    I may have tweaked a few things...
    Hello,
    I'm looking to improve the ride on my 2009 2.7L Prerunner Access Cab, with oem/replacement parts currently on the suspension. I found a great deal on takeoffs from a 2016 TRD Sport, shocks/coils/UCAs, with less than 5k for around $200. I see that the UCAs have the same part number, but the coils are made for the Sport's v6 weight. This is my first suspension upgrade so I have no experience to go off of. If anyone could help me with a few questions:

    -Will these coils raise the front end, if so any idea how much?
    -Is it worth replacing the UCAs? I've heard it can be a pain, I'm not sure if I care about these.
    -Would I be better off spending another ~$100 on a set of Bilstein 5100s?

    To be clear, I have no desire for a lift right now. I'm still riding 245/75/16 right now and I will likely go with a C or SL tire in 265/75/16 next. I wouldn't mind to much if it leveled a little so maybe up to 1" in the front is fine. This is my DD and I occasionally explore some high clearance trails and mild offroading.

    TIA!
