Lowering advice needed - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

rsc · 08-06-2007, 02:51 AM

I want to lower my Tundra and want to hear from those that may know who makes suspension kits for the 2007 Tundra. If you know of anyone please help.

Same here.

I plan on getting one and I don't need the full load capacity. Can it be lowered 4" to 6" using a spring change? Is this lowering the whole truck too much for a spring change? Other sources claim a need to install 'offset' spindles up front.

RSC,
I checked the forum for the 2006 Toyota Tundra and found a link to somebody who builds lowering kits. I did not see any for the 2007, but it looks like they can lower the '06 as much as 4". It would be worth checking out and asking when they would have an '07 kit.

i plan on ordering the Mcgaughys 2/4 drop in the next couple weeks. Was going to wait and see if anyone came out with 4/6 drop, but it seems that ground forces kit will be less of a drop than the mcgaughys kit. Need to get this thing out of the air though, damn!

thanks

SOS makes a drop kit 2"/5" and even up to 6" if you use the top adjustment hole.

this was the first kit i found, but would rather have a lowered coil spring, then knock off the stock spring perch and glue another on. just seems more reliable with new spring. plus the sos kit is $700

What is wrong with you guys, lowering a truck is like cutting off its nuts.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, aka if you like it high leave it high, if you wanna slam it. SLAM IT!!
