    before we begin i would like to mention i do offroad a little its more just trail driving but i love the look of taller tacoma's.

    so with that said, i have a three inch suspenion lift but am looking for a few more inches to get me by before i get back from basic and am able to afford the fabtech 6". I am wanting about a two inch body lift:eek:, i would like input on what company to go with thanks guys.

    If i were you i would not go with the 6 inch if you do alot of trail ridding. I would look at icon set or all pro set. Body lifts are no good either.

    Drop brackets and body lifts are for mall crawlers.

    OP, Keep in mind this is coming from someone with a 6" lift. Good luck!

    the 6" drop brackets gain minimal ground clearance opposed to the 3" lifts.

    The 6" drop bracket lifts typically have less clearance than a true 3" suspension lift.
