    I have a 2013 2wd Tacoma I recently purchased and I would like to lift it, I would like to avoid a body lift. Any suggestions or comments?

    Spacer lifts typically stiffen the ride, but aren't too bad. I'm currently running a 2.5" Pro Comp Spacer in front and a 1" block in rear. But I'm about to upgrade to a 4" Maxtrac Spindle and Bilstein 5100s. Depending on how high you're trying to go, here's a few suggestions:
    <2" : Bilstein 5100s all around
    2"-3": Spacers (least recommended)
    4"< : Spindle Lift with combinations of AAL, Shocks and/or blocks

    That toytec lift won't work on the 5 lerg. I think the fat bob's stuff is the only thing offered for them

    I just did Billy's all around from DSM. I have a 2007 dblcb 4.0 l TRD sport prerunner. I set the front at the top adjustment. The front sits at 38 1/4 and the rear is at 37 1/4. Its a little bit stiff up front. I will be lowering to the lower clip(3rd) from the bottom and see what happens from there.

    Just a heads up you will fall in love with it and want to spoil it and buy it nice pretty things. Not really a suggestion though
