Great video! I will 100% not be using this lift after watching this. Not paying $1200 and have to drill into the frame and be dealing with holes not lining up. Plus this literally does nothing to help with actual off-roading except for ground clearance. I want clearance and some additional articulation. Coil over lift it is. Sucks that it will cost double. Lol. Thanks for the vid though man! That was super helpful!

@AutoDetour
@AutoDetour 2 года назад
Sorry. Super late on this reply. I bought the wheels and tires used and that’s just the size that was on them. 12.50 should fit too. You’ll have to modify the running board and fender liner either way.

19:52 has me thinking about if you could add a second "trip beam" to the top of your door that would prevent the door from opening if you have a car up on the lift in the same space as the door tracks
@AutoDetour
@AutoDetour 2 года назад
That’s a good thought… I can put the garage door up with the truck on the lift, but definitely not this one. I actually unplugged the opener while it was on there because I was afraid someone would push the button.

Nice work. We also have a 2018 Platinum Reserve Armada. I think this is the first lift kit we have seen with it. If we decide to keep the Admada...This might be something to tackle. We are debating wheather we will keep it or buy another Sequoia(2021 or 2022) or LX 570 (2020 or 2021) Both my wife and I like the Sequoia(we have a 2008) better. We have had a few minor glitches with the Armada already, and the Nissan delaership we bought it from is worthless and left a bad taste that cannot be fixed.

Probably a dumb question but how's the road noise and difference in fuel economy? Notice a big difference?
@AutoDetour
@AutoDetour 2 года назад
Not a dumb question. The fuel economy seems to be about the same. 12-13 mostly around town driving. Road noise is louder only because the tires were used when I bought them and definitely weren’t worn evenly. Hums pretty good. Lol. With nice new tires, I’m sure it’d be the same amount of road noise as stock. Just depends on the tires.
@hakunamatata6464
@hakunamatata6464 2 года назад
Hey. Good to see lift kits on the Armadas. Question...... with this being a 3 inch lift, any issues correcting toe/camber during an alignment? I knew of someone that did a 2.5-3 inch lift and the adjusters were already maxed after their alignment. They were chewing up their tires. Wondering if you experienced any of that... Thanks in advance.
@AutoDetour
@AutoDetour 2 года назад
No issues with alignment. The rear geometry stays the same since the whole suspension assembly drops down and the front aligned just fine with upper control arms that come with the kit.
