serousely thinking of "increaseing" my size

i kno i cant spell
spelling is not my best subject
so was thinking of buying a lift for my truck (98 tacoma 2.7 4wd)
i want a good cheap lift
i was thinking this mainly because its 155$
but i like what ive been hearing about the bilstein 5100's
so i was thinking 5100's for the front and rear and a front diff drop spacer and a 2.5 inch aal
and all together that would coust 453 total

are there any cheaper lifts i can get???????

 

bump?

 

come now anyone???
i want to do it right but i dont really wanto spend over 300$

 

hmmm.... Have you checked out what toytec yet. And do you want performance or just looks? Bc I know that a spacer lift isnt ganna ride verry nice.

 

Check it out!

 

i havent checked toytec but i want performance
i ride my truck hard
i know what i want for the rear but i need help with the front

 

Well If you ride it hard!....Then I think about doing either OME coils and shocks, or the adjustable coilovers. But if you are on a budget then I would do the OME route on toytecs site.

 

would this be good
or is this the kinda spacers that i shouldnt use????

 

That will be good, the ride will be stiffer though. I had a spacer lift upfront and I hated it. Just on road driving. So just think of how harsh it will be offroad. Like I said before man, If you dont care that its ganna be stiffer then go for the spacer lift, but I would recomend maybe getting new front shocks, like bilsteins. But what are you ganna get for the rear?

 

sorry i took so long to reply
my brushgaurd finnally came in and it was a pita to install i just finished like 20 mins ago
but i kno i want to run 2.5 inch aal
it says ill need new shocks but i was thinking i could flip the u bolts so that the shock mount is on the top
good idea?????
prolly not

 

Not sure on that one... But def. get a long AAL not the ProComp short ones. I heard they ride real rough, and I think it would be best to upgrade the rear shocks with bilsteins. Just my .02cts. There an awsome shock.

And I would for sure stay away from the spacer front lifts. You wont like the ride man! Go with either bilsteins or a coil lift like OME.

 

alright man ill take ur word on the spacer life
ill just have to save up for some billys

 

you wont regret it! I wish soo bad that I did it right the first time, but I "was" stupid.
So now Im pretty happy with my set up! Im just trying to decide if I want to keep it at this hight or drop the back and front a little. But I dont want to rub......Tell me what you think man!

 

looking at the pics in ur gallery id say leave it like that
looks great

what kinda rims u runnin??

 

thanks man! there Ultra 164's from Les Schwab.
