I've got a 99 Toco 4X4-V6. Want to give it a 2 in. lift. Is spacers above shocks in front and add-a-leaf the way to go???<br>all input welcome<br>TONY T.

Don't use spacers. Rancho makes a 1 1/2" coil and strut. It is stronger and gives a better ride. It sells for about $250. Use a add a leaf for the rear if needed. This is what I did and I'm very happy. Good luck

Absolutely!<br><br>and it's safe to go upto 2.5"<br><br>Do it, you won't regret it!<br><br><a href=http://ttora-ne.mainpage.net target=new>http://ttora-ne.mainpage.net</a>

I have noticed that my rear end is very stiff and has trouble geting traction even when going up a hill on some lite bumpy pavement. I was also thinking about lifting my 2000 Tacoma V6. if I add a leaf in the rear won't it make it stiffer. what should I do? Do you have this problem? thanks Ryan

yes, AALs will stiffen the rear end more... <br><br>You can go with longer shackles, this will keep your current ride but still offer 1.5-2" of added lift... However, a longer shackle will require a tailpipe mod...<br><br>New England TTORA<br><a href=http://ttora-ne.mainpage.net target=new>http://ttora-ne.mainpage.net</a>

So I should run the rancho springs in the front that will lift it about 2", and put a shackle in the rear. what about blocks in the rear? which ones are better?..... oh yea, do they sell just the rancho springs or do you have to buy a kit? because I have bilstine shocks right now and I am very happy with them. what about traction is there some kind of traction bars or somthing that would help keep my ass end on the trail? or could I remove a leaf and then use a taller shackle or add a block to make up for it. I don't know. sorry, I kind of drilled you with questions this time. Ryan

As far as I know, the Rancho is a full kit...<br>You could always check <a href=http://www.ttora.com target=new>http://www.ttora.com</a> and see if anyone is selling Rancho Coils...<br><br>Stay away from blocks, they will break on the trail...<br><br>Unless you are blasting through the woods at 50MPH traction bars are pointless...<br><br>Check out Mark's truck at <a href=http://members.delphi.com/imnuclear/index.html target=new>http://members.delphi.com/imnuclear/index.html</a><br><br>He's running the Rancho Kit on 33/10.50 Interco Thornbird Tires with a 2" body lift...

I WANTED TO PUT SOME 32 X 11.50 15 TIRES ON MY TRUCK. IS THE RANCHO KIT GOING TO BE ABLE TO CLEAR THEM? BECAUSE I READ THAT IT ONLY LIFTS YOUR TRUCK 1.5". HOW IS THE RANCHO KIT ARE THE SPRINGS REALLY STIFF BECAUSE I WANT SOMETHING THAT WILL BE SUPER PLUSH. THIS IS FOR MY 2000 TOYOTA TACOMA V6 4X4. THANKS RYAN

Each truck in a little different, but 32s should fit fine with the Rancho kit. If you have a after market rim watch the offset. I have the coils on my '00 Tacoma and the ride is great.

What kind of tires are you running. because the ones that I am going to get are probably going to hang out an inch or so. can you notice there is a difference in lift? Ryan
