    Unhappy Latest word from RCD

    Here is the latest word from RCD regarding their suspension lift for the Tundra. I just received this today. Well, at least it sounds like they're trying to get it right but I wonder if they'll ever get it ready.

    Question When is the RCD 6" lift coming out?

    Does anyone know anything about when RCD's 6" lift for the Tundra coming out? Also does anyone know how reliable their products are? Will this lift be able to stand up to off-roading or is it like Whiplash? I've never heard too much about RCD. Also, does anyone know if this lift will be able to fit the new Double Cabs? That would be sweet! Thanks in advance!

    RCD is a very good company. They have about as stong a lift as you can get with IFS. They're nothing like Whiptrash Suspensions. As for when its coming out the release has been pushed back to sometime this summer. It was supposed to be out last spring, but they decided to redesign the kit. Can't be sure about fitting the double cabs cause hey, they're not even out yet.

    I think I remember someone hearing from a rep that it will work on 2 and 4 wheel drives. Don't quote me on that tho.

    Like a lot of guys on this forum, I am still waiting on RCD to produce. This lift and price are playing a big role in me keeping my Tundra or going back to the Big 3. A buddy has a Yukon Denali with 6" RCD lift. He is very pleased with it and I think they make a great product. In my opinion it is ridiculous to spend the money coilovers cost to acheive what they do. If RCD is reading this, HURRY UP!!!!!!!

    Werd man. I'm so impatient, I wanna have a lifted truck while I can still enjoy it. So tempting to get Z-71 on some 38's. If its not out by the end of this summer I might switch have to over to Chevy. :cry:

    Looked at a 2002 Z-71 a couple of days ago. Very tempting. Chevy really screwed up the front end on the new 2003's. Ugliest thing on the market. Will wait a bit but can't hold out forever.

    What will the price for this lift be? Any guesses. I may have to look into it if the price is right.

    I felt the same way about the front end, until I saw a huge lifted one here at school. The new front end made it look really mean when they're jacked sky high.

    Default RCD Update

    Been waiting for a year for the mythical RCD lift to be released. Just did my quarterly status check. They advise the release is planned for sometime in August or September. I'm guessing that means sometime between Christmas and the next presidential election. I think I'm going to have to go with a TC lift and some fabricated spindle braces...

    Thanks for the update. I was wondering what the latest was myself & thought I'd check on here. Thought I might find some good news.

    I'm starting to wonder if they even have a Tundra kit in the works at all. They did send me some info about it in the mail a couple of months ago with a picture of a lifted Tundra but I don't believe it! I think they're just pulling my leg. It better be worth the wait!!

    That is so weak... This is getting to be worse than the V8 supercharger release date.

    The way I see it, the longer the R&D time is, the better and less problems the product is going to have by the time it gets released. It's good that there is still a manufacturer that takes its time to do the job right the first time instead of just releasing a product just because they want to make some money and then not warranty it and it end up killing someone.

    Remember how everyone waited forever for the S/C to come out only for it to have all kinds of bugs when released?
