WESTCOTT Spacer Lift Deep Dive | SHOCK VALUE S2
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
We tested the Westcott Spacer lift on our 3rd Gen Toyota Tacoma against a series of other affordable suspension kits to find out how good, or bad, it could be.
Shock Value Series 2 is out now!
• The Difference SHOCKED...

These videos are great! I built before these videos dropped. However, i did listen to breadan from a past video, opted for only the 6112/5160 combo, and swapped out my leaf pack for the setup i run. I avoided "needing" to spend 5k on a lift. For now, it works awesome. In the future, as the truck is pushed harder and a proper need arises, i will then move to a proper LT suspension lift. 🍻 thanks for saving me a few lashings from my wife, for now...
I have one of these on my trd pro just to counter the 1.5 inch of droop from adding a winch bumper. Was the cheapest way to keep the fox suspension and fix the issue. I have no complaints
I have severe front squat after installing a heavy winch. And thinking to add spacers. It already has a 2.5 aev kit on it.
can you compare different type of shocks like old school hydraulic shock vs gas charged twin tube and monotube?
I wonder how it would be different if it just had the perch collar? I know a lot of people run these on trucks like raptors and swear by them in order to preserve stock like ride and function without much compromise.
Where's the mid budget review?

Wescott claims no ride difference 😂😂😂
how is this different from a 5100 with the snap ring in the 1.5" or 0.85" position? also in the other video, what coils did you use with the 5100?

5100 are made to be used with stock coils. the higher up you put the snap ring the more preload on the spring making for a stiffer ride.

The difference is the top hat spacer, which causes issues like ball joint - coil contact. Also stock shocks are not valved for any extra sort of preload. 5100's are.

@@OverlandOutfitters any idea if the Fox TRD Pro shocks are valved to handle extra preload from the Westscott collar?
Westcott lift is a big POS.. I got it installed about 10 days ago and will be looking to replace it soon. I just made a video on it the other day. The saying “buy once, cry once” is true
Stock TRD shock with 1/2”top hat spacers it’s legit. If not go to 5100 with 885 one at bottom setting and boom 🙌🏻 preload spacer is basura.
