The Toyota Tundra has a reputation: not only is it one of the most reputable & trustworthy light truck products on the market, the Tundra also comes with a glitch that becomes obvious when adjusting your ride height.
Have you figured out what that glitch might be? Unless you have astute visual perception or a vestibular system that can pick up the most subtle inconsistencies it might go undetected. A small experiment to help you out: take a tape measure or yard stick and measure from the bottom (6 O’clock) position of your wheel (not tire!) to the highest point of your fender. Do this for each wheel, and write down the result for each measurement.
A typical outcome would be:
- Driver’s front => 32.375″
- Passenger’s front => 31.75″
- Driver’s rear => 34.0″
- Passenger’s rear => 34.25″
Does anything strike you as odd when you go back and look at these numbers?
Toyota Tundra: different ride heights - from wheel-to-wheel!
Bingo! Your Toyota Tundra ride height can vary wildly from wheel-to-wheel: it’s side-to-side front ride height has been known to vary by as much as 1.0″!
When your ride height matters and you’re planning to install a leveling kit or lift kit and you haven’t corrected for these inconsistencies beforehand, you will be recreating the issue.
Let’s say you purchase a typical ‘fixed’ lift/leveling kit or spacer, designed to provide a 2.0″ front lift. After installation your front ride height will now be 2.0″ higher than your beginning ride height: your snout will be 2.0″ higher but with the same side-to-side ride height issues, just at a new ride height.
