    I don't see any mention about how many miles are on it, but based on the amount of corrosion on the one rear shock, I'd pass. Besides, if you want your original ride quality back, you don't want that lift. Better deals exist and yes, go with a take off 3rd gen suspension.

    OP the suspension in that link would work, I would remove the spacer from it and throw just the factory coilover setup on. Simply putting the 3g setup onto a 2g will get you in inch of lift on the front by itself.

    The OR shocks ride very nice too, you won't be disappointed so long as they actually have the mileage listed for $100.

    Sorry. Missed that. Still, 20,000 is about half used up for most shocks. You can generally find take off suspensions with almost zero miles on them. (I did.) Hold out for a better deal.

    Find some lightly used (under 2k miles) take offs 3rd Gen TRD OR. Plenty around me for 200 for all 4 corners. Currently just swapped 3rd gen TRD OR coils and used the 3rd gen 5100 part number up front set at 0 on my truck, rides awesome.
