2024 Toyota Tacoma Lift Kit Install (SR5, Sport)

[@hillrunner2]

Nice! Great detail on installation process. Thanks for sharing.

[@Av8tor952]

Great video with one exception, prying the axle and control arm down is pre loading the rubber bushings. The final step should include loosening all rubber bushings pivot points, putting the vehicles weight on the tires, jounce suspension then tighten all bolts

[@Ncserv]

What is the difference on the install for the TRD OFF Road? I see this is list for the SR5/Sport. I have a OFF Road I’m about to tackle, any specific tricks on that vs what you have shown here?? Thanks

[@georgeduanejr]

Great video, guys. Thank you

[@PRO4XKEV]

Excellent video, well done Sir.

[@PatHall-w7f]

After removing the plates behind the front wheels, what do you use to seal the bolt holes?

[@alericsoule3600]

Does taking off the crash bar have any affect on warranty ?

[@kobz808]

nice.. good clear instructions .. could we get a look at it from afar

[@westcottdesigns]

I asked my video guy for some pictures of the vehicle. As soon as I get some I will get them posted up for you.👍. Thank you for watching🙏

[@jackbauer9347]

And what do the CV angles look like with 2.5 inch lift? Are the bellows rubbing at ride height?

[@westcottdesigns]

The best part is they are not extended any further then designed from the factory and stay in factory designed operating range even at full extension👍. No they are not rubbing at ride height. The dealers love the kit. A dealer did 2 trucks last week and loved how they came out and how they road and they sold them in a couple of days. Today that dealer ordered $33k in kits and said they are going to put them on every new truck that comes in. They said they have never seen a nicer high quality for the Toyotas. That was really nice to hear from the service manager and GM

[@jackbauer9347]

@@westcottdesigns That's great to hear. Do you figure same holds true with the LC250 with 2.5 in the front?

[@westcottdesigns]

@@jackbauer9347 they both use the same parts and design. The Tacoma, Land Cruiser, Tundra and Sequoia all use the same aluminum spindle. Tacoma and Land Cruiser use the same design upper arm. The strut length is a little longer on the Land Cruiser then the Tacoma and the new gen Tundra. So similar and a lot of ways.

[@KyleRattay]

So 40-60 puck kits? I’m not sold sorry to say but with the trucks blowing up there suspension this makes it worse!

[@martinrocha3265]

I’m trying to until the rock sliders I got today, one of the fittings for the bolts doesn’t fit. And there isn’t any instructions

[@mauriciovasquez9108]

Where can I buy the kit for the 2024 Toyota Tacoma RS5?

[@jfriday1ify]

What is the function of that top rubber piece that slides over the top of the shock after removing the pressed on spacer?

[@Royalty403]

to hide leaks until your warranty runs out🤣 just kidding i dont know

[@SPR28]

Not using soft jaws on the vice when working on a customers shocks? Sick

[@westcottdesigns]

@@SPR28 you want to always be carful not to mark the shock shaft.

[@SPR28]

@@westcottdesigns exactly, you should have soft jaws on the vices to keep that from happening…

[@westcottdesigns]

@@SPR28 we only use soft jaws when holding the shock shaft.

[@driftx2]

Have these kits been tested on multiple vehicles without needing an alignment? Can I just install it and not worry about even getting the alignment checked?

[@westcottdesigns]

You always have to do an alignment after lifting a vehicle and or changing the rims and tires.

[@driftx2]

@@westcottdesigns are you going to make a video for TRD off road install at some point? Trying to see if it's something I can tackle.

[@westcottdesigns]

@@driftx2 I think our team will be doing an install video on an off-road. The only difference is the disassembly if the front strut.

[@Ncserv]

What is different about the strut disassembly on an OffRoad?

[@westcottdesigns]

@@Ncserv the off road has a 2 piece shock shaft that threads together. This takes place right next to the metal retainer that is on the shock shaft.

[@AA-dx4ql]

Will the spacers make the suspension stiffer?

[@SPR28]

@@AA-dx4ql yes

[@JeffBerndt]

What are the wheel and tire specs?

[@michaelcrowl9137]

i paused it on the tire and it says 35x12.50R17

[@JeffBerndt]

​@@michaelcrowl9137 not all heroes wear capes, thanks!!!!!

[@RoscoePumpernickel]

I guess technically you can call it a lift kit. However four puck is more like a leveling kit.

[@westcottdesigns]

When you lift the front to be even with the back that would be called a level kit. When you lift the front and the rear with what ever brands or products out there it would be a lift kit.

[@e45619]

How much for this tacoma kit

[@eddieBoxer]

$3,000 dollars include installation.

[@KyleRattay]

You guys are insane for charging 3k for a 500$ in parts and in all reality less 100$ in parts I call bulls but sorry to say but this shit is fucking way gay!

[@KingRobertTaylor]

You gotta watch girls named "Jenny." Just ask Forrest Gump. LOL (gotta watch that Apple Watch in the shots too)

[@BlueSTI]

Why do this when you can just do a spacer that's easier and cheaper🤷‍♂️

[@westcottdesigns]

@@BlueSTI because this will keep the suspension from ever failing or causing failure. It works the exact same way of coil over does

[@BlueSTI]

Ya but you forgot to mention it takes 2 months or longer to recieve this kit. 🤦‍♂️ F that​@westcottdesigns

[@westcottdesigns]

@@BlueSTI the crazy thing is the more and more people find out about us and understand what we stand for they are willing to wait. We just keep getting more and more busy every day. We pick up 5 new dealers every day and have over 1700 dealers we sell to. That is what is making things so backed up. We never thought we would ever do this much business. We appreciate it. We are running our machines 24 hours now and have 3 other local companies trying to help us. What we are not willing to do is to send the work over seas. Something to think about. To you and anyone else that reads this. If a company has something on the shelf it’s for one of 2 reasons. They are not selling it fast enough or they are not making it here in the USA. As a manufacturer I can tell you without question that’s the facts! The best part is there are a lot of different options out there and so people can wait for the nicest stuff on the market made by people that have family’s to feed or go buy it from some company that is a US company that brings it in from China that feeds their family’s

[@desertrat1418]

​@westcottdesigns Damn....Very well said. You hit the nail right on the head. Waiting sucks, but it's 100% worth it when your money is feeding local families. When the time comes I know where I'll be going to build out my '24.

[@KyleRattay]

1inch is all it needs! What happens when the shock blows out? Spacer lifts cause more problems on this generation sorry but this is a fad that will burn quick

[@WillMcSpadden]

Spacers are a bad idea no matter what you wheel, doesn’t do anything except make room for bigger tires, no extra travel, etc.
