I have a question, I know I'm about to get multiple responses for this and I'm willing to listen to all ideas but I'm interested in getting a lift. I don't know much about them but I'm thinking I want a 3" lift, not sure if it makes a significant difference on ride height. It would really only be for looks, I drive on the highway alot. I suppose I'm trying to go closer on the cheaper end & still keep it riding nice on the highway. Let me see what you guys got to say

I have an 05' Double cab short bed if that helps

Installed a TRD short shifter on the six speed 4x4 TACO. This is absolutely a must have, specially on a supercharged truck . Very easy installation. It's a no-brainer spend the money and you will love it!!!

I still can't decided if I want to do the front bumper, his looks pretty bad ass (I may be slightly bias as it is a SWB)

All I managed to do was get my truck inspected. Only 6 days late XD

Looks like you should look into getting a fold over mount. I ran one on my Jeep and it was great. You can find them cheaper than this.

Self etch primer, bedliner, paint over bedliner so it won't fade. My opinion
