    Hey Tacoma World,

    I been reading a lot of people upgrading their suspensions (usually Bilstein's) for better ride and handling. I do appreciate the ride with the stock suspension when the roads are mostly smooth, but I do find it bouncy when it shouldn't be bouncy (like on really bad roads or crowded, narrow highways with poor surfaces which cause the truck to shift over). I won't mind a stiffer ride, as long as it's not harsh.

    So my question is since I don't go off-roading that much (only when visiting relatives in the midwest), which would be a better choice/value? And any input and tips about having them installed would be appreciated, as I am new to all of this and still trying to learn and figure things out. Also, if you could provide a reputable place where I could buy them, that would be great!

    Thank you everyone!

    In before “use the search function.”


    As for recommenced places to buy, TW has a whole list of vendors. Headstrong and Wheeler’s seem to be the most popular.
