I'm thinking about adding a front end leveling kit on my 2017 Off Road. I don't really know a lot about them so I'm wondering how it affects the ride? How much does it cost? And any other info would be greatly appreciated
 
It's complicated. What do want to have when you are done. Do you want pretty, or do you want capable. I went with capable. More money, but I'm only doing this one time.
 
"bilstein 5100's or OME, leveling kits are spacers and are junk." ;) Whippersnapper02

I have a 2017 TRD OR DCLB that has the revtek pro 40013. The off-road already has decent Bilstein's. As far as ride it will keep the stock feel and give you 3" in front and 1.5 in rear leveling the truck nicely. This will allow for 285/75/16 tires with 1.5" spacers on stock TRD OR wheels or buy aftermarket with -6 offset.
The lift is around $417 on most Web sites. A local off road shop should charge about $200 to install. If you have toyota install it they will warranty it but it will cost you about $1250 out the door.
If you do go with the revtek I'd recommend buying the ECGS bushing to install on the drivers side needle bearing. $60 from east coast gear supplies. Not a must...
Your truck might not have a needle bearing hum hum hum show up at 35mph after the lift.
If it does and toyota installled the lift they will fix it under warranty. If you do the install or have another shop do it you pick up the bill on any issues the lift might cause.

@OR17TRD Did you install new aftermarket UCA when you did the lift or were you able to get the correct alignment with the stock UCA?
 
They where able to get the correct alignment with the stock UCA. The Revtek is what the dealers in my area install and warranty. They don't do anything but install the kit which is a spacer up front and a leaf in back. The coils, UCA and shocks are all left stock. My alignment is fine.
