Shock suggestions?

I have a 2013 Tacoma pre runner and I'm looking to replace my shocks, but before I do that I wanna know what are the best to use.

 

Depends on your budget an use. Bilstein 5100 is great stock replacement rides great an can level the front. Ome another great choice then you get into coilovers which are pricy.

 

Wanting a lift? ​

 

Got lift ?

Best ??? King , icon , fox . Reality for a lot of us is, maybe the above are either , really not needed for our application ? Or out of our price range ! But there are a lot of great alternatives from basic leveling kits to really good struts, shocks , coils , AAL 's and full spring packs .
You could start in the front with OME 886 coils and Bilstien 5100's or OME nitro chargers . Keep it under 3" and you could wait to get UCA's when budget allows .
Then the same 5100's or nitro chargers in back with a 3 leaf AAL or full pack dakars .
Or move to the Billstien 6112/ 5160 tuned set up ! I personally would stay with the 5100 or nitro chargers and use extra money for tire's .
Toytec Boss kit gets great reviews . As does pro comp.
there are a ton out there !
Still want a big three setup and the only thing holding you back is $$$$$&?
Patience! probably the hardest mod of all !

 

Thank you so much @Unchained 5150 You Rock!

Thanks

 

I just got a simple 3 inch, but I'm planning to get a 6 inch later.

 

Should put some Maxtrac spindles on that puppy

 

Wow thanks! $$$ ain't really the issue. I was really waiting for my warranty to die out, but I'm getting impatient so now I'm looking into getting things done to it. I have 1 more year so I'm saying screw it lol, but thank you for the awesome advice!

 

Yep, for me it's a matter of I just don't need that much suspension. It would be a waste of money . I've done that on my other rigs and for this one I'm just going to set it up for what I need.

Then a few weeks after I do ..ill tear it out and put a OME Bp-51 under it lol !!

 

I agree with @ChadsPride spindles will be your best bet for the time. They will provide you with 4" of lift will not alter the ride quality and do not change the geometry so you do not need to run upper control arms. You can retain them and then add in something like a shock/lift coil combination or performance coilover to the spindles and gain additonal lift. We do have pictures on our facebook page of Tacomas running spindle lifts and some running suspension lifts on top of the spindle. I have a 2wd too and I gained my lift from the spindles just to keep the suspension performance. Feel free to reach out to me if you would like either by PM, email or phone and I can help you out with your various options.
