Toyota Tacoma Skyjacker Suspension Install - Four Wheeler Network
If you are on a limited budget though, it may be more prudent to install a modest suspension lift and slightly larger tires because they are not only less expensive than larger tires but do not require new axle gears. No one is on a more limited budget than a high school kid, so when Wyatt’s dad offered to buy him a Skyjacker suspension for his Tacoma if Wyatt got As and Bs on his report card, he had to explain that the budget for the modifications was not... When discussing moderate lift heights, Skyjacker might not be the first name to come to mind. While it is true that the company makes lifts up to 8 inches tall for a variety of applications, that is not all they offer. Skyjacker has been in business for over 40 years and has a variety of suspension heights and options available for nearly every 4x4 on the market, including Wyatt’s Tacoma. Adding a 2-inch lift to the truck allowed fitment of 235/85R16 General Grabber AT2s. The stock suspension on the Toyota was shot, so adding inexpensive spacers above the factory struts was not an option. Instead, Skyjacker’s replacement struts were used with the stock coils in the front to retain the factory ride quality. Tacoma’s are notorious for breaking leaf springs, so although Skyjacker offers an add-a-leaf, Wyatt’s truck was upgraded with full replacement leaf springs and Skyjacker M95.
