    I previously owned a 2007 access cab and ran 5100s on all 4 corners with 265/70/17s n loved it looking to do the same for my 2020 but the price is totally different now days then back then lol. Truck looks amazing by the way!!!

    They make the glory holes way to big it works great for necking it down. Also prevents splinters for the old school stalls.

    I have no regrets lifting mine. I do however regret not going with the suspension and lift setup I really wanted. I ultimately want to be on extended travel Kings but haven’t been able to save up the coin yet. So in the mean time I settled for bilstein 5100s and OME 888s

    Ordered my lift while waiting for dealer to prepare for delivery. Only went 3 and 2 with spacers. Don’t regret any mods so far. But the 33” Toyos cost me 3 mpg.77ABB641-D1AD-4D68-8444-B876A23CBBDB.jpg

    Not at all. Bilstein 5100s with OME 887s front and Wheeler add a leaf rear. Installed myself about 30,000 ago. Those Hankook DynaPro ATM 275/70R17's look brand new!

    I kinda regret mine.

    I have a second gen pro suspension and HD Dakars. I think it's a lot of money for no real benefit personally. I somewhat prefer the ride of the stock OR set up, but as my truck is fully loaded 90% of the time I went with the HD Dakars to support the weight while driving and also for towing.

    Lifting also leads to other issues like vibes and rubbing. It also leads to just huge amounts of money spent lol, tires, wheels... It honestly feels like a non ending quest.

    If you're gonna lift, might as well go all the way. Fuck those tiny ass 285's.

    Really love what I’ve done to my Tacoma so far.

    Coming from someone who really liked the stock ride and worried about sacrificing any of it, I will say that with my Bilstein 6112/5160 with Dobinson's upper arms and Icon rear 1.5" add a leafs, I am blown away by how good the truck rides on the road. And I haven't even had it aligned yet. My wife rode with me yesterday and I asked what she thought. She replied that it was much smoother and less bouncy. I am amazed by the way it eats up low man hole covers and pot holes etc. It rides more like our old BMW E53 X5 4.6is sport which is huge compliment to the ride IMO. Every aspect is vastly improved to me (especially in the rear) and I was most concerned about sacrificing ride quality. I definitely do not regret the lift.

    Just google search them and new ones with PN's will come up. If you go to classifieds here, you can find members selling theirs used. That's likely your best and cheapest route. I was going to do that as well but ended up getting the Bilsteins since price was similar.
