    It's not a dumb question, it's just not a very good setup. FYI, you'll get people telling you to ditch the blocks/spacers (which I support), long travel, SAS, etc. Really, though, what are you trying to achieve, and what kinds of things do you do with your pickup? Is it just for show, or are you genuinely off-road, crawling, etc.? Are you really trying to get 2+ inches higher in the front? What for? A little insight will go a long way toward getting your question answered (accurately).

    Your a prerunner, so you could do a spindle lift. Have to be custom spindles though as no one really makes them anymore.

    If your trying to get bro lean like the LT guys, just drop the rear more.


    or..


    don't be a poser, and get a real long travel setup and enjoy the awesomeness of going fast over whoops on a cloud of suspension.

    I wish i could get long travel but i don't have enough money at the moment. Im hoping to work all summer and water and have enough to afford a manual 4x4 2002 toyota tacoma and put long travel on it. Thanks!

    Well...in that case. Don't spend any more money on the current truck. Save it for the next one.
