Help

I have an all stock 2001 Tacoma 4x4 access cab. Anyone have any ideas on what to do to make it look nice? For pretty cheap too

 

First thing I would do is start saving for a lift...

 

What is that? Haha sorry I'm new
And what kind of lift?

 

Either of these would be good

 

Ok thanks but what about like an leveling kit instead?

 

And your truck, like what exactly have you done to it?

 

What's wrong with them? Lol

 

You can get leveling kits for cheap

I have this http://www.suspensionconnection.com/cgi-bin/suscon/KT09114BK-tacoma-kit.html and it does good, but I plan to get Blisteins all around someday. Better to do it right the first time.

 

As for spacer lifts, there are good and bad about them. If you're going wheeling at least 1-2 times a week then spacers may not be for you. But if you're like me and does some off roading 1-2 times a month then a spacer lift will be fine. Some complain about ride quality but my ride quality got better when I installed them...

 

Oh ok well it does look good! I'm thinking about putting on a aero turbine muffler on mine. Should I? Pros and cons of them?

 

Ok well if I get a spacer lift will it hurt like safety? Like I barely do any off roaring.

 

No, safety wise you're fine. I've ridden my truck hard on trails and through rough terrain and have had 0 problems out of it.

 

Alright cool! How hard is it to put on a spacer lift?

 

Eh, if you have the right tools it isn't to hard. You might want to talk to somebody else on here that's more experienced on this. My dad did my front end for me while I was at school. It may be easier for you to take it to w wheel and tire ship and have them do it for you.

 

Tire off. Disconnect the sway bar and lower ball joint compress spring undo top strut bolts. pull out. attach spacer and put everything back.

 

Alright thanks

 

When you take the bolts at the top of the shock off. Do not take the center one holding the shock in with the spring intill its compressed. Damage will occur...

 

Okay, how about I take it somewhere lol how much would that cost and where would I get it done at?

 

Usually labor charges are 50-70 $ an hour. You could do it yourself just ask for directions from us through it and itll be free and somewhat easy. I just did mine 3 days ago

 

Okay well I'll see
