Affordable Rear Lift Solution with Factory Ride Quality (2024+)
After running the Peak Suspension Rear Spring Spacer on the 2024 Tacoma, we’ve had the chance to see what it actually delivers. Offered in 1-inch and 2-inch sizes, this billet aluminum spacer is a simple, affordable way to raise the rear of your truck without changing out springs or shocks. For owners who tow, haul, or want to correct your trucks rake after a front lift, it’s a practical bolt-on option to fine tune your rig.
Install Process
Installation was straightforward. The spacers mount right at the spring seat and reuse the Tacoma’s factory hardware. No cutting, welding, or grinding is needed. With basic tools, the job can be done at home in a couple of hours. It is recommended after you lift your Tacoma to have a professional alignment done.
Build Quality and Design
The quality is better than most spacer kits on the market. These are CNC-machined from billet aluminum, not stamped steel or plastic. The anodized finish adds corrosion resistance, and the precise fit means no shifting or squeaking after install. After thousands of miles, there's no play or noise.
Ride Quality and Applications
The spacer doesn’t change how the front suspension rides it simply raises the rear. With the 1-inch spacer, you get a subtle lift that offsets light loads or pairs well with a small front lift. The 2-inch version is better suited if you’re regularly towing, carrying gear, or want a more pronounced rake. Ride quality remains close to stock in both cases, with predictable handling and no harshness added.
- 1-inch = mild rear lift, balances lighter loads or small front lifts
- 2-inch = more rake, useful for towing and heavy cargo
- Not compatible with Trailhunter or TRD Pro trims
- The models come with larger springs from factory, but technically, these may still work.
Final Thoughts
The Peak Rear Spring Spacer isn’t about leveling your Tacoma it’s about utility. If you’ve added a front lift and want to restore rake, or if you haul and tow often and need extra clearance, this spacer is a cost-effective solution. It’s durable, installs easily, and does its job without affecting ride quality. For Tacoma owners who want a little more from the rear suspension without going full aftermarket springs, it’s a solid choice.
