    My single cab 2001 rwd yota. Been working on her for a year already, with 176000 miles in it motor still in dealership condition. Straight pipe not loud just harmony to my ears. I have little things to change under the hood, but i have a problem that it's bothering me i don't know if I want to lower it or keep it same and do the 3 inch lift. I'm thinking of buying front and back bleinstein shocks 5100. But if I lower it they won't work and if I lift them well still a 2wd any thoughts that can help me choose on lowering or adding 3 inch front lift. Thanks

    KYB gasadjust shocks all around, lower the front end onto the road, put a cap on it, paint the hood flat black and it’s done. Edit: and a chrome tipped side exit exhaust in front of the rear wheel and white letters out. Done. Wait, get a dually rear axle, too...... oh, God the things I’d like to do to that truck! Good luck op!
