    Do Maxtrac lift spindles up front (4")

    and maybe a single Add A Leaf for the rear (if you want it leaning backwards, negative rake)

    You have a lot of options brother​

    Your stock leafs should be weak enough, just add a few bags of cement to the back. Strap them down, though.

    What is the point of "squatting" or the "bro lean"? Not trying to be sarcastic, just curious. I assume its following the trend of the stretched tire look, and if so more power to ya. Was just wondering.

    Step 1: return your truck to the dealership
    Step 2: go all the way back in time to where you decide to buy a Tacoma and pick the other vehicle you want

    Thank you so much for the recommendation @ChadsPride. You know I appreciate it! :cheers:

    Now @Spinney the term "squat" is throwing me off some. So if you want to raise the front higher then the back that is something that can be easily achieved especially with a 2wd. I have a 2wd myself so I am very familiar with the various options, not that I don't know about the 4x4's too ;). Now if that is the case some people also refer to this as the "bro-lean" or "cali-lean". If this is not what you are referring to then we will probably need you to elaborate on exactly what it is you are hoping to achieve. :)

    Cheapest option, it'll just cost you meal money.
