    Hey guys...names Josh. I’m from just north of Pittsburgh, PA. Just bought my first Tacoma...2018 TRD Off Road. I’ve had chevys and fords previously, and so far, I love the Taco!

    No big plans for it yet other than some window tint. May look into a level and some tires in the future. Let me know your thoughts!

    Thanks a lot...used to have a black Silverado. Looks great clean but it is tough to keep it that way.

    I’ve been looking into the simple spacer kit. Not sure what height to go to get it sitting level. I was thinking a 2” since the TRD I believe comes factory with a 1” boost.

    Yeah you just have to look around. I can say that you may need a 1/4" spacer for the driver side to combat the "taco lean" that they get when lifted.

    I’d avoid the spacer lift for leveling and contact Marie @HeadStrong Off-Road for understanding and obvious knowledge to accommodate what overall will be more satisfying!:yes:
