    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    Selling with mods like kings, Alcans, tube bumpers means you'll lose money. The average person doesn't know the benefit of those and won't feel compelled to pay you more than normal

    Alright you mugs. Need some advice.

    I'm guessing my front coils have finally sagged from the extra 100 lbs that the bump weighs. Getting a little tire rub when turning into sloped drives or such. The full stuff rub, I guess. Nothing severe. I just don't like it.

    I replaced my original Bilstein shocks all the way around 10,000 miles ago. I pretty much hate them for the mostly highway running that I do. I miss my old '98 SR5. It had a great ride, even if the shocks were only good for 25k.

    Suggest to me a decent shock/spring combo that will get me 1/2" to 1" lift beyond the factory TRD height. I do very little "wheeling" I often travel forest trails to get to decent trout fishing, but it is never anything that requires the use of 4x4.

    Please don't make me wade thru 100's of pages of suspension post and threads.

    No, it seems all you guys want lifts, I just want factory...or level.

    Did and the truck looks great.
    Too much lift for me. That suspension would be wasted on me.

    Thanks

    Man you're all over the place. Didn't you just put a bumper on? Aren't you the one who wanted to v8 swap but didn't want to tub for bigger tires?
