    Seeking advice for lifting my 2014 DCSB Sport Prerunner. Daily driver, no off road use aside from the occasional dirt trail (minor). The lift is purely for aesthetics. Details below (ie: goals, upcoming purchases, etc.). Need help finding the best options to accomplish goals.

    Goals:
    - 2" to 2.5" lift up front with slight rake in rear
    - Stock+ ride quality
    - Bang for buck for intended use, while not compromising ride quality

    Avoiding:
    - 3" lift up
    - Spacers/blocks (if possible)

    Upcoming purchases:
    - 17" SCS Stealth 6 wheels
    - 275/70/17 BFG AT KO2's

    I have looked at everything from leveling kits/spacers to the lift kits (ie: Head Strong: OME 884, 5100's, optional LR UCA and 1" - 1.5" rear block). I'm leaning towards a lift kit as I've read negative reviews from those who've used leveling/spacers, however, the lift kits can be pricey for my intended use. Any advice you could offer around the best possible options (with price and ride quality in mind) is greatly appreciated!! Thanks in advance.

    Yes, Prerunner. I've heard bad things about spindles related to ride quality. Are there spindle lifts that offer 2" - 2.5" of lift? Maybe lacking on research, but I've only seen 3"+ spindle lifts...?

    Most spindles will be 3.5. I run maxtracs and got about 4. They make a complete kit front and rear.

    Is there a specific Eibach spring that offers 2" - 2.5" w/ 5100's set at zero? I've been told the 884's will lift Prerunners around 2.5".
