    I know next to nothing about suspension lifts except from what I've read on here recently. I own a 2001 prerunner and the shocks are shot to shit. I have about $1000 to spend (including installation), because I don't have the time or place to try this myself. I am looking into a 2.5-3" lift that rides good on street, but still gives me a decent off road ride. I love this truck and plan on keeping it for a long time, so I want to do things the right way. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks, Jeff.
