    Had a ready lift installed on my 2020 tundra trd pro by 4 wheel parts now Everytime I drive over a bump drive in or out of my garage I hear a noise coming from the suspension 4 wheel parts is stumped and can't find the issue. Any suggestions or someone having the same issue?

    Could be the skid plate rubbing against the frame.

    Did you install aftermarket uca? Diff drop?

    I'd take that spacer lift off personally. Your CV angles are probably terrible now and your balljoints are being way too stressed.

    I've used a spacer lift on a previous 4runner before and learned the hard way, I'll never do it again. If you want a huge lift, it's gonna cost you in the long run

    ^ This. With spacer lifts, we've seen the spring hitting the control arm at full droop. Lots of other issues with spacer lifts as well.

    Why pay such a premium for a Fox suspension set up and then change it with a cheap ready lift :monocle:

    If your referring to the ReadyLift Pro +2, I have the same lift on the front of the truck but a 1.5" shackle w/ 1" block on the rear and hear nothing more than the usual before the lift.

    Check your front swaybar mounts. I had my Billstein kit installed and they left one of the front swaybar mounts loose. Easy enought to check it by crawling under the truck and banging around with a rubber mallet. Soon as I hit the swaybar... bingo problem found.

    We don't see a need for them no. Just need more info from the OP, however if the shop that installed it cannot see where this noise is coming from... its going to be hard to diagnose via the interwebs

    I’m having a similar issue on my 2019 Tundra after the 3/2 ReadyLIFT. Squeaky noise in the back and a metal clunking noise in the front, all when going over bumps. Anyone figured this out yet?

    Fixed mine by removing and selling it.

    No shop could fix all the noise I was getting from my 3/2

    Man that would suck for me. It just baffles me because I know people with Tundras that have 3/2 ReadyLIFTs with no issues. Even Gearrunner on YouTube. This is a bummer. But thanks for your help.

    From what I’ve gathered, some trucks don’t have issues, some do. By the time you have shops look at it and try to figure out what’s going wrong you might as well have bought a suspension lift and not a spacer lift. I had hell with mine.

    Also without aftermarket UCAs you will always get outside tire wear. No matter what the alignment says.

    Maaan, real good to know. I think it might be my sway bar. I’m taking it to the shop today. Thanks again for your help.
