    I have an 07 taco 4door short bed 4WD and I want to lift it 3inches but I also want it to still be even as well. I want to put bigger rims under it and I don't really go offroading, if anything, it's just diving on really fucked up roads (ya I'm from Guam) so I definitely want a smoother ride. What will I need to accomplish this?:D

    bilstein 5100 with toytec top plate spacer for the lowest cost. OME set-up using new coils, shocks and such for a little more money

    oh and for 3" lifts you will need new upper control arms: Light racing BJ style, Camburg BJ or uniball, or Total Chaos uniball. I personally used TC and loved them!
