  • Good lift kit for 03 Tacoma ST5 4x4
This lift is better then I was expected looks really good easy to install just follow the directions and I didn’t have to cut my exhaust to make it fit

  • They’re good but they do settle quick
This set up with an added leaf and an .5” rear spacer leveled the kit just right, planing on using the shackles with the a additional .5 front spacer it sit just right, I rip the Tacoma and it feel so smooth at 70mph-90 it’s good upgrade, just have to have professional for your install and pretty much eliminate all the broken ... show more

  • the setup works great for me
So far so good. 120miles on the truck with this lift kit. Rides so much nicer then it did when I got it with factory suspension at 194k miles, I installed monroe quick struts and shock with some new leafs. The monroe setup was just as bad as the worn out factory stuff. Im at 196k miles with the new rough country struts and shocks on. So much smoother and just the right amount of stuff so im not jumping around on the road. (My road is a few miles of basically a easy off road trail) btw less then 1000 miles into the monroe struts I blew a shock just driving on my road and also managed to bend a strut shock at the base. Thanks roughcountry for the decent setup yet again. ... show more
