    2007 Tacoma trd 4x4
    Hello, I have a 2007 Tacoma trd off road 4x4. I want to change the leafs, the shocks, including the springs. I would also like to get new upper controls arms and later on lower control arms. I plan on the future to get new wheels and larger tires. I’m looking into bilstein 5100 and pair them with Toyotec 2.5 inch springs. Then for leafs I was looking at Beaver j66 prior but saw some people say they’re trash, even without any load in the bed. Now I’m looking at all pro leafs spring instead. Then for upper control arms I’m conflicted between dirt king upper control arms or total chaos. I drive usually 20 miles a day highway/city. I want to get into overlanding or off-roading. I’m just seeking guidance advice for good brands and products that could suit best. I’ve looked at several forums and other websites YouTube all that. I get most is opinion based. I want a good ride little harsh dosent matter but not crazy soft. I will put load on and off in the bed ranging from the entire bed being stuffed with dirt for projects to some wood. Anything helps I just want to hear others thoughts and what they recommend. On top of this I will change out the brake lines soon. I’m not looking for a monster lift or anything something like 2-2.5 max. Thanks for future reference.
