The 3rd Generation Toyota Tundra ’22+ is a full-sized pickup that appeals to the enthusiasts who love tough and powerful trucks. This pickup truck is pretty sturdy, and extremely capable whether in street driving or off-road adventures, on top of that, it carries the signature Toyota characteristics like durability and reliability, which enthusiasts have come to appreciate from the brand. Being tough, the 22+ Toyota Tundra is the best candidate for a leveling and lift kit upgrade as they increase wheel travel, improve the truck’s aesthetic, and also the ground clearance for off-road adventures and makes it easier to fit larger tires. Leveling kits levels the front end with the back end while a lift kit is more dramatic and involved than a leveling kit.
Before we dive into the juicy stuff, we want to make a clear recommendation. With any additional lift or leveling kit over 2 inches to your Tundra, we recommend upgrading your upper control arms (also known as UCAs). Now, I hear ya, this is not a cheap recommendation, and it may seem like I’m trying to pull a fast one on ya’, but I certainly am not. You will thank me later for this. Have you ever had that friend who just got a new suspension kit for their truck and it looks so bada** sitting in the pub parking lot? Then when they drive away, everything is squeaking more than your grandma’s cabinet doors… Chances are they didn’t upgrade their upper control arms and those joints are under extreme stress from the new working angles of the suspension kinematics.
With that being said, anything more 2.5 inches, UCAs are a MUST, but we highly encourage you to do upgrades the right way and swap them out for a off-road focused UCA.
