New Member introduction, and suspension question

I recently got my hands on a 2011 Tundra and am loving it. Got it with 138k miles, all stock. Recently put on some 2021 tss wheels to get the old BBS that came stock to repaint. My question on suspension is I daily the truck and have to get down an old torn up road from big rigs to get to work. I'm looking into going for a 3" lift and update the wheels and tires down the road. I'm not wanting to break the bank on the lift since the truck is 2wd and it wont see any crazy off roading, but I'd like something that will last. Thanks in advance!

Welcome from OKC! Check out Fat Bob's Garage Vated front adj coilovers set at 3", a set of 1.5" blocks and new u bolts in the rear. Front bump stop 1" extensions, front sway bar 1" drop spacers from ready lift. Maybe a rear brakeline ext kit from Ironman or OME just to be safe. Pretty cheap lift. If it won't align, you can either add adjustable UCA's or drop the lift by adjusting the coilovers about 1/4" at a time, which would reduce lift about 1/2" each time. 3"is kinda the max before you can't get alignment anymore with stock UCA. Every case is slightly different though. Good luck!

 

I’m willing to spend a good amount just not of course resi king and or foxes, but lower end I’ll be willing to pay for.

Thank you for the input, got anything for lead springs? I noticed mine are not just flat but also look like a w.

 

I went with Dobinson's 5+2 HD packs, just be sure you raise bump stop heighth to compensate or else eventually you will get flat springs again. Many lift with shackles and don't increase bump stop heighth and then blame the springs after the longer shackles force the springs into negative arch when loaded. My truck is kinda unique as it has HD leaf packs, yellow Sumo springs, and Roadmaster Active Susp. HD kit. Plus BDS traction bars and Bilstein 5160 w/resi shocks. I can easily double my payload rating and still not squat very much. Just the way I like it and sometimes use it. Call Anthony at Boss 4x4 and he can hook you up with some Dobinson's leaf packs. Great customer service!

Any feed back on toytec coilovers?

 

Respectable choice

 

I think many folks who have Bilsteins aren't complaining and you won't go broke with em.

 

I see that the toytec website has adjustable coilover 5100's think those would be better over the ones with the just the collars?

 

This thread may help you decide

 

Thank you

 

The ToyTec ultimate 3" lift is a good choice, would recommend either the shackle or spring option over blocks, depending on your rear bushing condition would recommend if you went shackle option to opt for shackle with bushings. Probably one of the best ways to get leveled and some lift.

 

Welcome from SoCal. My current truck is 2WD and has better suspension than most. But that's silly talk.

 

Welcome!
