    2 inch lift. After market rims and rites. Auto start
    So when I was in Hawaii last week, I looked at all the tacos and I have to say, they all seemed stock. Nice and clean but didn't see any with rims or lifts, kinda weird in a way.

    Might need to replace my lower ball joints. When doing the brakes I noticed there was a lot of play when I pushed and pulled on my driver side tire. Didn't check my passenger side but I'll do that soon.
