A LIFT KIT IS BEING BLAMED FOR A DEATH
———
Autoblog dropped an article last week about a head on collision between a Toyota Tundra and a Ford F150 that resulted in the wrongful death of the Tundra driver. The F150 had a 6” lift installed (Tundra is presumed to be stock) and a lawsuit alleges these modification caused the F150 to catastrophically intrude into the cab of the Tundra. Very sad story.

The article shines light on lift (and lowering) kits that once installed significantly change the vehicles capabilities to avoid/mitigate collision damage.
