    So I have just purchased a 2019 Tundra CM with the TRD Off-Road package. It came with Trail-Tuned Bilstein Shock absorbers. Does this apply any lift to my Tundra?

    If not, what are the opinions on this Toytec 2.5" Lift Kit
    • FRONT:
      • 2.5" Lift Front Spacer kit. CNC machined from 6061 T-6 aluminum
      • Front Differential drop kit with skid plate spacers for 4WD models.
    • REAR:
      • 1" lift rear block kit with U bolts.
      • 1.5 inch rear lift blocks
    No offroading. All highways (lots of) miles on the road daily.......

    No lift with the TRD OR shocks.

    As @joonbug said, those shocks have no lift. A level kit would work, but I’d recommend going with a kit that replaces the shocks instead of pressing down on them. Bilstein 5100’s wouldn’t be a bad idea.

    This kit will work just fine on your new Tundra, just one thing you have to keep in mind is the TSS-P system on the newer Tundras could be "tripped" when leveling the truck out. A recommendation that we tell our customers is to keep a little rake on the truck to insure the sensors can read the road correctly and not trip any system OR call your local dealership to see if they are able to re-calibrate the system for you after kit is installed.

    Shoot me a pm anytime and Ill get you taken care of!



    The Bilstein 5100s are doing the same thing as our spacers do, pre-loading the spring which will make you loose travel. Yes the valving in the shock might be a tad bit different to compensate but overall side by side there will be very minor differences between the 2, especially on a brand new truck.
