Truck looks good, nice height you put there. Is the ride a lot smoother? Congrats on the new lift.

I was going to, but the idea of installing it on the ground, in the winter, was something that didn't appeal to me. I've installed plenty of long travel front ends on quads, but that's a lot smaller scale.
My friend is a Toyota Master Tech and installed it at the dealership. Paid him $160 with alignment. Said it was a straight forward install with no hiccups

The ride is not much different than stock

what is the backspacing on your wheels, tuff country site says the kit requires 4.5" or less backspacing and the company site I ordered mine from [sdtrucksprings.com] says it requires 5.5" or less backspacing. I'm getting ready to order a set of 18x9 ion wheels and want to make sure I get the right ones..thanks

I'll cross that bridge when the BFG's wear out.


Just thought I'd share a few photos
So it's been about 10 months since you posted this. I am curious how you're feeling about it.
  • Ride roughness?
  • Condition of shocks?
  • Condition of joints etc.
  • Wish you'd gone with a proper 4" or 6" lift?

Hope you can update as I'm going to order it this week if you approve.

Looking to buy the Tuff Country UCAs to add to my 2.5" level. Do you have any pictures of the UCA installed up close? What type of difference will I feel with the Tuff Country UCA instead of the stock UCA?

Thanks this is my truck currently.
