    Done alot of searching throughout TW. And have gotten mixed Signals
    Now its time for the meat and potatoes. Which 3" lift kit do yall recomend for a 2012 Prerunner for Moderate Offroading but mainly just to look good.
    Looking for the safest, most affordable, and one that wont void factory warrenty.

    And no lift will void the warranty. Check out the maggnisun moss act, not sure if I spelled that right. Basically they have to prove that whatever you put on directly resulted in the failed part.

    I would say OME kit as well, especially if you are someone who "uses" your truck. Increased bed weight capacity and it is a smoother ride from stock in im experience.
    wheelers has it listed for about $1100.
