    Need some help. Just got myself a new 2016 trd pro. Wanted to level it and install 35's. Was told by installer that he's having trouble locating a 2 1/2 inch leveling kit for this model. Says it might not be possible to lift this truck due to the pro package. Does anyone know if this is true. If there is a kit, can you supply me with a brand name that carries it. Thankyou..

    Welcome to the forum. Congrats on your Pro.

    You do not want to mess up the Pro suspension with leveling kit. Contact Coachbuilder. He has shims you could put on a Pro without messing up the suspension geometry. Several Pro owners have installed his shims on their trucks.

    I used 2 shims up front on each side along with the +3 shackles in the rear.

    What are your current measurements to top of wheel well openings? I have +2's, but haven't installed them yet.

    With my 295/70/18 trail grapplers I'm approx. 40 3/4" in the front and about 42" in the rear. I haven't really been able to make time to find a completely flat spot to measure.

    Thanks for the measure. I think I might stick with the 2's then as I don't tow anything YET. I'll ponder some more.

    NP, I got the +3 because I didn't want the front higher than the back. You really can not tell that the rear is higher than the front with the +3
