    I've got a 2004 Tacoma TRD Off Road. Sitting at stock height.

    I want to lift it no more than three inches. What are some of the best systems out there?

    Will I need a new upper and lower control arm?

    I've been looking at the Icon Stage 2 and some OME packages.

    A bunch a cool stickers, a bada ass MetalMiller Tx Longhorns grill emblem painted Hemi Orange, JBA long tube headers with o2 sims, Diff breather mod, Red LED interior lights, Fancy head unit that plays ipod n movies, Also DIY install factory stuff like, factory cruise control, factory intermittent wipers, OME nitro struts with 886x springs and toy tec top plate, JBA high caster UCA's for better alignmnet and dey beefier too, Old Man Emu Dakar leaf springs in da rear with the gear, U bolt flipper, Ivan Stewart TRD rims with 33" K Bro 2's, some bad ass weather tech floor liners so I don't muck up my interior, an ATO shackle flipper for mo travel in da rear wit the gear, also super shiny Fox 2.0 shocks back there too, all sorts of steal armor for bouncing off of the rocks like demello sliders, AP front skid, trans skid, n transfer skid, demello gas tank skid, and a tough as nails ARB bumper with warn 8k winch, I'm sure there's more
    Skip Icon, go with Kings. TC uppers, OEM replacement lowers, unless you do long travel. Rear OME leaf pack with greasable shackles n bolts. That should get you started. Also, replace your inner n outer Tie rods, ball joints, and if you keep your sway bar, sway bar end links. I recommend OEM, buy brand is up to you.
