Installing your lift in your 2022 Tundra 

Here's the torque specs for everything needed: Front & Rear Sway Bar End Links - 55 ft lb Front Strut Top Nuts - 33 ft lb Front Shock Bottom to Control Arm - 122 ft lb Lower Ball Joint To Steering Knuckle - 192 ft lb Lower Control Arm to Frame - 207 ft lb Rear Top Shock Nut - 37 ft lb Rear Bottom Shock Bolt - 72 ft lb Track Bar to Axle - 103 ft lb Front Shock to Strut Top Hat - 48 ft lb 🤘🤙

This video was extremely helpful in getting my lift installed in my Tundra. The only thing that I would add is that when doing the passenger side rear coil spring spacer, we noted that the rear brake lines (not ABS) became very tight and we could not comfortably lower the rear axle enough without removing the various brake clamping bolts from the axle. Otherwise, this video was instrumental (for me at least) in getting this lift installed. Thanks for the great product!

I’m not even lifting my truck, but watched anyway. Interesting to see how it’s done.

I worked with tools for 35 years and it kills me when people call tools by brand name. Like crescent wrench instead of adjustable wrench. Glad to see you have your shit together.

Great video, very helpful. My only comments are as follow for DIY installers: the front lower spindle bolts are very tricky to get in, you have to align the upper aluminum piece up with the bottom knuckle, and I did one myself, the other required another person to hold the wheel end and move it and tilt so the holes lined up while i slowly screwed the bolts in, honestly it’s a real SOB by yourself. I do agree with putting some red loktite on the nuts and bolts shown (and using a GOOD torque wrench on all), my front sway bar nuts almost came off after a couple short drives, so I added more LT and retorqued them. Some say they had a hard time compressing springs, i used the OMT kit from Amazon & it was stressed but worked, just be patient and grease the tool bolts heavily so they don’t lock up & turn slowly with a gun. My other suggestion is to mark all the bolts and nuts removed during this install with a paint pen (Amazon) after install so you can see if any of them move after doing some drives, and then recheck all in 500 miles then again at 1,000. This is something Wescott shows in one of their other videos when they do an install at their shop in Phoenix, great pro tip. Lastly, if you can afford it, I highly recommend getting Wescott TRD full shock lift kit, it gives you more travel, and it rides like a dream, I believe better than stock without having so much lean, and not so mushy. Using “C” or “D” load tires (NOT E) are a must, they help by not having such stiff side walls, more plush…this install is not crazy hard, but even this guy makes it look easier than it is- i would say full 6-10 hours is realistic, watch all the Wescott install videos, there are tips in all of them, including using a ratchet strap to line up track bar bolt, just lowering the truck to ground won’t do it, ask me how how I know 😂

Thank you guys for all that great information! Waiting to get my Truck. Probably will get this lift kit before the truck. But will be ready. Keep on sharing gentlemen!!!

Awesome video as always Jeff. Super informative and I love how you label the tools and organized/presented them for the video

Totally doable. Easier than when I did my 99 XJ with old rusted bolts 😅. Looks easy when everything is brand new lol. Thanks for sharing

This video was extremely helpful

Does the front radar unit require recalibration after this lift is installed?

I watched your video, ordered the kit which shipped almost immediately and installed it myself in my garage without an impact Gun. Everything went as demonstrated in this video. The next morning I had an alignment done and installed 35/12.5/20 on my TRD stock rims. The front end is real bouncy almost like the springs are too compressed. Additional, Please don’t think you can do with an alignment because mine was way off!

Outstanding job description. Thanks

Any concern about the added angle on the CV boots? I installed a leveling/small lift kit on my 03 tundra and it came with a 1" differential spacer to reduce the angle on the CV boots. P.S. Great video and looks like a great product!! Thanks!!

You guys are awesome 😎

Outstanding video, glad you shared the tools and sizes, what kind of long 24" rachet wrench are you using and brand?, Need one of those.

This video is AWESOME!.

You guys are awesome! So excited for my kit to arrive in the mail!!!! Are you guys finding that, when installing method wheels, the provided lugs are the correct size or are you having to use the oem ones? I just ordered some 317’s with lug nuts but not sure they gave me the right size.

Outstanding video. Gives me the confidence to order a lift from you and to install it myself. One item not mentioned during the video was any requirement to torque down the nuts and bolts. Everything was tightened by hand. If we wanted to match factory specs, where would we obtain this? Thank you for putting out some outstanding videos on the new 2022 Tundra.

Does removing the rubber isolater from the bottom spring perch cause any increases in NVH?

Does this void the manufacturer warranty?

Solid lift!

Great Video!!!! Thanks for posting this!!! I’m guessing if you have air suspension in the rear there’s no “lift” for that set up? Thanks

The top shim plate is .5" thick and strut bolts aren't long enough for the nuts to get full thread contact. I had to put mine on a lathe and turn it down to .450" to be safe. I now have half a thread sticking above the nut. Seems sketchy to not be able to fully engage a nut

This would be 100/100 if it included torque specs 🤙

Do you have the link for the spring compressor tool?

Where can we find the alignment specs. Please post here perhaps if not already @westcott designs Thanks 🙏

How about some Tow Hooks up front ?

Very nice video but it would have been to see the results, maybe next time add a short segment to show before and after results.

Purchased your 3/1 kit here. Was able to complete the install except one portion… the last portion. The track bar is not lining up to reconnect for whatever reason. After lowering car back down the distance is even further. Is this a common issue? Any recommendations or advice?

Will you be doing a 2/1 or a 1.5/5 for those that don’t want a 3/1 lift??

Great video just a question is the towing capability affected at all with this lift and 37 inch tires?

Can these lifts be used on a platinum model with the air lift system?

What's the labor for doing front and rear?

Why not offer a threaded spring porch with locking rings to allow for different ride heights? True coil over rather than a fixed preload. Do you find this setup creates a stiffer ride since you’ve compressed the spring more and you’ve shortened the stroke? Or do the smaller diameter wheels and taller side wall make up for it? Regardless the parts look great.

Man my place TE Motorsports said there was nothing made for the rear yet. They put a 2 inch on the front and left the rear alone for now. Front is slightly higher maybe 1/2 inch. How can I order that rear kit to level it better now.

Hey guys, just got my spacers installed and super stoked on the outcome. Oddly my lane assist sensors are no longer working. What’s the best way to trouble shoot this without going to the dealership?

Are you guys hearing of issues compressing the coils on the TRD offroad trucks with at home spring compressors?

Do you need upper control arms with this lift?

I got my kit installed last night. What’s the plastic clip for?

I guess you don’t have extend any brake lines? I would think you lift and extend the travel of the suspension you would have to do the same with the brake system?

Can I install this on tundra with rear air suspension?

How do you do this with a 1794 edition that has the air ride? Just for the front. Thanks

is it going to void the warranty on the new tundra? pleat let me know thanks and extend warranty

Is this the same process for the Tundra TRD PRO?

Are the tundras requiring alignments after installing from what you are seeing?

I'm curious why you guys chose to increase preload and a spacer to lift the front instead on a larger spacer on top. Did you find the front was to soft from factory?

Any truth behind rumors that your kits void the warranty on 2022+ Tundras?

With this particular set up can you wear 37" x12.5"?

Any chance a 285/75r18 Yoko XAT (measured 35x11.5) fits without a lift?

Will you guys sell just the top shim plate? I am only looking to do a slight 1/2" -3/4" front lift to get it close to level but still have room for sag in the back when loaded. I don't wanna go full level as it looks stupid once u get some weight in the back

do u have something for Kia Carnival, looking for a 1 or 2" lift.

Is this the installation video to use for a 2023 Tundra (Limited TRD Pkg short bed)

Is there a a work around for rear airbags?

Would anything be different for '24?

Is the process basically the same for the TRD Pro?

Can this be installed with the AirLift LoadLifter 5000? I assume it can, but want to verify.

Have u ever seen on a rough country level kit ,the cheap 100$ kit with just strut spacers pop out passenger cv axle at differential? Its only a 1.75 lift, wondering why it did that and what can i do to prevent it from happening again. Seems bump stop spacer is only for up travel stop, not full droop travel down?

I need some help, I installed this kit on my tundra but I can't find anyone to do the alignment not even toyota has the 2022 alignment update, how did you guys do it?

Are there torque specs available?

can a lift kit be done to a 22 tundra SR model. haven't seen one anywhere

Westcott Designs. How Can I install this and not void my factory warranty? I want to get one, but dont want to mess with the warranty stuff. Thanks for any information.

Ballpark how much to have this lift installed at a shop?

How much lift are you getting with this, also, this changes the angle of the drive shaft to the rear ends and transmission some is it a concern for pre wear on these items?

Did you have to install extended brake lines?

Once I received my kit that I purchased last week, I’ll have a auto shop work on it. How long do you think it should take them and do y’all have instructions for them?

Am I sacrificing a lot with going with the raw kit vs anodized? Will raw wear down alot faster ?

should've pulled the cab and replaced the bad turbos while you were at it...

what is the install time on this lift?

Nice leaving parts out I'm sure the engineer at toyota that decided that rubber insulator need to be there is not nearly as smart as you

Should never do any mods like that to a new truck. Gonna cost you problems in the future for sure
