    I have a 2000 Tacoma 4 cyl, automatic locking hubs. I was wondering what the best brand of lift kit is? the one that wont mess with any of my mechanics or the basic function of the truck. I would like to get something that is between 3"-6". and I plan on putting 33"s on it. What do you recommend?

    Don't do this. Unless you want a horrible ride

    Unless you have 1000 or 2000 dollars to blow I would say this lift is great. I can't complain about the ride because I can't expect it to ride like stock.

    Well, I have the same thing. And I wish I would've waited and got adjustable bilstiens or something. It's cheap, but the ride is cheap too

    Don't the bilstiens only go up to 2.5"?

    I think so. But, Bilstiens and Eibachs yield about 3 inches of lift I think. I just can't wait to get some Coilovers

    Ok, I will eventually redo my entire suspension. I need new coil overs anyway (stupid rust recalls)
