    Had my 4Runner lifted today using the Westcott lift. Results are amazing, the trucks stance is very nice. I noticed ZERO change in the feel of the suspension

    Truck looks fantastic. I have had the Wescott lift for the Fox Suspension for a few months now and love it. Truck looks great and behaves just like stock. Enjoy!

    They have some of the best made products on the market. It's a dangerous place for me since I live 20 minutes from the shop. Jeff and his crew are some of the best people you will ever meet. Your ride looks awesome btw

    Whoever aligned your car did an awesome job. You better buy him a bottle of wine.

    Maybe a bottle of beer...I was thinking the caster numbers could be higher.

    Aftermarket UCA to increase caster.

    Yes running 285s, which I was before the lift.

    This is the Westcott TRD Pro fox suspension lift. Make sure you select the correct vehicle year on their website.

    I had a local installer pick up my truck and drop it off, and align it. All in was 4 hours.

    I just put them on lol. I had some rubbing but it was only at full lock which didn't really matter to me.

    Looks fantastic, stance looks good, (at least I think… black on black in shadow makes me have to look extra hard lol :p)

    How high was the lift?

    Wescott lifts seem to get a fair amount of very positive comments. Why? I thought these were a variation of spacer lifts? Normally, too much lifting via spacers can cause problems by allowing the UCA to droop too far, which can lead to that ball joint failing, or the UCA to collide with the shock body. Maybe wescott solves this problem with their lift…Is that why westcotts variation of lift is better regarded?


    Nope! Call them up and have them fix it. Could be installation error…like insufficient torque on the lower control arms, or incorrect install of the wescott components, or torquing the control arm bolts while still on the lift…etc. Spraying wd40 anywhere you think there is a squeak will be a mess and isnt good for rubber. Have them check that the UCA isnt touching anything on full extension while they’re at it.

    They have some of the best products on the market (made in house). You don't deal with some large company who treats you like a number instead they treat you like family. Customer service is top notch. Any issues or dissatisfaction with product and owner Jeff will speak to you personally.

    Talk to your installer. My truck makes no new noises since getting the Wescott lift. It behaves just like it did from new, only taller and level.
