    What kind of height you looking for?
    How much weight do you have out back?

    OME lift will probably fit your needs pretty well

    My lift was $1200...trust me I know :(. This is why it has taken me forever to do it, plus tires it is taking forever and a day.

    Look into the tundra/ land cruiser lift if you want something cheaper. You won't get the quality,but you can get the height.

    I've got a brand new set of Firestone Destination A/Ts, so I'm not concerned about tires.

    No...basically you use stock Tundra coil-overs up front and stock LC coils in the rear. It will give you the lift you want.

    You use tundra up front and land cruiser out back.

    I'm using ome861 out back. They are from the front of a land cruiser. I have a lot of weight out back. But if you got some 7 or 8 wraps they'd be perfect for you.

    I have them on my 4Runner(admittedly the front tires are completely shot) but these tires just spin in the snow/ice in 2wd. Hoping the KO2's do a little bit better. Didn't get to play with them much off-road though

    Seems to be a 4th Gen thing. @ramonortiz55 is running Toytec rears and loves them. Plus my friend has ran Toytec on his 2nd Gen Taco and current Tundra. Liked them enough to run them twice. Haven't heard any complaints from the 3rd Gen guys

    Good. leaf springs wont work at all. :cookiemonster:

    I have the tundra/Billy/OME lift. I love the tundra springs/5100 up front but I am getting a little annoyed with the 5100 and 906 in the rear.

    So at the risk of sounding like a moron how do you get more lift out of the tundra springs? Top plate spacer?
