    It should drive fine, the rear will be a little more stiff.
    Yes you will need longer u bolts for the leaf pack to get over those blocks.

    I am new to lifts. I want to lift my truck in the next couple days. I have no clue where to start. I have a 2x4 Tacoma TRD Sport. Mainly for looks very little off-road if any. I’ve been told to get a suspension lift, a leveling kit, I’ve heard body lift. I want to the best thing for my truck that drives the best and looks the best. Any help would be awesome. Thanks

    You would be fine with a spacer lift. Don't go over 3 inches and make sure to get an alignment.
