I can’t drive a Tacoma to small for me but I’m impressed with your meticulous work on each and every Tacoma you work on. I haven’t missed an episode yet.
I would like to see the transmission rebuilt. With the extra torque from the diesel it would probably make sense. Nice build so far!
One of the best trucks ever built, and your making it even better. good work.
don't look now but your dedication and dexterity are showing. Being able to hold the camera and start the threads on a bolt is amazing. Keep up the great videos.
Haha that’s the hardest part of the job 😂
That Tocama truck is looking awesome I'm really enjoying the show
When flipping the bushes would that not have messed with the body lines not matching?🤷♂️. Loving the build 👌
No flipped the other way would drop the cab 1/2”
Another great vid. I am even more inspired to customize my Tacoma.
Great segment as always. Love the build ❤️
At 2:46 it looks like the body line on the cab/bed was off before the lift was installed.
Could be!
Every Toyota body lift I did was just a puck spacer. Those were all 84-89 trucks done in the 90s. These new modern trucks are different. Lol. We always did 2 or 3” body lifts.
Sure post up the gearbox rebuild these videos are great one of my fav channels 🤙
Would love to see the transmutation work done. I love the content! Keep it up!
So is the daystar a compete kit that also replaces the standard cab mount bushings? I was gonna buy a Energy Suspension cab mount bushing kit as my OEM bushings are toast. Do I need both or just the DayStar?
Looks good at that height. Trans rebuild the best way to go.
Good job man keep up the good work love your videos
Up here in Back Bacon Land ( Canada ) we use Hockey pucks!!
Get lots of Free Pucks at games !!
Ehh... You can cut them thinner if you need that....
the lift looks noice
Can't wait to see what happens next!
You can always add some large washers to shim the mounts to get the body lines straight. On my F250, I had to cut some of the poly bushings to get the cab to sit right with the bed. With the body lift, are you going to raise the transmission more? It could help with engine angle.
I could! I am happy with the angle of the engine now!
You can tap those 6" bolts for more thread....too 👍
Rebuild the trans, minus well go all out at this point. Very well done so far
I know you sold this truck awhile back, but I am curious to know how long did it take you to install the 3 inch body lift on your truck.
Nice work Austin.
Looks really good.
Nice Job 👍
What size tire can you fit with just the body lift please height and width?
What tdi did you use
I have a 3rd gen runner with 164k when I got it at 129k I thought the head gasket was leaking but I didn’t know for sure well I had the water pump replaced an they flushed the system because they said there was rust but I’m thinking it was head sealer now I don’t know what I should do with it
Makes me miss my yota. 🥺
Make’s a nice difference
What about trimming the height of the bed mounts a bit? To level everything out?
How much was it when ya rebuilt the trans on the old green truck?
what engine is that?
Sick Build!!! where can I order that steering shaft spacer?
If you rebuild the trans might as well film it. Would be worth while 👍🏻
You can probably hog out the mount brackets and get the bumpers back to the right height.
That bumper gap would be a great Led light space??
Did u notice a slighter stiffer steering after the body lift and installing that steering rod spacer?
Did the same daystar 1" body lift and i have stiffer steering now. Nothing bad, no weird noises or anything. Just notice steering is stiffer
No I don’t notice that at all!
🔥🔥🔥
Does it frustrate you that these kits don't come with metric hardware? Seems ridiculous that they add additional complexity of drilling out holes when they could have sourced the same diameter bolt.
Yeah a little annoying!
Did you also do a suspension lift ?
I bet if you tightened the nuts on the bolt they will smesh/squish enough to get a full nut on them?? I'm sure they should lock on properly?? But hey i'm just watchin' !! You could be correct ok !
pros n cons for body lift.. thank u
Did you get a new frame
👏👏👏👏👏
Rebuild the transmission bro that way u will know it’s done right and runs good with no leaks
CB, what does a transmission build have to do with a bodylift are you confused?
@@BurtBowers Austin said to comment down below if we wanna see him rebuild the transmission. Do you even watch his videos or you just troll comments?
The most rust free Toyota in the history of time.
My personal opinion you should had went with a 3" bodylift since you went through all the work removing things, you would had gained enough lift with a 3" bodylift that you could had increased bigger tire size without any rubbing most people run off to get suspension lifts thinking they are going to fit on 33" tires till they realize they willbe trimming & chopping to get 33" tires on without rubbing, best setup is to do 3" bodylift & a 3" suspension it will give the clearance to put 33" tires on without the rubbing & no chopping or trimming required.
have you put on a 3” body lift? if so was there any issues?
good
If toyota had just made wider fender openings we would not need to do as much of this
omg, is that a VW TDI engine in there??
he has take of muscle!
👍👊
not a big fan of body lifts but this one looks kind of sick might have to put on my truck
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Does not fit models with automatic transmission.
So sick dude!!!!!!!
Had a body lift on my 99 Tacoma and every cab mount hole ripped and the whole cab would shift over at every turn scary as fuck. Had to re weld all the cab hols and dropped it back down to stock body lifts are never a good idea
The other two trucks that he has done there wasn’t any issues
I’ve had multiple body lifts on Toyota’s and never had an issue. I know a guy who did a 6” body lift on his for about 2 yrs. then swapped a 350 into it and built his own custom lift.
Sounds like your cab mounts were weak to start with.
if your thinking a lot about it then you know it needs to be done
😱 OMG...That body line mismatch ?? 😉 OCD MUCH??
If your having minor problems with the tranny it might be worth doing it all. Also you have to wonder about cost??? Looking great. God Bless
👍🏽👍🏽
Rebuild the transmission.
I would say something is off you probably didn't need to invert it, that's y your body lines off
If I didn’t flip them, it would net 1/2” lift and they would really be off!
I'd give a big thumbs down on this kit too if for no other reason than shipping imperial size hardware on a kit that only works on a metric vehicle - especially on a $200+ kit. All the other issues just add to the thumbs down. The only plus is the spacer for the steering.
السلام عليكم
Rebuild transmission
Rebuild it
Rebuild it sir.
Rebuild the transmission... you won't be happy if you don't. I see changes... something.. you are not going to live with things being out of alignment. I know I wouldn't be happy with it.

I've never understood the point to or the benefit of a body lift. Why not just go an inch and a half higher with the suspension lift??? Seems like a lot of work to add stress to lines and connections. Pointless.
I think motor/tranny clearance and angles is the main reason he is doing one
These yota ifs are limited to 3 inches of suspension lift before things start to bind.
Also this was done for hood clearance after his motor swap.
@aldoavak9 clearance , eng, tires, trans. Very common in eng swaps to do a body lift.
