    I have a 4x4 2012 tacoma. The only after market things i have are an 8in Sub, deck, and tko goodyear tires. I am ordering a camper shell for this and i have a lot of ideas, but not the know how. I'm no truck aficionado, so if anyone has any small changes ideas, believe me when i say they will be much appreciated. Thank you for any ideas.

    ps: one of the things I'm looking into right now, is how to get a small lift. I am only the weekend camper, so i don't need to get huge with it. but i did have to take off the front mud guards on my front due to the new tires rubbing them.

    Hi, Obviously I'm new and I have been scouring the pages here looking for suspension advise (one of the main reasons why i joined) and I'm a little bit overwhelmed. From what I can gather, I want the Bilstien 5100 series shocks.
    My question is, if I buy a set of the shocks, is that all I need to add a little lift to my truck to have it leveled out a bit, or do I need other things to go along with it?

    If your looking for a lift of around 2", the 5100's are perfect. Nothing else would be needed.
