    Recently bought a 2020 trd off road 4x4, love it so far. I bought the truck so I could go on some super light trails that take me to more secluded beaches down Baja to surf. Im still running it stock, but I bought a prinsu rack and also a sso hybrid bumper (still waiting on that fabrication)

    After some reading and seeing the different mods, I want to make my set up a camping/ overland truck, but it is also my daily driver, so I don't want to go overboard.

    Yesterday I was in the baja 1000 and did some off-roading, and I noticed that I am running not as high as I like it. I thought of a 2 or 3 inch lift so I can clear some spots more easily.

    I saw Icon, king, fox, bilstein among other brands, but don't really know what I am looking at. I read level kits and I feel im reading Chinese. Sorry if it sounds stupid or I should ask somewhere else. If y'all could point me in the right direction, I do appreciate the help!

    Thanks!

    The best piece of advice I can give is just keep reading, and keep using your truck. Then you can fine tune your truck to YOU and it will suit your needs perfectly. Don't feel the need to go slap a lift and tires on just because, and then regret your choice because you would have rather done XYZ differently.

    That makes the most sense and kind of what I was going with, but I still want to learn about different peoples set up and what they use theirs for. I do appreciate the advice Mr. Fieri.
