Do I have to post this link again?

 

More like who's too blame?

 

This cracks me up. Bad experience with spacer kits makes them all bad? Jumping truck = broken parts. Just lowering the bump stops cures the broken strut thing. Look into Low Range Off Roads spacer kit, well designed and thought out. Had 5100's before, like this TRD sport suspension better.

 

I just ordered the billstein 5100 struts and shocks, they only cost 380 shipped, I hope they hold up for me!

 

I have the 3" Revtec and it works great for me, My buddy Travis has it also and was chasing another friends fully built tundra in Plaster city, he got in some big drops and bottomed out snapping the bottom of the coilover. When you buy the kit it comes with a sticker that says "Not For Off Road Use" It is made to make your truck look better. If you want to jump it you're going to have to invest your money in a lot more then just suspension, or live with the pile of $hit your truck will soon become.

 

I had a 1st gen taco with 3 inch spacers an a new set of coils! I used to jump it, thump it and crawl up poles. If you take care with your lines youll have no problems. And if it pops the shock or the coil slips you get to upgrade to the lift that " every body" says is great after they spent a big lump of money on it.

"never take advice from someone who just spent a lot of money on a product . They are more than likely not going to be unbiased in their views of what they have"

 

an i used to have a 2 wheel car with long travel that had a boat motor that converted into a submarine while flying in space.........

 

This thread is so full of win!

 

I have a 3" spacer lift on mine. After reading all this, im probably going to get new billies asap

 

you payed $80 too much.

 

Where are they cheaper at

 

same here, no issues.

 

Ive had spacer lifts on

2002 tacoma
2000 tundra
2012 tacoma
2007 silverado

Not a bit of problems, if they were so "crappy and cheap" procomp rbp skyjacker and many more would not put there names on it! Don't let these people bash, "why would you put a cheap lift on a 30K truck???" Why would you wheel one hard enough to fuck one up? I have a wheelin truck for that, and it ain't 30K! If I was going to do that, yeah, I would invest more money in the suspension! Thats all I'm saying! There perfectly fine for a daily driver that stays on the road.

 

It's the band wagon mentality most times on the net. I've used them on more than 5 vehicles and not once did I have the slightest issue with
ride or anything else, ever. If you just want a little lift and don't plan on
allot/any 4 wheeling there's no need for the added expense.

 

If you are just looking for a off road ready look, then a spacer is fine. If you want it capable of off roading then you should put the extra into a good suspension. Just understand there is a difference between a high heeled shoe and a backpacking boot.

 

So breaking a shock is the equivalent of woman breaking a heel and spraining an ankle?

 

Now thats funny SH#$.........

 

Thank you sir
