Lift kits vs. Collar or spacer lift First list address what a lift kit is. Here we are not talking about a leveling kit of a simple spacer / collar lift. A spacer or collar lift add a piece of metal on top of your shock pushing your suspension down. At the end the truck is "lifted" and does give you the look but IN MY OPINION is not optimal because the suspension geometry is not correct. A spacer or collar lift is the most cost effective way to get the look of a lifted truck. But the kits listed below low are suspension swaps to aftermarket shocks that will improve ride quality, lift the truck if desired, effect towing and hauling capacity, and improve handling characteristics. Bolt in Only Kits I personally have installed over 30 suspension kits across multiple cars and trucks trying different just trying different things and what not. With that being said I 100% believe spend the extra money on new springs and having a ready to go bolt in kit pre assembled is worth the money. One you dont need to mess with swapping over the front coil over spring to the new strut. Two get you all new equipment all the way around. So here we are going to keep it to kits that directly bolt into the truck. Bilstein 6112 Strut & Spring Assembled + Rear B8 5100 Shocks Set This is tried and true one of the go to kits for both on and offroad. If you order from Mudify they are pre assembled and directly bolt into the truck. They offer up to a 3in lift are rebuildable and slightly extended travel. The upgraded 2.5in strut in the front will offer a smoother ride as well better offroad performance with more fluid to move. Coming in around $1200 and you can bolt them in inside of the garage. At this price point this will only level the front of your truck and not lift the rear as rear springs are not included in this kit. But if you are looking get into a budget upgrade this is the way to do it.

This budget friendly kit comes in around $1400 fully assembled. Unlike the Bilstein kit before this does come with rear progressive springs that will lift the rear end of the truck. There are some difference here as instead of the larger 2.5 shock body you get with Bilstein you will still be getting a 2.0 shock body in the front but adding the rear springs in to offset the cost point.

You can get a set of Fox suspension for the Tundra for under $2000. This kit come in around $1800 depending on what dealer you go to. I linked Rave Offroad below as they do a lot of Tundra stuff. But Fox is a big name in the industry and the fact you can get kit like this at this price point is awesome. These also have threaded preload adjustment unlock the clip adjustment the other kits use. Definitely a kit to consider if you wanted to spend a little extra cash.

Old Man Emu has been around since the beginning of time offering top tier quality and more. This kit comes with front lift, rear springs and even Upper Control Arms! You are even able to add adjustable bump stops to the kit to help in that aspect also. If you buy from Mudify you get some awesome customer support to go along with it.

Review

Disclosure - I have been a follow of Obsessed Garage for years and use a lot of the products they test and recommended because their testing process is rigorous and straight forward. I don't have the means to do that type of testing of all the products myself.

But this product is so good I wanted to share it with yall. First you need to know you need a pressure washer and foam cannon to use it. You spray it on the truck before you even do anything else at all. You let it sit for 5 minutes and spray it off. 80% of the wash is done right there. The PH neutral formula and the activate chemicals lift the dirt off the paint and flow away. It even just melted all the dirt off the underside of my truck.

Panel Impact Ration

Ok I wanted to touch on this part because it took me a while to figure out. These are professional detailing chemicals, not just some soap you buy from amazon put it in the pressure washer and go. You must measure the chemical and dilute it properly in a foam cannon to get the results you want.

"Put 227 ml (round as needed) into your 1L foam cannon, and then top off with water to the 1L mark. You’re now using Touch-Less at a 2% panel impact ratio for your pressure washer setup."

It feels a little weird to use cooking measuring cups in the garage but makes the science part of my brain feel happy.
