    Hey Y'all,

    I have a 96 2wd Tacoma with 212,000 miles on it. Still rocking the original suspension. It sags and takes every bump pretty rough. I would like to replace everything to make it ride smoother, and not sag so much when I have things in the bed, but I can't find any posts anywhere about just a simple replacement. I don't know what all needs to be replaced or if some things can stay. I don't need a lift or anything like that, I just want to keep my truck from bottoming out on tiny bumps. Can someone point me in the right direction for this?

    Would also like to keep it below $1,ooo.

    Thanks,
    Floody

    I don't see why not.
    Change all bushings in the upper and lower control arms as well.

    If I don't have to tools to change the bushings, is there any reason I couldn't just replace the whole arms? It sounds like it might be a bit easier.=, for just a bit more expensive.
