EVIL ENERGY 2 in Leveling Lift Kit for Toyota Tacoma & 4Runner - 2 in

In this review the EVIL ENERGY 2 in Leveling Lift Kit is examined for owners who want a simple, reliable way to raise the front of select Toyota trucks and SUVs by roughly 2 in. The bottom line: this kit is for DIYers who want added ground clearance and the option to run slightly larger tires without cutting or disassembling struts. It stands out because it is forged from 6061-T6 aluminum and uses CNC processing and 10.9 grade bolts for durability and accurate fit, which makes installation straightforward and achievable in about 1-2 hours.

Key Features

• Compatibility: Fits 2005-2023 Tacoma (6 lug only), 2003-2023 4Runner and 2007-2015 FJ Cruiser, giving broad coverage for common Toyota chassis.
• Material: Forged from 6061-T6 aluminum alloy so the spacers are sturdy yet lightweight for long-term corrosion resistance when anodized.
• Precision machining: CNC automatic processing provides accurate hole alignment so installation is easier and reduces the chance of fitment issues.
• Hardware quality: Uses 10.9 grade premium bolts with anodized surface and heat treatment to resist corrosion and handle suspension loads.
• Function: Raises the front about 2 in to improve ground clearance and allow fitting larger rims and tires for a more aggressive stance.
• Installation: Can be completed in 1-2 hours without cutting, drilling, or strut/coil disassembly, with included instructions to guide the process.

Who It's For

This kit is aimed at owners of compatible Toyota Tacomas, 4Runners and FJ Cruisers who want a modest front lift to improve approach angle and fit slightly larger tires while keeping a factory-style ride. It appeals to DIY mechanics who value a fast, no-drill installation and prefer durable machined aluminum components.

It is not for people seeking large suspension lifts, full off-road suspension overhauls, or those who need exact measured lift equal to the spacer thickness; due to suspension geometry the actual raise is about 2 in and not a direct 1:1 ratio to kit thickness. Professional alignment after installation is recommended.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Durable 6061-T6 forged aluminum construction for strength and reduced weight.
• CNC-machined parts and high-grade 10.9 bolts for accurate fit and corrosion resistance.
• Quick, straightforward installation in 1-2 hours with no cutting or strut disassembly.
• Provides usable front lift to run larger tires and gain better clearance for off-road obstacles.

Cons

• Lift is approximately 2 in and affected by suspension geometry, so it may not equal the spacer thickness exactly.
• Designed only for specific years and 6-lug Tacomas, so buyers must verify compatibility carefully.
