    So I’m trying to save up money to squat my Tacoma with 4” in the front and 2” in the back. I can’t seem to find any 4” kits for just the front. Anyone know of any that are good?

    Are you trying to lift your front end higher than the rear? Look up maxtrax spindles because they'll lift your front end 4". They'll work for you since you're 2wd. If you do that and NOTHING ELSE you'll get some serious squat going.

    Hello and Welcome!

    Just letting you know that you shouldnt be surprised at all to see this thread not go the way you wanted it to.

    Also, for the sake of other motorists, please dont squat your truck. The headlights get angled straight into the eyes of oncoming traffic at night.

    OP dont listen to all the douche bags on this site because there is plenty of them but there is a few that actually like to help. It's your truck so you do what you want with it. When all these others start paying for it then let them decide.

    I think you are probably looking of some maxtrac spindles or something similar. This will help you achieve what you want. Just research them' they give 4" lift in front.

    Welcome to TW! Check out the Banned Members Memorial Thread in like 20 minutes for updates.

    As stated I think MaxTrac spindles and a small block or AAL in the rear is what you’re looking for.

    If you want to lower your truck as it sounds, just say you want to lower or slam your truck. If you say squat, that means something else for a truck, then you get all the flaming.

    If you want to squad it why even bother lifting the rear? Not something I know anything about but fk just throw some maxtrax up front and leave the rear stock.

    Use the saved money to buy adjustable headlights to avoid being an asshole

    It ain’t gonna be much of a squat, it would be slightly tilted. I just want to fit bigger tires in the back with the squat. I found a kit that would anyways.

    Get new shocks/springs/spindles for the front. Get new leaf springs for the back for the lift you want plus 3" and thickness of spring pack then do a spring under install.
    Also, PLEASE tie a foot of toilet paper to your hitch... It would be funny.
