    I have a 2017 Tacoma TRD off Road. Looking for a leveling kit. I have been researching everything from rough country and daystar. Just wondering if anyone has any opinions on what to get. I'm just trying to bring up the front end to match the back.

    Ready lift makes some good stuff. Also Bilstein 5100s may let you get level at the 1st or 2nd notch.

    Will a 3rd gen bottom out its shocks and smash them like 2nd gens do when running spacers?

    Mine has level kit, 34" tires, wife's truck is all stock
    I installed 3" ready lift and skyjacker 8000 rear shocks but I think a different shock is in order as rear ride is a bit rough. Plus the needle bearing issue became present. Tommorrow I am putting in that clam shell bushing to get that issue solved. But if your looking for a cheaper level kit this might be your thing.

    So, then.... spacers will cause the shocks to bottom out before the bumpstops fully squish since the 2nd gen and 3rd gen are same?
