a 6 inch lift will not make your truck perform better off road so dont waste your time

 

yep stock it should have, shocks and torsion bars in the front, and leaf springs and shocks in the rear.

 

poor kid, i hope he didnt get hurt with all that weight on him lol

 

What are you trying to say? All the weight on him? What the ? If your not here to help me out go harass someone else because i dont want to hear it

 

alright dude chill... he said "2 inch leveling kid" instead of kit...its a joke

 

hahaha oops my bad man.. i am chill, I had a "cumminsforum" account and all you would hear is stupid remarks when asking questions. I did learn a lot from that site though haha

 

lol its cool.

heres my advice, find out what size tires you want to run, tire size is most important because the bigger the tire, the higher your axle is, wich is the lowest part of the truck and will drag the most. once you know what size tire you want, figure out how much lift you will need so your tires dont rub. it looks better in my oppinion to go with the least amount of lift so theres not a large gap between the tires and wheel wells, but then later if you decide to go with bigger tires you gotta get a whol new lift kit, and they aint cheap. so i guess its like gambling, but i hope i helped some.

 

Well once i need tires i plan on getting 33/10.5 because i heard they wont rub.. but once i get a lift i want about 35s

 

your lucky lol, my truck has the solid axle, the largest i can go is 31x10.5 i

 

haha i donno.. i heard solid axle is the way to go, but i also heard these trucks are almsot industructable

 

lol, yeah apparently solid axle is the big thing, so many peple are saying how luck i am to have a truck that came from the factory with a sa. lol and all toyotas are industructable, my truck takes hits way better then anything else, and so far im at 230k with O% maintenance from the p/O since 2001

 

Ok man i looked at my truck today, and someone said my truck has springs? No it does not, it has leafs in the rear with shocks, and only shocks up front, or i am completly blind and some how missed these springs? I am pretty sure it doesnt have springs..

 

and are there any special parts needed to extend my diff breathers?

 

You have leafs in the rear. And torsion bars up front. Shocks all around.

By springs they meant leaf springs, not coil springs.

 

well shoot, haha kk. Well i need shocks in the rear, and i think i might do the front too just so its done with.. I was curious is there any shock that i can buy that will lift my truck up a bit? Any one have a link on how to crank my torsion bars?

 

Shocks will give no lift.

And try a search. If you cant find it through yotatech, do a google search and type yotatech at the end. Example: "How to adjust torsion bars yotatech"

 

Ok I do not understand ifs at all then... If the shocks dont lift it what does?? There are NO SPRINGS in the front? So what lifts up the front then?? :S:S

 

the torsion bars. They are a spring, but it works off of torsion (twisting force) rather than compression (compacting force).

If you look under your rig you will see a bar coming out of the back of your upper a arm, it runs back just under half way to the back of your rig.

 

Ok, you may want to back track and reread this thread dude, cause now you are asking questions that we answered already.

When you say springs, you mean coils. The toyota pickup you have don't have coils, it has torsion bars. It has the same function of keeping the tires planted on the ground. The shocks dampen the bumps and stuff.

So front should have Shocks and Torsion bars, Rear should have Shocks and Leaf Springs.

The truck doesn't rest on the shocks alone, it also rests on the bracketry of the Independent Front Suspension (IFS). So longer shocks won't lift your ride and their purpose isn't to lift the ride it is to make a more comfortable one.

A couple different lift options off the top my head.

The suspension lift just adds another bracket to your IFS making it taller. Like adding another story to a building. Usaully adds a Block under the leaf springs lifting the rear the same height. Depends on what kit you get.

The body lift is just like spacers where the body sits on the frame making the body higher.

Balljoint spacer, kind of self explanatory. Might be your cheapest bet. Balljoints are only up front though so you may need to look for options to lift your rear of the truck to match like new leaf springs etc.

Hope this helps

 

i have the same exact truck as you man. a '92 automatic v6. i lifted mine by using a 3" body lift, 1.5" bj spacers and i cranked the torsion bars some. this set up gave me around 5-6" of lift and i can easily run 35's. this set up was under 500 bucks for everything. being 16 this was deffantly the most affordable way to get my truck to fit 35's.
