Haha, people from overseas always ask us where we are located hence the specifics. But look out for the next one, I will mention planet Earth all for you!
It improves ride quality by adding caster to the suspension cycle. You also improved articulation and maximize the performance of your shocks/springs/coilovers as well. So I'd definitely say it's a big plus and do it. Some set ups actually require UCA, just know what you need before doing it. Good luck over there!
Most people leave the spare tire alone, even if they’re getting larger tires, it all comes down to personal preferences if you want to spend that extra for switching the spare as well. As for when you get a “flat” you can temporarily run 3 larger tires and 1 smaller (spare) tire, ever see a sedan or other smaller suv’s with one flat tire? The donut tires are wayyy smaller than the others, it’s enough time for you to take in in the shop to get that flat fixed.
Most people leave the spare alone unless they have a tire carrier. Some people force a larger size at the factory location after cutting and making it fit, which we don't do because it's not the "proper" way to do it. Some even leave a larger size deflated at the factory location and air up with an onboard compressor. But you can always use a stock size spare to get yourself somewhere safe to replace it just fine.
@@88ROTORS You shouldn't tell people its okay to do that its completely irresponsible and dangerous. If you're running 33s or 35s on a trail and you think your stock spare is gonna get you home without shredding your diff you're crazy. If you have an open diff I wouldn't even recommend it cause even they still get a little rattle snakey when you do. If you ever have a rear tire go flat OFF the trail swap a tire from the front to the rear, and put the spare in the front. Do not under any circumstances put it in 4 wheel while you do this. You're better off getting a full to size spare and making the thing fit under there bend the brackets or cut the metal you'll thank yourself later. If you can't fit still you probably run something close to a 37, and at that point you'd be better off getting a tire rack for your bed.
Hi, I have a 2021 Toyota Tacoma off road and was wondering if the set up I’m purchasing will be fine to fit the 285/70R17 tires and my wheels are 17x8.5 with O offset. - Bilstein 6112 Front - Bilstein 5160 Rear - SPC UCA - Icon Add a leaf
No, you need a true 3” lift with cab mount chop,. Fender trim to clear 33”s bill Stein gives a max of 2.5” at top notch, but even then you are compressing spring to the max setting, best to get ome or eibach lift springs and keep on first notch. You can drive it, but will definitely rub fully stuffed at full lock . The cmc will fix that Evan at 2.5’ lift
@@qra130 so it’s looking like I would have to do a CMC in order to fit 33’s. That was something I wanted to avoid since I’m not sure if it will void warranty in some way.
@@qra130 interesting, I watch these videos all the time and they only mention doing cmc on some of the truck and others they don’t. They also install 33’s on pretty much all the Tacoma’s they work on. Hopefully 88rotors can reply and let me know what they do in detail to fit 33’s.
@@antonioochoa1595 i have 2 Tacoma’s , 2009 and 2018, both have 33”s both needed cmc and pinch weld along with fender trim, my methods do stick out of fender slightly so that makes the clearance worse, with 2.5” lift i would still rub when fully stuffed at full lock, had to go 3” lift to do hard off roading, yes your buddy with the trd pro can do 33”s and drive around fine, but have him take his mall crawler out to do some off roading, turn wheel all the way to the left go in reverse and fully compress the suspension over a rock or obstacle and I absolutely guarantee he will rub!
These lifts and upsizing to a 285, in my opinion is not necessary. But it will definitely help. 285's aren't really that much larger than stock. My guesstimate would be anywhere near 95% of people that upsize to 285's DO NOT regear.
That's about 2.75" and definitely looks thrown off at 9:00 because that's when we just lowered it to the ground. Once you cycle the syspension and turn the wheel left and right, it goes down about an inch.
There's always going to be an unnecessary comment/assumption. Truth is, most of these guys actually get this work done because they want to get into the hobby: go overland and/or hit some offroad trails. The Toyota truck scene has grown tremendously in the last 15 years. We see a ton on the trails these days. Some guys even go with stock suspension, believe it or not. So I'm not sure why this comment was necessary. Thanks for the comment!

Hi, wondering what the total cost is on the first and second Tacoma setup? I have a Calvary Blue Tacoma Off Road long bed model.
Clickbait wanted to see the white one
The white truck was the best in the bunch but it had a split second of coverage, by far outclassed the rest!!!
The white truck is the only reason I clicked on the video. Click bait.
Wrong tire size in the title. video shows 285 70 17
That quicksand Tacoma has the best tire and wheel setup. Love your work. Great job!
Glad you like that one. Thank you for your kind words!
Keep up the great work. It all goes well, the boys and I will be driving out to you guys next year🤞
What do you do for clients who live on the east coast ?
Do you guys do re-gears?
Please add "on planet Earth 🌏 " when you give the shop location 😆
Haha, people from overseas always ask us where we are located hence the specifics. But look out for the next one, I will mention planet Earth all for you!
Can get a quote for the same set up as that TRD sport that you guys did?
does replacing upper arm control makes lifted Tacoma have smooth ride?

@@88ROTORS thank you for your kind reply
So you guys did the 6112 and 5100 in the rear?
No cab mount chop and running 285’s on 5100’s with 2.5” of lift ? It’ll rub right?
When people switch out their tires do they also switch out the spare or leave it? If not what happens if you get a flat?
Most people leave the spare tire alone, even if they’re getting larger tires, it all comes down to personal preferences if you want to spend that extra for switching the spare as well.

Wouldn’t rear differential wear out with different size tires?

Beautiful trucks guys good job
Thanks 👍
I'm from Washington. Loser your shop. What does it take to have some work done on my 2022 sequoia nightshade?
You guys do trd pro grills for 4runners?
That's nice lift
Great video
Thanks!
How much for the red wheel n set up kit???
What model ome springs you guys using ?
No cab mount chop?
The white Tacoma outside with the after market bumper, is that the taco that has 285/80 17 ?
The one on the thumbnail? That's one of our guy's. He's on 35's.
@@88ROTORS I see, I thought there was gonna be a taco with those tires.
@@88ROTORS what brand do those wheels called?
I thought they were 255/80r17 aka Pizza Cutter tires?
Please let us know what the rim size is along with the brand name. Thanks.

Anyone know what wheels are on the white Tacoma at 3:54
Should the tacoma be regeared after one of these lifts?
That’s the most important answer that I would like to know.
It’s not necessary, but it will help improve the driving experience. It will keep it from feeling so sluggish
If anything, just drive with the ect button on and save the money

8:40 what aal are you guys using? And how much of lift does it give?
Don’t use skyjacker leafs, they are way to soft, I learned the hard way
@@titirititiri6360 the AAL on 8:40 is Skyjacker? If so, how do you know?
@@GhettoFabulous670 i have no idea what he is using, I’m just saying In general. Don’t use sky jacker, they suck
Yo click bait, I wanted to see deets on the white taco on the front page.
What’s the height with that lift? At 9:00
That's about 2.75" and definitely looks thrown off at 9:00 because that's when we just lowered it to the ground. Once you cycle the syspension and turn the wheel left and right, it goes down about an inch.
@@88ROTORS thanks for the info. Keep
Up the great work and vids !
FIRST
To bad I’m East coast
90%of these trucks will never see real dirt or mud! Just for show I’d say!
Why ?
Most likely sand and dry dirt. It is California after all. 🙂 I used to take my Jeep up to Saddleback mountain. Good times.
@@andymacabulos8670 why not?
