Nice camera work. Shoot the "before" at a down angle to make it look small and the "after" at an up angle to make it look big. lol

I had to update Johns post. I finnaly bit the bullet and lifted my Tundra. I did the same. I did a 3 inch lift and 33 inch Goodyear Dura Trac tires. The truck finally looks like a truck 😀

What brand is the lift? There's a guy here at work that's looking to lift a 2000 chevy in about the same way. He's looking for something he can do himself.

The lift I used was a 3 inch "Ready Lift SST" The only difference between the lift I used and the one John used was where the front spacer went. John's lift required you to put the 3 inch spacer between the top of the spring and the top of the strut. This required having to take the strut down to a shop that had a strut compressor for the installation. My spacer goes on top of the strut so no need for a strut compressor.

If he does it himself, I would highly recommend air tools. I would not have wanted to do it with out them.
