    Looking for the best leveling kit under 200$ I want 2" in the front and probably stick with a 2" block in the back. What are your thoughts?

    my build tread: https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/socal-no-shame-poser-build.513084/
    Id just do bilstein 5100’s front nothing in rear for about 1.5” lift up front. Could go 1” block in rear if they make them or a single add a leaf. Blocks and spacers get alot of nasty ocmments on here. You want about an 3/4” to inch difference for level

    Bilsteins are 120$ for a set Use stock springs.You will probsbly wanna move this to the suspension tread in forum if you can

    All you're doing here is raising it the same F/R and the rake stays the same. Not 'leveling'.

    Leveling is a looks only thing, removing rake that's engineered into vehicles for a purpose.

    With the right tires and decent driving skills these trucks are quite capable. So my thought is wait until you find you need a lift of some type to help off road performance, then do it with quality bits.
