    Okay so I am a 15 year old guy that wants a pavement princess. I have a budget of about $1200, So my plan is to have 6.5-7.5 in the front and 4-6 in the rear... Someone please input me on some ideas of spindle/shocks/anything to help me out to get where I want too.

    1200 is gonna be pretty tight. I’d start with a 4” spindle lift, then eventually add a 2” suspension lift. @ChadsPride can chime in on this one. He’s running a similar setup but with some high end shocks.

    Save your money up,$1200.00 is nothing.When you go above 2 inch lift on a Tacoma,you better have lots of money saved up for vibration problems.

    What everyone isn't telling you is that anything over 2" lift and you'll need a custom driveshaft. Either expand your budget to 2k or start with a small lift and big tires. See how you like the ride, then get into something bigger when you have the cash to pay for correcting all of the issues involved in a huge lift. Also a 7" lift will need massive tires to look right and those alone will cost 2k.

    One guy with a spindle lift told me he regretted doing it and that they're not good; I'm not sure why. At least I think it was a spindle lift he had.

    Lots of options here bro. I would get ahold of Headstrong offroad and snag some Maxtrac 4" lift spindles and a 3 leaf add a leaf with some extended bilsteins to start.

    I used to run camburg spindles with kings at 2in Total of 6 inches up front. All pro leaf pack in the rear. Beat the shit out of that setup for a while.

    This is how the truck used to sit. Since you want a mall princess, ignore the scenery and imagine a Buffalo wild wing parking lot instead. Lmfao
