Lifting a 2016 Trail (KDSS)

I am looking for help finding someone that has lifted their new Trail . I am finding offload shops here in San Diego that say you can not lift it because the KDSS . I have also seen kits online for it . Anyone know anything about this ? I want 3" and 285/70/17 tires . Please let me know thanks all .

 

I have seen your thread and have ordered my lift kit today . I am doing the same lift but i did order a set of the TRD rims and Toyo OC tires . I will update with some before and after pics. like yours . Thanks for posting and letting me know it works .

 

I have been told the same thing but I did researched further mostly in 4Runner forums and pulled the trigger today. I learned plenty from these forums. I put in very inexpensive 3" lift from Revtec and 285/70/17 Duratrac. The tire shop offered to install it and very nice one stop shopping. End result was awesome and I couldn't be happier.

 

Yup, Ive got a 2016 TEP with KDSS and there is a monumental amount of BS out there stating one can't lift with KDSS.

I'll be lifting mine soon. My feeling is this is from all these local shops who don't understand the system, then the rumor spreads....

 

Newbie here, got a 2016 TEP, how do you like the ride on TOYTEC ? Did you keep the stock UCA's ?

 

Been doing some research so your lift is the TOYTEC 5100? Retail was 909 ? Im a mechanic and work on heavy equipment but somewhat terrified to install the lift, did you do it yourself ? And do you make if it voids the warranty ?

Just installed some infabs today looks pretty nice

 

Do you have to tweak with the KDSS during or after the lift, wanting to go 3" with an Icon setup. Thanks!

 

thanks Havik!

 

Thank you so much for this write up!!! ive beeen trying to figure out if i want to buy the 5100 kit or the ultimate kit. this just resolved my hesitance!!!
