Arrow How many people have a 3" lift?

Im gonna get a spacer lift pretty soon. I think there is no question that i should get a Toytec lift, but i just need a little more confidence before i buy the lift.

1) Hows the lift treating you? (ride stiffness?)

2) Any maintenance issues? (wear and tear) (noises?? aka squeeking)

3) Which toytec lift do you have 3" Pro Basic Kit or 3" Basic Kit?

4) Did anyone get a spacer lift other than toytec?

5) What wheel/tire combo do you have?

5) PICTURES PLEASE!

I have a 2.5in in front and a 1.5in in the back. Daystar makes a kit with the spacers in the front and the blocks for the rear. I used the stock shocks and 285/75/16 BFK AT/KO tires and 16in polished aluminum wheels. I ordered the lift from truckxessories.com and the wheels/tires from sportztrailers.com

I don't have pics but I'm very happy with it. Ride is still great, a little stiffer but not bad at all. No maintance yet. need to get it alligned since the lift but that's it. I woul recommend this set up to anyone! Hope this helps.

1) Ride is stiffer with stock TRD shocks, but not bad at all IMO.
2) None so far after 13,000 miles, alignment needed after install
3&4) I have the Revtek kit with AAL and diff drop spacers
5) 285/75/16 Nitto Terragrapplers, 16x8 Ivan Stewart TRD wheels. Some minor wheel weel trimming needed to minimize rubbing.
