    Hello, I just purchased a 2013 PreRunnner. For a while I really regretted it and wished I got a 4x4 but I can do nothing about it now with out loosing tons of cash, so I want to make it a desert beast.

    Opinions and advice on the best long travel kit and lifts?

    Basically what is the perfect Prerunner desert racer and then i will go from there.

    I have 2,500.00 to put into the upgrades.

    Cheers!

    If you want LT start saving you'll need alot more then 2500. The best thing to do know is read and do alot of research. Check out the LT thread and read read read.

    Thanks, yeah I've been reading but there are so many different LT kits, hard to tell which one will turn out. I think I'm going to go with this,

    X2 on total chaos front with gaint sua in the rear. Op your gunna need at least 8grand for front and back and also if you know how to weld/fab you'll save alot of money on welding gussets and boxing the frame. If you wana build a perfect PRERUNNER make sure you spend alot of time reading/researching on the long travel section
