    I'm deciding whether I should get a 3 inch suspension lift or not. Does anyone have any pictures that have a tacoma with a 3 inch suspension lift on 32/33s with a stock Tacoma alongside it? I want to see how big of a height difference it would be. Thanks

    Your truck looks huge next to the non lifted one. I need to make sure I never park next to you at any meets. I will stick to parking next to squirrel boy. :laugh:

    Was it difficult to get used to driving with the new height? Can't wait to lift mine next month.

    Has anyone gone 33 12.50's on a 10" wheel, and a 3" coil over set up? If so, can you post picks (or direct me to where they are) and share your experience with how it has worked out. I'm concidering the Toytech Ultimate lift at the moment.
