95.5 ext cab tacoma w/auto tranny. i have some 16" '05+ tacoma wheels and want to lift it with some 315's. i'm looking at the toytec 3" lift with spacer up front and rear AAL. i want to make sure the 315's fit without rubbing so i was also considering a small body lift for extra clearance, but i have an auto tranny so will that be a problem?? am i on the right track or is there a better way to lift without forking out a ton of cash? any input is appriciated!

 

Toytec is a great company to get lift products from and their customer service is awesome! Wheeler's OFFROAD is also another place to look considering no tax. My advice is to match your lift with what you want to do with your rig..cut corners on lift and in the end it gets more expensive, so research-the search button will get you there.

 

If they are the stock '05 taco Alloys like these, good luck with that. The offset is something like 4.5-4.75" and you will rub the upper UCA. I have got 2.5" spacers and rub like crazy with 285's. BL won't help with rubbing suspension components...

 

yea those are the rims i have...that sux that they rub even with a 2.5" spacer! looks like if i want to run anything bigger i'm gonna have to go real big on the lift or get some different wheels (which i was thinking about doing anyways). thanks for the info!

 

Lift isn't going to help with rubbing suspension components, your going to need new wheels with less backspacing or wheel spacers

 

yea i want the lift to run a taller tire. i'm kinda bummed cause i like those wheels, but it'll give me an excuse to buy the ones i really want! i'll just get something with the right offset and do the lift i planned so fit the taller tire.

so does anybody have info on body lifts for trucks with auto tranny??

 

I was gonna put on new shoes today 315's on the Runner, but its obvious that the backspacing is too much and the frickin things wouldn't even bolt up the tires were so wide, Lol. So I'm in the market for new wheels or some wheel spacers. The back spacing of the stockies on my Runner are like 4.5 also.
