Bro shave your mustache 😂 couldn’t keep watching
😂😂😂😂
😂 💀
🤣🤣🤣
They hate us cause they ain’t us 😂
The only real negative to a full suspension lift is that the truck is modified quite a bit removing a lot of OEM parts off and making irreversible suspension changes to the vehicle. A spacer lift can be reversed back to stock. It’s very important to be honest about what you’re doing the lift to accomplish. If you’re lifting your truck so that you can go off-road you need to put the extra money into it spend more on new shocks coils etc so that it can take all that abuse. If it’s only for looks and not performance your stock suspension is prob gonna be fine unless you trying to do a monster lift height which could push the limit of the stock cv joints etc.
“1:00 be mature guys”
Has a elf hanging from his trailer hitch 👍🏻
I am not responsible for that but also not mature lol Thanks for watching also good eye!
3in suspension lift then stack a 2 or 3 inch leveling kit, when you start adding armor like a roof rack and bumpers, that stuff is metal and sags the suspension down and you’ll start rubbing on them oversized tires
Do the whole suspension. Your gonna love texas trucks are like freaking jewelery they want you to show that shit off.
Cannot wait! I would love to see the truck scene! Maybe once this whole thing blows over 👍
I have a 16 Tacoma TRD off-road quicksand I did the 5100 lift kit with add a leaf because I tow a 5k lb boat and I'm very happy and it only cost 464$ to install and another 190$ for alignment with side steps and new tires 265 75 r16
Did your mpg change with those tires? Those tires are like a 1” bigger, because I’m planning to put same tires on my Tacoma, Nice color of truck.
2 inch level in the front is probably the way I will go. I just love the look of a leveled truck.
Agreed! Very good looking that way!
Me too, until you load it.
Currently on Bilstein 5100s front and rear and OME springs with AAL and Camburg UCA on 285/70/17 Ko2. Smooth ride with no complaints!
What springs did you go with? 887 or 888? Looking to get this exact kit! Thanks in advanced :)
@@OfficialAing i went ahead with the 888! Np man
Will it void my
Warranty ?
Good info bro! Suspension lift is the way to go if you want more ground clearance for off roading. Myself I'm staying stock.. or will I? Actually tires for me first. These trucks aren't cheap, but we'll worth the buy!
Arent cheap is very very true! LOL yea I am going to get wheels and tries first then do my lift! Yea I am going with full suspension as welll just to be safe!
Tires make a huge difference alone ,and might even give you a little lift,but mainly much better at off roading then the stock tires that come with it.
Your mustache reminds me of those magnetic kids toys where you put facial hair on the face with a magnet.
Maybe someone can help? I have a stock 2006 Tacoma TRD Prerunner 2WD. The shocks are bad and I will be replacing them. Do I need to replace the strut springs or can I use the old ones? Also, What shocks do you recommend for the truck" I am thinking about getting the Bilstein 4600's. If I want to raise the front level Should I use the 5100's?
If I was going to only take my truck off road rarely to go to my buddies farm to fish will spacers work? The land isn’t really that rough of a drive as is.
Duuuude! You are so close to 1000 subs, I’ll take every inch (of clearance) I can get 😂 awesome vid bruh!
You'll take every inch, eh.....
Yea man almost 1K cant wait! Thanks for the comment and continued support!
I keep my trucks stock - I bought my 2019 in Jan of '19 and have put 79K miles on it so far - a LOT of it in 4WD. We own a horse farm on a river so my truck gets used and the stock performance is fantastic. My son has a 2002 TRD Off Road 4WD Tacoma. He bought it from a close friend of mine - who bought the truck new. My friend had a professional installation suspension lift (5" I believe) put on that truck many years ago. The truck has 33" tires, an ARB Bumper with large Warn Winch. My son now has 245K miles on the truck and with the exception of normal maintenance the truck has had very little issues - and the truck is not a mall crawler. In my opinion, the suspension lift is not needed for most folks, but my son (and my friend) love the look of a lifted truck. Because my friend did not go cheap and was diligent about maintenance he had no issues with a lift. Stock or lift - up to you - just do not be penny wise and dollar foolish. Good luck!
WOW! I appreciate you sharing that with me, very good information from that. Puts things into perspective, I like the look of the lift but also for off-roading don't think it'll see nearly half of what you and your son put the truck through. This will be a learning experience for me hopefully a good one! 🤞😁
Bilstein 5100s at the highest setting, and jba uca. Then 285s, sits nice and high but yet not hurting anything. Then 1.5" aal to keep a lil rake on the rear incase you wanna tow or put weight on the bed
My truck is currently sitting at 3.5" with 285 75 16 and bilstein set at the highest setting. After it settles, its still sit good but around 2.75 of lift. Ive seen trucks with 2" lift but they look like theyre on 3 or 4"
BET! I needed this, I was going to go with 275 70 17 cause I was scared of rubbing on my body mount lol
Love the truck and your “quicksand” hoodie 😂 great video as always
THANKS BROTHER! Appreciate that very much!
Not the sticker on the back 😂 appreciate you bro. Bout to buy my Tacoma soon
good info that covers suspension for all types. I'll be doing a video as well covering my suspension set up soon and I had the lift done at the dealership so its all covered under the warranty.
Sweet! What kind of lift did you go with? Cant wait to watch it brother!
Nice video. 3rd gen owner here. I just installed the RC 3.5" lift. Just waiting for my current KO2s to wear out before getting taller ones.
I just got the 3.5 RC as well
How is that lift running? Did you put a front diff spacer drop on?
@@Idonotknowthisman It is nice. A bit firmer than stock. The kit did come with diff spacers.
What size tires did you leave on and what size are your new ones going to be. Are you using stock rims, and did it do anything to your tss system, Toyota safety system
@@jeremyfall2270 stock size tires and I'm lucky I don't have any tss.
I did a Deaver add-a-leaf and Westcott's preload collar kit. Was about $450 or so. 2.5" in the front and 1.5" in the rear. I didn't use the 0.5" spacer it came with, so it isn't level but it is when I have a bunch of stuff in the back.
Suspension lift by far better. Spacer are more stiffer. Look in simple terms if you wanna lift it for looks, spacer are the way, if you want to do trails and stuff, suspension with UCA and and adds leaf
I used spacers and blocks 300 dollar ikit it included a differential drop kit and it works great and I didn't realign the front end and it drives straight. 22 Tacoma SR5 4X4 truck. And I installed 265/75/16 tires. It's awesome
If you're not gonna go off roading, mostly paved roads not hauling any heavy items, then a leveling kit is ok.
I have an 08 Tac that I take off the main roads a lot. (Im an outdoor freak). I thought about lifting but rather go with some bigger All terrains for better traction. To me unless you're racing your truck there's no need to mess up the suspension. But pretty boys like to do it for the look 😆
Dan T- Congratulations on owning one the the best made trucks ever! I too am in that club, ‘06 4x4 4.0 manual Tacoma, I run K O 2’s, 265/75 16’s , slight rubbing when I turn sharply, other than that my rig handles extremely well in snow, mud, sand, I want to keep it stock but may lift it slightly just so my snow chains clear everything.
@@gregflores8959 I was looking at the same tire size 265/75 16. So you say there's a bit rubbing when turning 🤔. I might go for 265/70 16 then. Only problem is they're kind of hard to find
@@dant3113 That should do the trick, either way, the K O 2,s are thee best set of tires I ever purchased, I have put quite a few miles on them for 4 years now and they appear brand new, loads of tread remain.
@@gregflores8959 awesome 👌
My 2c worth....
What is the reason for lifting?
For me, I need to travel some rough roads to get to my fishing holes. I don't want my oil pan to suffer the consequences. So, I need to lift it farther away from the ground. The only thing that will do that is bigger tires. Hence, I need to lift the body to accommodate those tires. 2" is plenty of room for 33s
which lift kit are you getting I cant decide 😭😭 I really want king but its expensive
Nice 👍, got a. 2020 TRD , new to your channel
taking my 2021 today to get 2 inch front lift using levels. no terrain in miami, fl. just, floods... lol
Thanks. A suspension is in my plans.... at some point.
The A arms work between the upper and lower bump stops, the more you lift the more angle the cv joints on the axles.. then wear faster, and limit wheel drop, a mid travel kit id imagine would be better, without uniballs because I drive in Canada with lots of ice and salt, uniballs wouldn’t last and maintaining them daily would be a pain.
@Aing Here's the way to go bro. I'm on a 2.5 lift in the front and 1.5 in the back, with 265 70 17 tires which are one size higher than the Sports 265 65 17 stock size.
If you dont want to lift yet, get 265 70 17 all terrains. They will instantly give you 1 inch of lift over stock and the only con is about 1-2 mpg less. But remember they will look just a tad small when you do lift. Thats what I have now.
Next option if you want to lift and get bigger tires but not get into a money pit, get a 2.5 inch lift in the front and 1.5 in the rear to level it all out and then get 275 70 17's this should handle almost all moderate trails easily.
Last option if you want to go bigger with tires get the lift and 285 70 17's but that will require cab mount chop and other trimming, possibly leading to spending more and more money. I doubt I will ever do this but its tempting.
Yea that's why I am taking so long to do this, because I do not want body mount chop or relocation! Looking to do it right the first time!
@@OfficialAing I dont either. I'm on 265 70 17 but should be able to fit 275 70 17 on the stock rims and without cmc or trimming. I also have SPC UCA's though which help you fit bigger tires. In my opinion 275 is the sweet spot and is what most dealerships in Vegas also use on lifted trucks
@@johnnytorres277 are you sure 275s don’t rub on a 2.5 lift?
@@d.r.6555 95% sure, atleast with adjustable UCA's you can adjust things and not have to chop up your truck. I'm still on 265 70 17 though but belong to lots of tacoma offroading groups and I've never heard or read of anyone saying they had to cut or chop anything for 275's. Its also the size that most of the Toyota dealerships here in the Las Vegas use for their lifts. I asked my service guy at the dealership and its the biggest size he recommended to not void the warranty and cause any problems with them, since its the size they use too.
@@johnnytorres277 awesome thank you. I’ve been debating about lifting my truck since December. I thought about 3” lift with 285s then I thought 275 with a 2in lift. Now I think I finally decided to go 265 with no lift and save myself the money and possible headaches
Thanks for the good infor bro!
nice and good points! I am keeping my '19 Pro all sock...except for a new set of tires next spring! new sub here and you got a great channel!
Awesome! What tires you going with? Thank you very much! I am glad you enjoyed and appreciate the subscription!
@@OfficialAing I am leaning towards the KO2's for now, but open to suggestions! I will do a video of mine in the next few days!
Honestly spacers are cheep and will get the job done...it will be rough but it will work. What your talking about is a leveling kit. Literally not even a lift tbh but yeah suspension is the way to go no matter what hight you goin for
3/2 on spacers is too much. Get a proper kit which will run rougher down the road. 2/1 level spacer kit will be cheaper and ride fairly stock since you are still running stock spring and rebound rates.
bilstiens bro cheap and better then stock drive
Thats what I am getting 5100 front and rear 👍
@@OfficialAing No, dont do it. Do whatever you can to sae some more and get atleast the Bilstein 6112 in the front and 5160's in the rear. People with 5100's have a hard time keeping up with me and thats what I have. Dont be the slow poke on the trail holding everyone else up. Eat ramen noodle soup if you have to. Its well worth the jump up.
True story here but it's going to sound like I"m bragging. My friend was hauling ass on a trail in his Fox Pro suspension and I was right behind him. When we hit the end of the trail he told me he was shocked that I was able to keep up with him.
Can you level the front with Bilstiens?
@@KoolCreation yes
Also remember come it doesn't stop at the cost of the suspension lift / kit. It's nearly equal the cost of the kit to have the suspension kit put on to the truck. Labor is expensive. 👍 Unless of course.. you do it yourself. That's tricky.
If anything! Just drive the taco! And when you run into issues go from there! E.g. I took off the running side steps cuz they got me stuck! And I added beefier tires. Currently working on gettn a cab mount chop to add 35's im here in Texas and do a bit of offroad camping! Hilly trails and beaches. So yea man just use what the truck has until you know the capability of it. And diy most of it! Save yourself a buck. Ok young man go and use that Taco.
New taco=spacers ~ old taco=kit
Whoever ever see this can you tell me where can I buy the thing hanging out his truck in the back
If you want bone stock reliability don't lift. Lifted my 08 TRD OR 3 inch and bearing problems. , vibrations. So my 2020 TRD OR prem. Im thinking keeping stock.
What brand was it?
So in other words you either bought a bad lift or it was installed badly. I'm in many offroading groups and almost every single one of us has lifts and many of the guys have Toyotas that have hundreds of thousands of miles on them.
That's my fear about the lift but Ive heard both thing things about both so who knows!🤷♂️
@@OfficialAing Just make sure you get it done at a good shop. I have tech and premium package and had 0 issues with my lift, and have bene back to the dealership for the complimentary 2 year maintenance and fuel pump recall and the didnt care about the lift. I also brought up that my transmission shifts weird and they said they did a software update and never blamed the lift or even brought it up.
I wish but there are no shops near me that wanna lift my truck 🙄 still looking though 😁
Just get really good tires
I use naxsima daily !!
Go big or go home. Full suspension 6 inch cut the shit out the frame yolo. 18 inch rims on 35s. Your welcome.
Bro the stache is fire bro I fucks with it👨🏻
Dude you have a 3rd gen tacoma and can't afford 1k for a suspension lift?
Why is it that almost every tacoma video I watch starts off with " hey, whats up everbody", or some variant of that? Asking this requires an answer, which a viewer cannot give, and it is also stupid!
Ayyy #RATTPACK GANG👍🔥
Definitely go with a full suspension lift if you decide to do anything. I have a 2.5 inch leveling kit on my F150 and my front end angles are terrible. To the point that it won't go into proper full alignment. It decreases ride quality too. I also have a spacer lift kit on my 99 Jeep wrangler TJ that my dad gave me. One day I will definitely change out the lifts on these to full suspension lifts. I haven't had any big time issues other than bad ride quality and on my F150 my upper control arms wore pretty quickly along with the ball joints. I plan on getting a Tacoma soon to be a little better on gas than the two and kinda fit in between my F150 and Jeep. I plan on going around a 4 inch lift kit. I won't ever put a cheaper lift on like Rough country. Definitely save up for Zone, BDS, Old man emu
Clearacel bro
$150..spacers not good on springs
Either fix the mustache or shave it off geez
I’m surprised you got the 4x4
You sounded cheap af..
I had the level kit I was able to take my Tacoma off roaring never gave me issues.. I upgrade to 3.5 king
Just because the ride is softer.
Check again bud. 2020 has the TSS that needs to be moved and maybe deleted if u lift them. I’m so disappointed with Toyota
Talking everything lift but not really
What are you saying??? Worst video ever on suspension lift
Sorry about that, I will try better next time
Cheap cost more
Tint those windows for god sake bro …….
First
Thanks brother! 👍😎
@@OfficialAing ❤️🙏🏼
Yeah I have a suggestion for ya…stop doing UA-cam videos on the Tacoma. Do something different like fixing your funny facial hair.
sir yes sir!
Nothing wrong with a small body lift if you already did suspension lift and just trying to fit bigger tire. That’s my theory at least. I am about to put 1.5 inch body lift to stop 35 inch tires rubbing at full flex.
