    I have a 2018 TRDOR and I'm trying to figure out what the max front lift you can do with a 1in front did drop. Measuring from the center of the cap to the bottom of the fender I'm 22.75 in. How much higher can I go and still be good with my front drive axels?

    Thanks

    Ok, Steve joined in 2018, this is first post. I dont think we should make it the friday thread... I think he is actually trying to get info and not trolling us.

    30 inches in the front. you don't have to lift the back because that'll be too expensive. might have some bro lean after it settles

    Could we all agree that it’s one of the 3 worst songs in the world?

    generally i see folks here saying that 2.5 inches above stock is the max, otherwise your cv boots will rub and eventually fail

    i believe the stock fender to hub ditance is 22 inches, someone correct me if im wrong?

    edit:
    so you could lift another 1.75 inches and be at ur absolute max lift height but u would need to check the cv boot fins to see if you’re going to wreck them

    2 inches is the safer route but i do see folks here running 2.5

    Just stack spacers until you get the hight you want.
    Welcome to TW and good luck with your truck.
