    I have a 1st gen (2001) taco. I have a 3 in. body and 2.5 in suspension lift. My tires rub when just daily driving down the road, however when they get compressed when wheelin' they do. Is there a cheap way I could get just an inch or so in the front.
    EDIT: my suspension lift is a spacer in the front block in the back.

    Trim your fenders! It sounds to me that you might need to trim your inner fender well some. Look into some 1" wheel spacers? Get us some pics, and we can help you better.

    Ill post some pics tommorrow. I have trimmed nearly everything I can. They don't rub really bad or anything, it just bugs me when they do: such as when I hit a hole real quick.
