    I have a 2008 DCSB TRD Sport that has a spacer lift on it. Not sure how tall it is since I also have bigger tires.

    I really want to put a full ome kit on here to get rid of the spacers, but "my finance manager" won't allow me to spend that much. I need to get creative. This is my daily driver and would like to have a competent setup for offroading on the weekends. I'm working with about $500-600.

    Everyone seems to know the options, but I will just go through my thoughts. I could go with ome just up front and leave the spacer on the rear for now, but how much is that going to hinder off-roading? I could go with 5100's and put ome 885 coils on there with an aal, but this is pushing the budget which my wife would not be thrilled about and I like having a happy life.... In this same category would be the IRONMAN lift that toytec is offering, but there are very limited reviews and experience with that setup which makes me cautious. Another idea I had was just leave on the spacer lift and get UCA's. Is that going to help travel and offroading enough?

    I realize that this stuff gets discussed a lot and I have searched a ton. I kind of just want to have a dialogue with people who know more about this stuff than me. I am open to ideas other ideas if you have them. Thanks in advance for the help!

    Show your finance manager your certified Man Card, then tell them that you want to do it right and not use cheap spacers. The OME Kit is your best bang for your buck!

    I have one of those and it comes in handy for sure. Unfortunately I've almost maxed it out that's why I have to stay under $600. lol
