This ReadyLIFT kit is a 2.25 inch front leveling kit for the 2005-2023 Toyota Tacoma, 2WD, 4WD and PreRunner. It uses fabricated steel strut extensions that mount on top of the strut assembly (Smart Strut Technology), so the springs do not need to be compressed, and it is meant to keep the factory ride. Shocks are not included.
Key features
- Fabricated steel upper strut extensions
- No spring compression required
- Differential drop spacers and skid plate spacers included
- Keeps the factory ride without adding stress to stock components
