    The cheapest lift would be to go with a spacer lift which is complete crap... But as everyone on this site would agree, you should just invest in a bilstein 5100 and eibach coil setup which isnt too expensive (its around $350) Check out toyteclifts.com and check out what they have. The reason the spacer lift is highly discouraged is because the spacer stiffens the ride of your truck by pre loading the front strut assembly. Good luck and hope this helps!

    ALL OF THEM!...Then some more.
    for 2''..id go with either 5100s set at the 2.5'' setting, or get some OME 881 or 882 coils.



    Cheap and lift..don't go together tho.


    So really, do some more research and figure out your needs for the truck and what you really want.
