Side note: you can also change your spark plugs super easy with that cowl assembly is out!

This is SO FANTASTIC! We have a Gen 3 and have taken her on many a back-road, but this... this is a game changer.

Thorough and easy to follow.. Looking forward to doing this.

concise and informative. thumbs up.

Great video, a side by side picture to see the difference on the lift would be awesome, thx .

This is what we need to see more of, Prius Offroad! Lots of car people who drive Priuses for the car's unreal potential and reliability. Unfortunately 3rd party supplies have always been late and skant with these hybrids. Do us all a favour and put up tags for your videos, look into battery voltage balancing. showcase your lift kits on other generations of Prius, investigate if upgrading the roll bars are helpful to the ride height.

Two weeks ago while driving on the 101N freeway at dawn in Los Angeles, I ran over what I believe was a 24 inch (60cm) piece of 4 by 4 lumber board and it impacted the bottom passenger side taking out one of the plastic engine/fender bay covers. I need this lift NOW!!

Nice mouse bed under the wiper motor. I have one of those.

Dang, feels like we might need this! ha, rad.

2:02 The famous Prius mouse nest right there LOL.

Hey brother, hope you're recovering well from your accident. Thanks for what you do for the community. I have to ask- Have you guys tried mix n matching OEM parts from other platforms? I think a Rav4 LCA up front and a Sienna strut would allow for larger lift without geometry or tire clearance issues. I haven't crawled under the back of my Gen 3 yet to see what in tarnation is happening back there, but it can't be that different to anything else they do. It's just arms and links- cheap parts to get lengthened etc depending on design, or use something of another car to get to spec. I just can't jump on the kits yet until I explore OEM options. One thing that's interesting is the Prius has TONS of strut/shock rod travel, most similar to a Sienna in terms of how the rear strut is mounted/moves through its travel. I assume the rear suspension is very similar, just lighter duty/smaller overall. Notably- I think the 08 era Sienna rear shock would fit really really nicely in a 2-3" lifted Prius--- In fact might have to use a slimmer bushing to "shorten" the compressed length, but it has another 1.1" of stroke, compressed length is 2.3" longer. There are Tacoma and Tundra shocks that have similar strokes/lengths as well. Tacoma oddly enough are too short. From what I can tell, Tundra rears would work beautifully. Almost exactly 1" longer than the OEM shocks, same stroke more or less. Valving would be a complete unknown. Definitely think the Tundra shock would work great, given the extra leverage the IRS has against it, and not having the leafs to manage, I think the damping might not actually be that bad. Hard to say. But the longer compressed length might prevent stuffing an OS tire as well. I actually considered using a Sienna shock on my 4Runner as a joke, since it has a really impressive stroke but the compressed length is too long. Which Is something I actually need now with my GX setup but I'm going TRD pro on it. The TRD Pro shocks are really really close to Prius OEM lengths, with a hair more extended length, nearly identical compressed. 14.7-25.5 give or take, prius is 14.5-23.8

Is it going to affect the front drive axles for premature wear I have a 2012 Prius v looking to get it done

Hi thanks for the video . I have 2011 Prius do I need to adjust the lower control arm height since the stock ride height is changed please? Thank you 🙏

Any chance you can show us how to lift the rear? Thanks. Very insightful video. Thanks for the tips

Probably the only lift kit that requires you to take the windshield wiper assembly out.

for 1.5" do you need drop the subframe too?

Mine is one the way! Question, does the TRD rear sway bar help? I haven't had a chance to really look where it mounts, but I couldn't understand how it would help a solid beam axle. I've got 215/70R15 tires on right now and the front rubs some on bigger bumps, but I still scrape my bumper in places. But I'm thinking about stability with a load on the back of the car, to be more specific about 170lbs of trailer tongue weight. I've had 240lbs of salt in the trunk a couple times. Less than half the payload capacity, with me in it. You should make some videos on your Gen3.

Was the boot torn from the top of the strut or is that the way they should be?

You can torque those with a crows foot

Hi,what's the Max liftoff capability for gen 3?

I just got the prius Offroad lift kit for my 2014, prius GS 1.8cc (gen 3) I own a right hand drive car... So i need to ask how the arrows and letters should be placed on front kit as you advised that the arrows should be pointed towards the passenger side (driver side in my case) and the letters up against the firewall. I guess i have to place in reverse order, arrows towards the driver side, and where its written P(Passenger) i have to put it on driver side and vice versa, but I’d really appreciate your input/advise as well.

Is this rubber damaged on my car and do I need to replace it? Is it too big a problem?

Hi, do you know of any system for a 15 Corolla Eco? (Says 5.6" clearance online.) rarely fire roads to camp. Snowboarding, in SoCal.

It would have been cool if there was a list of tools used.

Do the CV joints have reliability issues running at a steeper angle from the gearbox to the hub with the spacer kit added ?

Is it same for the 2012 V? If I drive up there how much total? Or do you any vendors in LA Area? Great 👍🏽 product

Cuántas pulgadas es ??? Se puede poner uno de 2.5 pulgadas???

What about the 2021 AWD Prius lift kit installation? Same process? Will you be making a video for that? Thanks in advance. I'm about to purchase a new 2021 AWD Prius and will most definitely be buying your lift kit.

How much stress does this cause on the CV boot and joint....??? Recommend replacing shocks with this as well?

After installing a lift kit in my 09 Prius i got the PCS light ON. i tried to google it but so far i am not getting any solid answers. is installing a lift kit causing the pcs warning light to come ON or is it something else which has caused the issue?

Do you have to remove the shroud and everything. I’ve removed it before so I know its not terrible. More just laziness. Looks like if I just take the outside clips and push up a bit, I can get a socket and ratchet.

Really having trouble reinstalling the passenger side strut to steering knuckle. Have some pry bars, etc, but don't seem to have any spots that work to get the angles right. Seems like a spring-compressor would work but don't have one. (My brother in law might... or I may make Harbor Freight a little bit richer!) Any tips appreciated!

Why the only driving side ?

Is this the same for the new 2021 awde? I'm guessing the front ends haven't changed in a few gens?

Do you know what difference you will get in mpg? Thanks

Who sells the spacers & how much each?

Is it same process for a 2017 Prius Eco?

Is this the same for a 2021 Prius prime?

Is the gen 4 process similar?

How much do you charge to do this at your shop? Im saving now. Ideally Id like it Lifted. Off Road Shocks and Struts, Off Road Tires. What does each cost. Is there a package price? Thanks. 2013 Prius Persona.

What tools does need, sae or metric?

Do you have an install video for a Scion iM/Corolla iM?

Whay you don't show the final how's the different before and after??

Is the gen 4 any different?

Looks like this took about 12 minutes so this gonna cost me about fiddy bux, right?

What about the rear axle?

Need this asap what’s the total cost

Is it permanent lift or is it hydraulic?

It’s not 2inch lift kit is it? I was looking at 2 inch but not sure how safe it is… any input on that? Thanks.

can i go to a 4'"lift kit '

The letter on our kit isn’t right below the arrow as shown in this video, so it’s kind of confusing.

Is this process the same for Gen 4 prime?

Проставка 20мм?

1.5" that's all?

im lazy and u didnt provide a link in the description for the website.. Zzz

Thats a rats nest @ 2:17

1/5" IS NOT 1.5" OR 1 1/2" ITS one fith of an inch.

It looked like he missed tightening a nut under the cowl on the drivers side wiper assembly. I wouldn't want any speed records broken on a car job of mine!
