the upgrades.

    I second that. I had my ToyTech Boss installed today and love the look. Didn't get to see it too much in the light tonight but looked awesome.

    Smart choice. Spend the extra $300 ($5-$10 a month) over the popular 3/1 lifts and get a 2.5 rebuildable coilover. You will shoot yourself in the foot if you don't.

    I have the 3/1 readylift and it works great. No issues and i even take it off road. No rock crawling though. It's mostly a pavement queen.

    Yep its a 3/1. didnt need UCAs but i did buy SPCs, just have not installed yet. Had to remove flaps and cut a little on the bumper end liner for the 295's. Lift kits get a bad name but no issues with mine. As long as you arent rock crawling or hitting really large holes you should have no problem.

    I have a Readylift 2.4 kit that I got to level the front end, (not installed yet) but I am thinking about getting the 3/1 kit. We go in the mountains and stuff, but mostly use truck in town and for road trips. Just hate the front rake. UGH. However, there is too much info on here, hahahhahahaha. I have 20's. What size tire you running?

    Check out eibach pro truck coil overs for up to a 3 inch of lift, I have it and I love it the system runs around $600 with the same shocks as the toytech for half the price.

    @Dzamorano71 Man, that post was a while ago. Dunno why it seemed prudent to you to bring it up now. LOL

    Mine came stock with larger wheel tire combo as a dealer option called XP. The 20 inch rims with Nittos G2 275/55/20 made the handling horrendous right from the dealership's floor. I installed Bilstein 5100's and the ride is now as if I was running factory size tires. The coilovers are not just about leveling for looks or for offloading. They drastically improve the ride and also the road feel to the steering wheel.

    It’s awesome there are dealerships out there that will still offer suspension lifts / leveling kits. A lot of them now will not touch the suspension on 2018+ model years because of the TSS system.
