    I did the ecgs clamshell bushing, rear carrier drop and a diff drop. I did 5100s on 4th perch, one inch block. New 265/70/17. The drop kits put me back in factory specs. Drives like a dream, factory coils and uca. The alignment is perfect. Every Tacoma is a little different ands so may or may not need everything.

    I think he just wanted to show off his truck. Way too much for just a mall crawler. Great looking truck though.

    OP- what do you consider affordable? Spacer would be ok BUT better off going 5100s with new coils and AAL in the back.

    Seriously, reach out to Marie @HeadStrong Off-Road.

    I like that truck and am considering exactly the same configuration for my ‘17 Sport. I’m going to keep my factory wheels at least for now.

    Also looking at something similar, along with a set of SumoSprings/bumpstops. I'm not really an off-roader but would like to do an AAL for hauling/towing so something simple with minimal lift (and avoiding headaches that can come from too much lift - CV, diff, UCA, brake lines, TSS calibration, etc etc) is what I'd like. Also don't have a lot of extra money kicking around right now, so cheap is best! Do you have more info or a build thread on what you did with more details? How much did the overall lift end up being?

    If you only care about looks (there’s nothing wrong with that either) then Toytec spacers and blocks will have it looking nice with room for more aggressive, better looking tires.

    Everyone will say to save your money and do bilstein 5100s. Personally I paid for the off road package. I'm just going to go with a supreme suspension 2" front 1" rear to fit some 265/75 and look good. Hopefully it stiffens the boat feel a little. Itll be fine for what I need
