About this kit

3.5-Inch Lift Kit with M1 Struts, fitment-checked

Rough Country 74240RED is a 3.5-inch lift kit for compatible 2005-2023 Toyota Tacoma models. The kit pairs M1 loaded struts up front with an M1 monotube shock pair out back and adds red forged upper control arms rated for 3.5 inches of lift. Minor cutting is required, and it does not fit 5-lug wheel, T/X Baja, or TRD Pro trucks.

This 3.5-inch lift kit for the 2005-2023 Toyota Tacoma ships as a four-piece package: the M1 loaded strut pair, M1 monotube rear shocks, red forged upper control arms, and the strut kit box. Fitment covers listed 4WD and RWD submodels, but T/X Baja and TRD Pro trucks are excluded because they already carry a 1-inch factory lift, and trucks on 5-lug wheels are out as well. Plan on minor cutting during the install. A carrier-bearing drop bracket is advised on trucks with a two-piece rear driveshaft. A downloadable installation guide is available.
