Who makes the best spacer lift

[Mvrocky]

I'm shopping for a 2-inch spacer for my TRD off road. There was a lot of choices out there which one are you using and do you like it?

But in all seriousness probably Cornfed or Daystar. Anything works really, at the end of the day they are just spacers....Also...SEARCH

A spacer is a spacer is a spacer.

Just use a hockey puck. You will get the same level of performance.

Save your money and do it right the first time. Take it from me. Upgraded my suspension 3 times.

What would be "right" ? I am looking to do a mild lift myself. Just want to stand out from stock without affecting normal driveability and probably run 275/70-17.

Recommendation?

If you're planning on driving off road use a real suspension. Heck, you can even argue that most aftermarket suspensions will make your truck drive better on the road. If budget is a concern go for Old Man Emus basic nitrogen shocks and springs. A little more expensive than Bilsteins but you will get much better performance/reliability.

Me too that's why I started this post !
We both are looking for the same thing.

I got 1" high aluminum spacers for the front off ebay, they work GREAT, they were about $60 or $70. Raised the front 2". Supreme Suspensions, IIRC.

I put Firestone airbags in back. $100 well spent.

Sure I want the 2.5" king adjustables and new UCAs, but that costs too much now.

When my stock shocks wear out, I will upgrade.

I ran bilstein 5100 with 2” icon coil springs on the rear for 2 years with no issues whatsoever. Smooth on road performance and decent off road. Less than $600 spent on it.

Not sure why no one has mentioned the fact that spacer lifts are dangerous and cause your shock to act as your bump stop instead of the actual bump stop on the lower control arm. Spacer lifts on front coilovers can, and have resulted in complete shock failures. So unless you plan on extending your bump stops to run the spacer, I'd just stay away altogether.

New to the whole lifting thing. Plan on running 2" spacer lift on a TRD PRO because want to keep the stock suspension. Is it that bad ? How does the stock TRD PRO suspension compare to ICON Stage 1 on the road and offroad ? Is the max lift 3.5" on ICON Stage 1 ?

Wait, doesn't your TRD come with Bilstien 6112's? Adjust them.

Let us know how that works out.

 

[delloro]

Why don't you save us all the drama and explain why it won't work? Are 6112's not adjustable?

Have you had any issue at all with the spacers on the front end? Any binding with axles? I just ordered a set!

You realize the last reply is almost 6yrs ago?

I have the Rough Country leveling kit -spacers - (2 1/2" front, 1" rear) and have had no problems.
